My Jamaican Honey

Ok, so by now you would have realized that I have a kick for natural skin care remedies.  I have tried high end skincare brands, drug store brands but I always gravitate to natural skin care products.  One of my favourite skin care luxury is the raw Jamaican honey.  There is none like it.  It helps to heal my break outs with its anti-bacterial and anti-inflammatory properties.  But my favourite way to use our Jamaican honey is to make my own face and body scrubs and masks.

For my face and body scrub, I usually combine Jamaican brown sugar and Jamaican coffee with the honey.  The honey moisturizes and heals; the brown sugar exfoliates and the coffee doubles as an exfoliant and an anti-aging ingredient.  This scrub is great for improving the overall texture of your skin.

I also love to use honey for masks.  My lemon and honey mask leaves the face so smooth and glowy.  It’s pretty easy to make. Just get a fresh lemon, squeeze about a ½ tbsp. and combine it with a 1 1\2 tbsp. of honey.  You can grate some of the lemon zest and add it to the mixture if you so desire (Skip this step if you have sensitive skin).  This mask helps to treat dark spots and evens out the skin tone.

All the products mentioned can be found at Fontana and in your kitchen…so go on and get creative with your skin care…Until next time stay gorgeous…..
