5 Top Benefits of Honey for Gorgeous Skin


Delicious and healthy, honey is one of the best all-natural products used in the beauty industry. Thanks to its outstanding health-beneficial properties, honey can help counter various skin conditions such as acne, aging, pore cleansing, treatment for sunburns, and it is also ensures thorough skin revitalization. This makes honey an all-in-one organic tonic for both internal and external use. When thinking about taking it for the internal benefit, Gold Bee is the best place to go.

Honey’s Top Five Skin Perfecting Benefits

1. Complexion booster
Due to its soothing and moisturizing nature, raw honey can be used to revitalize a sagging complexion. Honey also  adds a touch of radiance to dry, parched skin. To get the most out of your delicious skincare routine, use honey as a facial mask.  First, clean your face well with a damp cloth or wash it with water and light soap, then apply a thin layer of honey by gently massaging it into your skin. Leave the mask to sit for 30 minutes, and then rinse it off with warm water. What you’ll get is a silky, well-nourished skin that looks healthy - and feels good to be in, too.

2. Pore cleanser

Honey also helps unclog blocked pores, so it will make a great home-made exfoliator. Prepare a paste with 2/3 honey and 1/3 baking soda (the latter will boost the exfoliating effects without causing skin irritation), then apply the mixture to the face, neck and other parts of your body in need of a quick dead cell removal regimen. Rub in the blend carefully, leave it on for about 10-15 minutes, rinse it out, and then enjoy a smooth, soft skin for weeks on end.
You can always use skin care products that contain honey, too. Don’t forget to make sure they are 100% pure organic skin care products.

3. Acne treatment
Known for its antibacterial effects, honey is a perfect home acne preventive and remedy. In case of a severe breakout, apply a dab of honey onto the pimples using a cotton swab and leave it onuntil it’s dry, then wash it off.  For persistent acne, a paste prepared from honey and cinnamon may prove to be helpful. Start the process by applying the mixture to the problematic area, and let it soak overnight. Wash your face with lukewarm water in the morning, and avoid makeup until the acne area clears. You can also boost the effects of this skin care regimen by adding several drops of tea tree and lavender oil to the mixture.

4. Anti-ageing effect

Honey contains antioxidants, organic compounds that help prevent cell damage, combat inflammation, and minimize the negative effects of free radicals that lead to aging. For this reason, honey may prove an invaluable ally in prevention of wrinkles, fine lines,  and acne scarring. Turn back the clock with a concoction prepared from honey and milk (or curd), and then coat over your face in a thin layer. Leave the paste to dry overnight, or allow it at least a couple of hours to soak. Rinse your face with lukewarm water afterwards, and check the mirror for the regimen effects.

5. Sunburn treatment
According to numerous medical studies, honey can also be highly efficient in treatment of sunburns and similar heat-induced wounds. With a range of antiseptic, moisturizing, and antibacterial effects, honey contributes to prompt healing of deep and/or large sunburns. For a speedy recovery,regularly apply raw honey to the vulnerable parts of your skin. You’ll  find that time is not the only organic healer – honey’s just as effective, and it tastes great too.

Whether you decide to use it in your diet or beauty regimen, you cannever go  wrong with honey. A natural formula for overall well-being, the bee nectar will keep all your needs covered 24/7 with a premium quality film of sweetness and health.

Beach/Poolside Essentials

Beach/Poolside Essentials
Apologies that this post is so late, I have no idea where the pictures for this post went - scary. But, whilst on the beach in Mauritius I wanted to share with you my Beach/Poolside essentials, things that I just have to have with me.


Reading Material // I love having a trashy magazine to read whilst soaking up the sun, but on a flight that was 16 hours the magazines were all finished. The HELLO! Fashion magazine that I picked up came with a free book from Lindsey Kelk, author of the Shopaholic series and this is her new collection of books and I whizzed through it. A great read.

Sun Lotion (Body + Face) // For the body I love using the Aloha Ultralite Sun Lotion it is a non-greasy formula and sinks into the skin as soon as you apply it. Sunscreen is a hate of mine but a love as well as it protects you. And I personally prefer applying a separate one on my face like this one from Eucerin it came in the LIB box, a product that I wasn't expecting to love but do. I took it to Germany and Mauritius with me, and need to buy another one due to it nearly running out on me and summer in mind is still happening!

Lip Balm // Something I picked up last minute at the airport, as my lips were extremely dry from all the travelling. I also tended to opt for only lip balm on my lips during the day and not the 100 lipsticks that I packed with me.

Insect Repellent // This is a must when your in a country where little insects are flying around everywhere. These are actually wipes that I found in the Poundshop, and actually worked really well.

Hand Wipes // Another necessity wherever you go in the world/near sand where everything gets really messy and these smell amazing so I couldn't resist getting them.

Glasses Holder// A very fancy and boring accessory to have, but this allows me to wear my glasses and swim so I don't have to be blind. They clip on to the back like a headband and you can find them in Boots!


What are you essentials? 

 

BeautyCrowd Haul

It was a late night and my eyes were half asleep, so that meant I was bound to do some damage online...


L.A Girls Pro Concealer - £5.00 

This was the main reason for a small haul as both my self and Aamira wanted to try this concealer out, and I knew that if I didn't order it on a whim then I wouldn't ever order it. The Pro Concealer is so talked about in the beauty world, I knew that it would be worth the investment. It is very different to any concealer I have ever used as it isn't a dofer/sponge applicator, its a brush?! Very bizarre but the coverage and longevity of it is amazing - maybe a review very soon?

Bell Hypoallergenic Lipstick

BeautyCrowd Haul

BeautyCrowd Haul

Bright pink lips are slowly becoming my new favorite thing, they are something different to my usual nude or red lips and the change is perfect for the summer (well when the weather is nice). The formula of this mositurising lipstick is very soft on the lips and it almost makes the lip stick sheer in a way, so you can wear it without it been too heavy.

What a small haul, but I wanted to share BeautyCrowd with you all, as if you didn't know you can buy so may USA brands on there such as L.A Girls and Milani! Be sure to have a browse...

It has been forever since I last did an outfit post, but now that is all changing with me promising you at least one a week. To kick it all off, I am starting with the Luxemme Olivie Lace Trim Two Piece. The two piece is LIMITED EDITION, so if you want it after reading this post then make sure you get to it quickly!

No wonder it's limited edition as it is beautiful, it's all white and then has lace detailing on the bottom of the top and the skirt, making it casual and elegant at the same time. I adore the lace trimming as it doesn't make me feel as conscious about showing off too much skin, and it sits nicely too.

I am loving wearing everything white at the moment due to the lovely tan I have caught from my holidays and to keep it simple I paired it with silver accessories and black shoes, so that the outfit is the main view point. I have become part of the Luxemme blogging group, so expect a lot of them very soon!

The Olivie Lace Trim retails at £35, and is available from Luxemme!
