Hey there,
We’re constantly hearing about the many
benefits of raw, unprocessed honey. But
as it turns out, it’s also really good
for your skin!
There are lots of antibacterial products
on the market, and sometimes you need
that sort of treatment for your face. But
instead of applying something that’s
commercially made with added chemicals,
try this next time instead.
Thoroughly cleanse the spot on your skin
that needs antibacterial treatment, then
apply a teaspoon of raw, unprocessed honey
to the area and gently massage it into the
skin. Let it sit for 10 minutes and then rinse
with warm water. Repeat until the infection
is gone.
The same type of treatment can be used as
a face mask, too.
After removing all of your makeup, take a
teaspoon of honey and gently work it into
your face. And don’t worry about it stripping
your skin. Honey is very calming, so it won’t
hurt your face at all. Let it sit for 10
minutes and then rinse with warm water, just
like a regular face mask.
Raw honey is also anti-inflammatory.
Sometimes our skin needs some cooling down,
and when you’re looking to adopt a more natural
skincare routine you want to shy away from
chemicals.
So if an area on your body is irritated and
inflamed, simply take a teaspoon of honey and
let it sit for 10 minutes or so, just like the
other treatments, and then rinse off with warm
water.
Whenever possible, try to purchase locally-sourced
honey. Just make sure that it’s raw and unprocessed,
too.
If you’re really feeling luxurious, then consider
using raw honey as a mask on other parts of your
body, too. Such as your legs, arms, and even your
neck. It’s not just our face that needs some love!
These are just a few ways to use all-natural, raw
honey as part of your skincare routine.
In next week's blog, I'll discuss the benefits of
papaya as part of your natural skincare routine!
Blessings,

Adrenal Support
As we discuss recharging our bodies, I have to tell you that using these two essential oils have been a lifesaver for my adrenals!! I find nutmeg to irritate my skin on it's own, so I use a bit of coconut oil. Apply 1-2 drops of NUTMEG over adrenals (found on mid back just about an inch on either side of your spine) first thing in the morning. I then apply a drop of ENDOFLEX over my thyroid and a drop or two over my adrenals as well! Check out the picture below. The adrenal glands are the yellow on top of the kidneys.
