The simple answer is YES! Honey is a superb product to use on your face and body. It contains naturally occurring minerals, vitamins and enzymes that can gently clean and moisturize your face and skin. Honey is also an anti-irritant which means it is well-suited for sensitive skin. If you have a cut, you can use honey to prevent infection because it is a natural antiseptic.

In addition to honey based products readily available like our Honey House Naturals line of products, you can use 100% pure honey from your grocery store to create some affordable spa-like treatments at home.

As a daily facial cleanser, mix 1/2 teaspoon of honey with 1/8 teaspoon of powdered milk. Apply a thin coat of this wholesome mixture to your face using gentle outward movements. Rinse completely with warm water and pat dry lightly. Your face will be clean of all dirt and makeup and your skin will feel great!

For a healthy scalp and shiny hair, combine 1/2 cup of honey and 2 tablespoons of olive oil. Use liberally throughout your hair and scalp. Pile your hair up on the top of your head and let the honey concoction work its magic! After 30 minutes, shampoo and rinse your hair as normal. What until you see how shiny your hair is!

Would you like a facial toner made from all-natural ingredients? Try mixing 1 tablespoon of honey with 1 apple (peeled and cored). Place both ingredients in a blender or food processor and use the ‘pulse’ action to completely combine the two ingredients. Using your fingertips, gently apply the mixture to your face. Wait 15-30 minutes and rinse the blend of apple and honey from your face with warm water. Gently pat dry. You will not believe how good this mixture will make your skin feels and it smells great, too!

Please, be sure you are not allergic to honey or the other ingredients before you try any of these wholesome recipes and mixtures.
