HONEY BENEFITS<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

As you may have noticed, many of the do-it-yourself recipes on my blog include honey. It is one of my favorite ingredients! Honey has natural antiseptic properties that can be very effective at treating breakouts. I prefer raw honey because it has more nutrients in it. There are many references in the Bible about honey, which make me love it even more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

MAKE A MASK<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

An alternative to putting honey directly on blemishes is to make your own facial mask<\/a>. You can make a simple mask by mixing honey with a little bit of oil (almond, grape seed, jojoba or olive). If you add ground oats to the mask, it can help reduce redness and irritated skin. Mix your mask together and leave on for approximately 5 minutes. Rinse off completely and finish with a good night cream.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

MILK AND HONEY BATH<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Honey was used in Biblical times mostly to sweeten the food. <\/span>The most famous historical uses for honey are Cleopatra’s milk and honey baths.
