Frugal Beauty: Wash Your Face with Honey

blogimage-honeyDon’t spend a fortune on fancy facial treatments—get a beautiful, healthy glow by washing your face with honey!

Honey is antibacterial by nature, and renowned for its healing properties. Used as a wash, it tightens your pores and moisturizes your skin. It’s also believed to help treat and control acne.

Here’s how to do it:

1. Wet your face with warm water.

2. Massage with a few drops of raw, unprocessed honey.

3. Rinse well.

It’s that easy! Alternatively, you can apply the honey as a mask. Simply spread a thin layer on your face, and let it sit for about 15 minutes before rinsing it off.

Incorporate a honey wash into your daily beauty routine—you’ll have softer, smoother skin, and you’ll save money by skipping the pricey cleansers!

    Wow! This works great!

    So glad you tried it, Sherry! I’ve made it part of my regular beauty routine; I love the fact that it’s not only inexpensive, but all-natural.

    I wash my face with honey every morning and evening, except that during the evenings, I’d follow with washing with Pears soap. I use sunscreen on a daily basis and find that honey doesnt exactly cleanse the skin squeaky-clean. However, it is perfect if used alone in the mornings!! ;) My skin is super smooth and baby soft. cant get enough of washing with honey! I simply love the honey smell on my skin even after rinsing much so that I actually look forward to washing my face! ;)

    Hi Teff–I love the honey smell too! Like you, I found that honey is not really an effective makeup remover, so nights require an additional cleanser; but it’s all I need in the morning!
