Honey
Honey is definitely a food of the Gods. More than just a sweet treat, it has been used in health and beauty for centuries.
Honey contains a variety of antioxidants and its antimicrobial properties have been effective in the treatment of wounds and burns. It has shown promise in inhibiting the growth of a range of bacteria and fungi and is also successful as a cough suppressant in children over 12 months of age.
Widely used in the beauty industry, it does wonders for the skin and is my favorite facial. It is a humectant meaning it attracts and retains moisture, it evens the skin tone particularly redness, it is an anti-irritant, making it suitable for sensitive skin and baby care products and is a gentle exfoliant, removing dead skin cells leaving your skin glowing.
Honey Facial
After a shower spread a layer of honey (not too thick or thin) over your entire face.
Sit back and relax for 10 minutes. Place a towel on your chest to catch any drips.
Rinse with warm (not hot) water. It rinses off surprisingly well!
Pat dry.
*Use no more than 3x per week as it may slightly lighten skin if used more than that.
Honey's magickal uses include: fertility, purification, romance and attracting happiness.
