Homemade Beauty Tips and Tricks from Honey
cosmetic skincare+ making – When you think of beauty tips, do you think of the sweet stuff? I know for sure that I love a great chocolate facial. And then there are the sugar scrubs, the spice wraps and the vanilla steams.
All that stuff tends to be expensive. I didn’t even get a full massage and my last spa visit cost me over 150 dollars. Thankfully, there are many different ways to give yourself some of the same sweet treatments at home. The main ingredient for these mouthwatering facials and masques? Honey, naturally.
Here is a list of a few things you an do at home with honey that will leave you feeling luscious and beautiful:
* Your Honey Do Beauty Tip #1: Bubble baths - Just adding a cup of honey to your bubble bath will leave your skin soft and smooth. Use a loofah to exfoliate while you’re in there and you will have extra creamy and glowing skin. If you want to take a milk bath, much like Cleopatra, just add 4 tablespoons of whole milk powder to your bath. Naturally, when you are using edible products, you should rinse down really good afterwards.
* Beauty Tips With Honey #2: Use a few different layers. - You can make a wonderful egg white mask using ingredients right from your own kitchen. Then put a hot wash cloth on your face for about three minutes to open up your pores. Next smooth it on your face. Let it dry for ten minutes. Your skin will be fresh and youthful after your remove the mask with warm water.
* Honey Beauty Tip #3: You can make your own skin toner. - Get an air-tight container and mix ½ cup of honey, 2 cups of buttermilk and a ½ cup of rosewater together. The best kind of container to use is a Tupperware with a screw-on lid. Then shake the mixture until blended well. Its going to be a cloudy color and really runny. Dab a cotton ball in it and apply for tight, toned skin.
When making these kinds of treatments, use the best honey. For less than 20 dollars, you can get a good-sized jar of organic honey that has not been treated with chemicals or preservatives. Use this jar of honey for these beauty tips for a good while.
