Honey has strong antioxidant properties and is a great source of enzymes, vitamins, minerals and amino acids that reduce inflammation and promote cellular regeneration, which helps keep skin youthful.
I have compiled a few easy DIY honey masks and scrubs from various sources for those days that you have run out of your facial sheet masks yet desperately need some pick-me-up concoctions, so what better way than to use what you have in your kitchen?
Honey + Salt + Olive Oil Face Mask
1 tablespoon honey
1 tablespoon salt
Few drops of olive oil
Mix everything together until the mask looks similar to caramel. Apply gently over clean, wet skin in a circular motion, making sure to avoid eye area. Leave on for about 15 minutes, then rinse. Follow up with your favorite moisturizer.
