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. Then there are the sweet things like vanilla steams, spice wraps and sugar scrubs.

However, all those things are not cheap. My last holiday spa visit cost me over 150 dollars, and I did not even get a full massage! Luckily, there are quite a few ways to give yourself the same sweet treatments in your own home. What is the essence of these wonderful facials? Honey, of course.

Here are just a few home-uses for honey that will have you feeling absolutely luscious in no time:

* Beauty Tips With Honey #1: Be bubbly - A cup of honey in your bubble bath leaves skin feeling soft and smooth. You can use a loofah to exfoliate your skin while your in the tub and it will give you nice, glowing skin. Then add 4 tablespoons of whole milk powder and you will feel like Cleopatra, who once used milk bathes to help keep her skin clear. Of course, any time you bathe in any edible product, be sure to rinse down extra well afterwards.

* Beauty Tips Using Honey #2: Use layers. - Make an egg white masque by whipping egg whites, a tablespoon of honey and a little flour or unsweetened cocoa together to make a thick paste. Your pores need to be open first by putting a hot wash cloth on your face for 3 minutes. The put the mask on. Then wait for 10 minutes. Then just wash it off with warm water and love your fresh and youthful skin.

* Honey Do Beauty Tip #3: Make your own silky-skin toner. - Put a half a cup of honey, 2 cups of buttermilk and a half a cup of rosewater in an airtight container and mix together. The best kind of container to use is a Tupperware with a screw-on lid. Thoroughly blend by shaking together really good. You will end up with a mixture that is quite runny and cloudy in color. You may then apply it with a cotton ball and your skin will be beautiful and toned.

When making these kinds of treatments, use the best honey. You can purchase a nice size jar of organic honey for less than 20 dollars. You will be able to use this honey for your beauty tips for months to come
