Wash Your Face With Honey!
I have cleansed, toned and moisturised my face for just about every day for over 30 years (now I'm feeling old!). It is part of my daily routine, and it just doesn't feel right when I can't do it. I buy all my skincare through a fantastic New Zealand natural skincare company - Oasis Beauty, which I love. They are currently out of stock of my cleanser and I'm completely out. I was wondering what I could do in the meantime, other than use soap (which of course I could use but I think that would be too drying). And I thought "Of course! Honey!"
I got about a teaspoon or so of Sweetree Honey in the palm of my hand, added a touch of water and massaged it over my face, then let it sit for a while. Of course it is sticky so you need to make sure you pull back your hair! Then I rinsed it off. It's quick and easy to do and feels great afterwards!
On further research honey is meant to be amazing at dissolving makeup, especially when mixed with a dash of coconut or jojoba oil and mix in a little bit of turmeric or nutmeg. Mix this into a balm type texture that is slippery enough to slide across your face. Massage this over your face and it will loosen up heavy makeup and moisturise your skin at the same time.
Give it a try!
