How to Use Honey for Beauty Tips, Tricks and Treatments
Do you ever think about anything sweet when it comes to beauty tips? For starters, I love to have a yummy chocolate facial. Then there are the many different sugar scrubs and spice wraps.
But all that stuff is expensive. The last spa visit I had cost me way over 150 dollars But you can, fortunately, give yourself the same sweet treatments at home with these beauty tips. What is the base ingredient for these facials and masques? Honey, of course.
Read below for a few in-home uses for honey that will leave you feeling luscious and wonderful in no time:
* Beauty Tips With Honey #1: Be bubbly - If you want really soft and smooth skin, just add a cup of honey to your bubble bath. You can use a loofah to exfoliate your skin while your in the tub and it will give you nice, glowing skin. If you want to take a milk bath, much like Cleopatra, just add 4 tablespoons of whole milk powder to your bath. Of course, any time you bathe in edible products, be sure you rinse off really well when you are done.
* Honey Beauty Tip #2: Cake it on. - A really great egg white masque can be made by whipping egg whites, a tablespoon of honey and a tad bit of flour or unsweetened cocoa together until they make a thick paste. Then put a hot wash cloth on your face for about three minutes to open up your pores. Smooth the mask over your face. Keep it on for 10 minutes. Your skin will be beautiful when you wash off the mask.
* Beauty Tips With Honey #3: Just make your own toner. - Place a half cup of honey, 2 cups of buttermilk and a half cup of rosewater in an air-tight container. A Tupperware with a screw-on lid works great. Shake up the mixture until it is thoroughly blended. Its going to be a cloudy color and really runny. You may then apply it with a cotton ball and your skin will be beautiful and toned.
The best honey should be used for these treatments. For less than 20 dollars, you can get a good-sized jar of organic honey that has not been treated with chemicals or preservatives. You will be able to use this honey for your beauty tips for months to come
