i use brown sugar as an exfoliant. and honey as a mask. the brown sugar, for me is less harsh on my skin than white sugar. and honey moisturizes really well. leave it on for 10 minutes. my skin feels great afterwards.

Sugar is only good for exfoliating. It's not like your skin will thank you if it absorbs some sugar. Honey is moisturizing and soothing when applied.
Some people think that eating these things will cause acne.

Yes, sugar is mainly used as in exfoliater. Which means its crystal like texture is used to sloff off the outer layer of your skin which is usually made up dead skin cells. This is why alot of body scrubs use sugar. Honey is good as a moisturizer or joint ingredient in skincare items. Its also use to soothe sunburn and scrapes, somewhat like aloe vera.

Sugar is a good exfoliant, not much more. I like mixing sugar and olive oil, then rubbing it on my lips to make them red and soft. I would steer-clear of homemade remedies if you're trying to make the skin on your face healthy. Talk to a dermatologist or aesthetician (who you see when you get a facial) to see what he/she recommends.

Actually, you can use anything to exfoliate your skin. Coffee grounds, oatmeal, etc.
