4 ways how to use HONEY

In the past few months I have started to do a little bit of research on some more natural skincare products and options. In the past when I couldn't afford to buy nice skincare, I used to do my own treatments. I once found an old book in our house called herbalist and loved to find treatments in our kitchen to help my skin.

In there I found a perfect SPOT TREATMENT recipe: just mix teaspoon of honey with teaspoon with cinnamon and apply on your spots ("future", starting or existing) and leave for up to 20-30 minutes and rinse with warm water. It always helped with my blemishes. But as I was doing more research, HONEY has got so much more to offer:

Honey not only helps with ACNE, but also AGEING (as it full of antioxidants helping you fight environmental damage better), PORES and BOOSTING YOUR HEALTHY COMPLEXION.

Honey is great used for a FACE MASK as well. Just taking a spoon of honey, generously apply to the face and leaving up to an hour. Giving you all the benefits of clearing up the blemishes as it is antibacterial and antiseptic, giving anti-oxidants, giving complexion healthy radiance and smoothness. You can make your own face masks, just adding honey as an extra ingredient. Ancient women used to mix it with milk to keep the skin plump and hydrated. 

Honey can work for your hair as well as a HAIR MASK. Honey helps to brighten the hair, so again mixing with your favourites for hair makes a great mask. You can mix honey, coconut oil and lemon for lightening the hair or whipped cream if you like. Just mix the texture, apply to dry hair and leave for as much as you can (best to leave overnight) and wash as you would normally do (I personally like to use shampoo twice to make sure everything is properly washed out).

And the last of my favourites uses is to use it as a CLEANSER. I personally just use it as my everyday cleanser, just take teaspoon, put to damp hands, apply to dry skin and massage, add water and rinse off.  I found that it could be a good makeup remover for face when mixed with some kind of oil (I would either recommend olive oil or coconut oil).

There are so many options with honey, it is just amazing. You can really play around with adding your favourite other food from kitchen and find your perfect treatments. The only thing I would like to mention before I leave is to make sure you are using RAW honey, so it is not processed  (loosing any of the active enzymes and benefits).
