3 Super Tips About a Honey Facial Treatment
Why on earth should people lather their faces with honey? I know men who even do it after shaving.
Cleopatra also was a fan and she got some great results.
So, what are the benefits of a honey facial? What are the best tips to follow when choosing a manuka honey face gel or other preparation? What are the benefits of honey for the skin? As we know, honey is produced from the nectar of flowers by industrious bees.
It is made up of about 80% sugar and 20% water.
Its main benefit for skin care is that it can attract water, softens the epidermis and it is also a useful natural anti-bacterial and healing agent..
Add to that the fact that it is full of antioxidants and you can see why it has been used as a honey facial for centuries and even millennia.
There are a myriad of home made recipes for a honey facial but I do not want to list them here.
Popular ingredients are rose water, oatmeal, cucumber, apple and glycerin used in various ways and combined with the honey.
1st Tip Don't choose any old honey.
Look for a manuka honey face gel or a product which has this type of honey in it.
The honey produced from the manuka tree in New Zealand has remarkable healing and antibacterial properties.
So much so that researchers have actually named this as UMF which stands for Unique Manuka Factor and measure it with a number to indicate its potency.
2nd Tip.
Choose a honey which is rich in antioxidants which can actually combat the free radicals effectively.
Honey generally is a powerful antioxidant but the most potent one is manuka honey, partially because the manuka bush is a wild plant and flourishes in an unpolluted environment.
In addition, it has been found that this type can actually stimulate the growth of collagen so a manuka honey face gel is a hot property.
Very few other topical ingredients are actually capable of this.
3rd Tip Look for a company which can actually use the manuka honey in its products and still preserve all the active properties it contains, even after all the manufacturing processes.
Not many companies can successfully do this but the company mentioned in my website below actually sends the honey to the USA for processing into a powder form.
This is then used in their honey facial products such as masks and creams.
So, there you have it.
Don't be fobbed off with any old honey.
Look for the best in the world to-day which is produced in a pollution free environment.
