Honey Bath. If you don’t have time to pat-and-glow, just add 1/4 cup or so of
honey to your bath. Mmmm—sweet, silky, and luscious skin.
Honey Shiny Hair. Mix 1 teaspoon
honey, a squeeze of fresh
lemon, and 1 quart of warm
water. After shampooing, simply pour through hair. Let your hair dry as you normally would; you don’t need to rinse it out.
Moisturizing Honey Mask. Mix 2 tablespoons
honey and 2 teaspoons
milk or cream. Smooth on face and allow to remain for 10 minutes, then rinse.
Good-Enough-to-Eat Facial Cleansing Scrub. Combine 1 tablespoon
honey, 1 tablespoon finely-ground
almonds, 2 tablespoons dry
oatmeal, and enough
lemon juice to moisten. Massage mixture gently onto face, then rinse with warm water.
Honey Hair Conditioning Treatment. This great formula combines the benefits of honey and olive oil for lustrous, silky, healthy hair and scalp. Simply combine 1/2 cup
honey and 2 tablespoons to 1/4 cup
olive oil (depending on the dryness of your hair and scalp). Saturate hair and scalp with this conditioner, then put on a shower cap and allow the conditioner to remain for 30 minutes before you shampoo and rinse as usual.
