“HONEY” for SKIN CARE!
I got the information below from their site at:
 REALLY RAW HONEY! The best HONEY ever! After eating this honey you won't want to go back to the jelly type. I buy this honey at whole foods, but you can buy it from their website.
 FACIAL TREATMENT 1 / 3 cup finely ground oatmeal 3 tablespoon Really Raw Honey , or enough to make a smooth paste 1 tablespoon rose water or orange flower water Blend oatmeal with honey until well mixed. If too thick and unmanageable, add a little rose water or orange flower water. Spread over clean face with the exception of your eyes and leave on for ½ hour. Relax while it is on. Remove this, a good astringent should be applied to tone the skin.
FACIAL CLEANSER 2 tablespoons finely ground almonds 1 tablespoon Really Raw Honey 1/2 tablespoon lemon juice Blend almonds, honey and lemon juice. rub gently into face. rinse with warm water
SOOTHING SKIN CLARIFIER FOR ACNE 1/2 cup warn water 1/4 tablespoon salt Dab of Really Raw Honey Mix warm water and salt. Using a cotton ball, apply mixture directly to blemish. Maintain pressure with cotton ball for several minutes, to soften blemish. Using a cottton swab, dab Really Raw Honey on blemish; leave on 10 minutes. Rinse and pat dry. You can use a dab of Really Raw Honey anytime on blemishes!
FACIAL TONER 1 peeled cored apple 1 tablespoon Really Raw Honey In a blender puree apple and honey. Smooth over face. Leave on 15 minutes. Rinse with cold water.
FIRMING FACIAL MASK 1 egg white 1 tablespoon Really Raw Honey 1 teaspoon glycerin Flour Wisk together egg white, honey, and glycerin. Add flour to form a paste. Smooth over face and throat. Leave on 10 minutes. Wash off with warm water.
FACE LOTION 1 tablespoon sweet almond oil 2 tablesppons honey Blend together. This lotion should be used after the skin has been thoroughly cleansed. Leave on skin for ½ hour. Remove with a soft cloth and tepid water.
FACE SCRUB 1 / 2 cup almond meal Really Raw Honey Mix to form a thick paste. Scrub face with paste, paying close attention to oily areas. Leave on for a few minutes. Remove with tepid water and a soft cloth. Your skin will be soft and refreshed!
SKIN SOFTENING BATH Add 1/4 cup of Really Raw Honey to water for a fragrant silky bath.

HAIR SHINE 4 cups (1 Quart) Water 1 teaspoon Really Raw Honey 1/4 teaspoon lemon juice This recipe is for those who wish to use shampoo in addition to honey but shampoo is not necessary. Honey cleans in addition to aiding the health of the hair and scalp. Mix water, honey, and lemon juice. After shampooing, pour mixture through hair. Do not rinse out. Dry as normal.

Hi! I wanted to return the blog visit and thank you for taking the time to comment. I appreciate the encouragement, and want to encourage you at the same time. Homesteading is a one step at a time journey, with lots of ups and downs! It's amazing though, how quickly the experiences accumulate. Amazing and gratifying as well.
