Benefits of Honey

I’ve always loved honey especially in my tea, and even in my lattes. I have more recently switched to both Manuka Honey and Raw Honey as well but my favorite honey is local. I love when I find local honey because I feel like it keeps all the allergies away. In case you don’t love honey as much as I do here are some reasons that just make you dust off your jar.
A few years ago, I learned about the very powerful effects of honey for skin when I worked at Guerlain. This made me curious about the effects. Their luxurious products were of course a specific type of honey from an exotic island, but I thought would regular honey have similar effects too? Did you know that honey is antibacterial and anti-inflammatory? What an amazing gift from nature. We all know honey is great for health or when you have a cough, but what about beauty benefits? First off honey is very moisturizing so it’s great for dry skin. Yes, it can get messy; so perhaps either make a mask with honey as its main ingredient to wash off or look out for beauty products that contain honey. Honey is also great for acne because it kills bacteria and calms down the swelling. Ever burn yourself with a hot tool? Did you know honey even helps with burns? It even helps heal cuts. Honey also helps fight off dandruff or an itchy scalp.
