Does anyone use honey as moisturizer/cleanser?

Question

I put honey on my face once a week to cleanse and moisturize it. I notice that my face really is a lot clearer. I spread it all over my face and leave for 30 mins. Then I rinse it off with tap water. Can you try it and see if it will work for you too?

Answer 1

honey is indeed a miracle estringent, the high concentration of sugar and water sucks up impurities by osmosis. This is why it's also good to have a teaspoon of honey morning and night when you're sick with something affecting the throat.

Edit: Just for kicks, I'll try it tonight and let you know how it goes.

Edit: yeah, I used it last night, My skin felt cleaner and was softer and less oily today. good stuff.

Answer 2

I have heard of people who use one part honeycomb to 3 parts olive oil. You melt the wax to remove the impurities (which sink). They like it.
