Sweet and Sassy Beauty Tips: Spa-Quality Uses for Honey

Do you think about sweet things when thinking about beauty tips? Just for starters, I know I like to have a nice chocolate facial. Then there are the sweet things like vanilla steams, spice wraps and sugar scrubs.

Nevertheless, all that stuff is pretty expensive. The last spa visit I had cost me way over 150 dollars But you can, fortunately, give yourself the same sweet treatments at home with these beauty tips. What is the base ingredient for these facials and masques? Honey, naturally.

Read below for a few in-home uses for honey that will leave you feeling luscious and wonderful in no time:

* Beauty Tips Using Honey #1: Bubbles are great - If you want really soft and smooth skin, just add a cup of honey to your bubble bath. Exfoliate with a loofah while you’re in there for extra creamy, glowing skin. Then add 4 tablespoons of whole milk powder and you will feel like Cleopatra, who once used milk bathes to help keep her skin clear. When you use edible products in your bath, you must make sure to rinse down very well afterwards.

* Your Honey Do Beauty Tip #2: Layering is fun. - An egg white mask can be made by whipping egg whites, a tablespoon of honey and a small amount of flour or unsweetened cocoa together to make a really thick paste. Then put a hot wash cloth on your face for about three minutes to open up your pores. Then smooth the mask on. Keep it on for 10 minutes. Wash it off your face with lukewarm water and you an admire your youthful skin.

* Honey Do Beauty Tip #3: Make your own silky-skin toner. - You can have a great toner by using honey, buttermilk and rosewater and mixing them in an airtight container. A Tupperware with a screw-on lid works great. Shake together until thoroughly. Its going to be a cloudy color and really runny. You may then apply it with a cotton ball and your skin will be beautiful and toned.

When making these kinds of treatments, use the best honey. You just need a good sized jar of organic honey, which is less than 20 dollars, that hasn't been treated with chemicals or preservatives. You can use this for your honey do beauty tips for months to come.
