Exfoliate Skin with Natural Honey

18 November 2020

Delicious honey is nature’s best bet for anyone looking for “natural” antibiotics. It is multi-purposeful, and besides residing in your kitchen, it should also be in your bedtime drawer and your makeup bag! How versatile is that? It is the beauty secret- sworn by Old Hollywood actresses and modern-day Bollywood divas.

1. Bhutan Natural Honey will soften the skin naturally by exfoliating with honey
This method may sound absurd at first, but we swear by it! It is the most natural exfoliator offered by nature, and we recommend using nature’s finest tool to smoothen out facial wrinkles and fine lines. Honey contains gluconic acids, moisturising amino acids and AHA acids (I’ve checked it out, and it should be a staple in your skincare, even the supersensitive can use them).

2. Bhutan Honey as an exfoliating mask, balances out combination skin too.

Stir the honey with lemon and brown sugar for 5 to 10 minutes or so. Apply the paste to your face and massage thoroughly. This remedy will help with the exfoliation process. After that, rinse off! If you have acne skin, add a tablespoon spoon more to strengthen the concentration of your homemade exfoliator.

3. Bhutan Honey for Freckles
Besides moisturising the skin, honey is a god-sent. It reduces redness and swelling of the skin and repairs and rejuvenates the skin. We love your freckles and honey is only there to enhance it (like a highlighter). Adorable.

4. Bhutan Honey does no lip-service, honey
It is a miracle worker! Dry, chapped lips are the bane of our existence, so get rid of your woes with honey! By again applying honey as a lip exfoliator, lips will become soft and supple again as they lock moisture. Apply them before bedtime and wake up with a beautiful pout. (Natural honey will not attract ants so leave the sticky substance on your lips when you sleep)

5. Dry, cracked heels? Honey is the antidote!
If only Achilles knew about the healing properties of honey. Honey serves a multitude of medicinal purposes and healing dry, cracked heels is one of them. We know it’s a little troubling to apply honey around the foot, but before bedtime, apply honey and then wear socks to sleep. When you wake up, you can walk with ease almost as if you’ve got a new pair of legs! (Don’t tell Achilles)

6. Smooth and silky hair, so shine with honey
Honey encourages you to shine! (Literally) To do this, a spoonful of honey and a few drops of olive oil will do the trick. Wash after applying for no more than 20 minutes. If you want to strengthen the roots of your hair, blow-dry your hair. Feel free to use more of this concoction if you want a stronger effect, but wash it after 5 minutes to see your hair shine.

7. Time heals scar so does honey
Honey contains natural enzymes that heal wounds, speeding up the skin’s recovery process. Apply honey on your scars and let it heal.

8. Honey to soothe burns and sunburns
Honey is an ancient remedy, and its history reveals the almost magical qualities that it offers to humanity. Bee-sides treating wounds, injuries, and sunburns, it provides our body with a chance to restore itself. Its therapeutic properties are unlike any other, and applying them to the affected area is equivalent to nature extending an olive branch to our abused bodies.
