Honey & Beauty

Honey as it nourishes the body, thus nourishes the skin and for centuries was used in preparations related to beauty.

Cleopatra is said to have bathed in milk and honey.

Dry, tired skins can gain new shine and elasticity by using pastes made of honey and bran.

Honey can be used alone or mixed with a few drops of apple vinegar or lemon juice, both of which have astrinstic properties for oily skins.

None of these ointments are pleasant to use, because they are too sticky, but can be removed easily, after being left on the face for about half an hour, with a little hot water.

For baged, tired skin around the eyes, put a mixture of egg white and honey.

The moisture that honey contains acts on dried, chapped skins and vitamins and minerals nourish every skin type more effectively than synthetic cosmetics, because honey is a natural substance without chemical additives, Today recipes and medicines transmitted from generation to generation may seem like graphic folk oddies in this age of accumulated knowledge , but if women who were interested in their beauty and who were not able to have the wide variety of creams and lotions circulating today, discovered that honey helped them, we can at least learn from their experience. *
