At-Home Honey Beauty Tips
cosmetic skincare+ making – When you think of beauty tips, do you think of the sweet stuff? I know that I love a good chocolate facial, just for starters. There is also sweet stuff like sugar scrubs or vanilla steams.
But all that stuff is expensive. The last spa visit I had cost me way over 150 dollars Luckily, there are quite a few ways to give yourself the same sweet treatments in your own home. The basis for these awesome facials and masques? Of course it’s honey.
Read below for a few in-home uses for honey that will leave you feeling luscious and wonderful in no time:
* Honey Do Beauty Tip #1: Be bubblicious. - A cup of honey in your bubble bath leaves skin feeling soft and smooth. Exfoliate with a loofah while you’re in there for extra creamy, glowing skin. Add 4 tablespoons of whole milk powder and feel just like Cleopatra, who used milk baths to keep her skin clear. When you use edible products in your bath, you must make sure to rinse down very well afterwards.
* Beauty Tips With Honey #2: Use a few different layers. - 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. Open up your pores first by putting a hot cloth on your face for 3 minutes. Smooth the mask over your face. Let it dry for ten minutes. Wash it off your face with lukewarm water and you an admire your youthful skin.
* Honey Do Beauty Tip #3: Make your own silky-skin toner. - Honey, buttermilk and rosewater mixed together can do wonders for your skin. A Tupperware with a screw-on lid works great. Thoroughly blend by shaking together really good. You will end up with a mixture that is quite runny and cloudy in color. Then apply it with a cotton ball for tight and toned skin.
Use the highest quality honey for these treatments. For much less than 20 dollars, you can buy a good sized jar of organic honey that hasn’t been chemically treated. Use this jar of honey for these beauty tips for a good while.
