What to do with crystallized honey at the bottom of the honey jar?
Leftover crystallized honey at the bottom of your honey jar? Don't throw it out, make a mask/body scrub! It makes the perfect exfoliant for your face or body.
Honey is not only a great natural sweetener, it is also great for your skin.
Did you know:
- Honey has natural antibacterial properties, which means it can help prevent and treat acne by inhibiting the growth of bacteria that can cause breakouts.
- Honey is a natural humectant that helps retain moisture in the skin. This can make the skin feel soft and smooth.
- Honey has anti-inflammatory properties, which can aid in reducing redness and irritation in the skin.Â
- Honey is rich in antioxidants, which can help to protect the skin from damage caused by free radicals. This can, in turn, slow down the aging process and keep the skin looking youthful.
Let's not waste the honey and keep our skin looking youthful by doing this honey face mask!
Soothing Face mask:
1 Tablespoon Ground oats
1 teaspoon honey
1 teaspoon yogurt
1. Mix everything together. Using a spoon or fork, mix all of the ingredients together until you have a thick paste. If the mixture is too thick and clumpy, then add a little more honey or yogurt.
2. Apply your face mask to a clean face. Using your fingers, start gently massaging the mask into your face, using circular motions. Apply the mask into your forehead, nose, cheekbones, and jaw. Do not apply it on your mouth or eyes.
3. Leave the mask on your face. Let the mask sit on your face for 10 to 15 minutes
Rinse the mask off. Using cool water, gently wash the face mask off. Be sure to use the same circular, massaging motions that you used to put the mask on.
4. Once your face is clean, follow up with your usual skincare regime.
