DIY: Honey face mask!

Have you ever thought of using honey as a face mask? Honey is so good for you skin, not only is it antibacterial its also has lactic acid in it which the acidic properties in it which can exfoliate your skin.

Honey can also reduce your acne! Who knew honey was so good for your skin? I think Cleopatra knew!

How to make your face mask:

  • There are many different ways to use the honey face mask, you can use it on its own or use it with something else.
  • Put a small amount of honey in your hands and rub into your skin, leave on for 5-10 minutes (I left mine on for 20 mins)
  • Mix 2 tablespoons of honey with 3 tablespoons of yogurt into it and apply to the face leave for 5-10 minutes.
  • The way to remove the face masks: rinse with warm water and rub the face mask off.
I find honey really soothing when on my face it doesn't irritate and is gentle. 

What honey do I need to use?
You can use any honey the best is raw, manuka and natural from a farm near you, if you cant get hold of these don't worry any honey will do.
One of the great things about a honey face mask is its edible! And smells really good!
