Honey for Skin

Posted in Beauty, Girl Talk | 0 comments

I rarely ever swear but this time I would wanna swear. At least to the benefits of honey on my skin. I’ve been having a really rough time, I have breakouts all over my face, I guess hormones aren’t really very fond of me right now. Instead of panicking and stressing too much about it, I decided to just let it be and get some home-cure. It was actually my husband who introduced me to using honey as skin care solution a few years ago. Whenever I have really bad pimples or lots of black heads, I use honey on my face. I guess this is my equivalent luxury top rehab centers for skin.

I know that there are a lot of skin care products with honey as ingredient so I would deduce a lot of people get benefits from these. I just usually lather my face with pure honey or sometimes mixed with milk after cleansing, then let it sit for a while. Then I rinse off. I dunno but I find my skin really supple and dewy soft afterwards. I’ve also taken to making my own oatmeal-milk-honey scrub and I use it once a week and its really effective in peeling of dead skin and leaving my skin glowing.

And oh, aside from its benefits to my skin, I discovered taking a spoon of it daily or mixed with warm water and lemon is really great in keeping cough and colds away.
