Whenever we think of honey our brains automatically think of taste and sweetness, we think of bees and sticky goodness, yet we now know that humans have been foraging for honey as far as 8000 years ago and using it as not only a food source, but also for far different, and surprising, purposes. As for many of us being Keto, we no longer eat it, but instead use it in different ways.
Honey contains a profound number of components that were used for many reasons throughout history, from culinary, to spiritual, ritual, health treatment, antibacterial, antiseptic, embalming, and many, many more.
However, in this video I’m going to talk about the properties and amazing benefits honey has for skincare. Using honey as a face wash is not a new thing; Cleopatra was famous for using honey on her skin and face to maintain her beauty. It’s antibacterial so it is wonderful for preventing and treating acne. These properties also make it an incredible skin detoxifier which will significantly improve the look and condition of your skin. It is also extremely soothing and moisturizing and gives your skin an amazing glow. It’s full of antioxidants which help and reduce skin sag and wrinkles, slowing down the aging process by nourishing the skin. In other words, it’s nothing short of a miracle skincare treatment and 100% natural. Of course, I recommend you keep it that way too, using only raw, organic, unprocessed honey. Many of the varieties of honey that line our store shelves today are often processed and use corn syrup, and that will do nothing, other than negatively effect you. So keep it clean and natural and give your skin the treatment it deserves.
I typically do this face wash four or five times a month, as my schedule allows, or more importantly, when my skin needs a boost and extra nourishment and glow. I mention in the video that we are literally putting hundreds of chemicals on our faces daily and honey is an excellent way of opening your pores and allowing your skin autophagy to detox it. So grab that jar and get going :) And be sure to let me know how you get on in the comments.
Thanks for watching!
