Magic of Honey for your skin




Honey is great for the skin. It can be used directly on the skin as a mask or added with other ingredients. The following recipes are designed to be mixed and used immediately. Honey will only suspend ingredients for a short period of time. We have retail ready honey spa products at Essential Wholesale for those wishing to create a product line from honey.
      
There are plenty of reasons to add honey to your beauty regimine for all skin types. Honey is a well known antibacterial and antifungal agent. It is rich in vitamins, minerals, and amino acids.
