BENEFITS OF USING A HONEY MASK FOR THE FACE AND SKIN




The use of honey for health has been done for a long time, including for skin health. Either consumed directly or using honey as a mask, is considered to provide various benefits for the skin.


Reporting from Healthline, here are some of the benefits of a honey mask for facial skin:

 

1. For facial acne, psoriasis, and eczema


Honey to treat chronic skin conditions can be used as a paste, spot-treatment, or as a face mask that is left on for a few minutes. The most important thing about using honey to treat this condition is to use unpasteurized honey, such as manuka honey.


The honey you use must still contain healthy bacteria to be effective. This will activate the immune system and help deal with inflammation and redness, as well as fade dark spots.


One way to use honey for your face is to mix it with other ingredients to make a face mask. Before doing this, make sure to do a patch test on the honey and other ingredients to make sure you won't have an allergic reaction.

 

2. Brighten the skin


Researchers have not found a direct relationship between using honey on the face and lightening dark spots. However, because honey has properties to exfoliate, using it on the face can remove dead skin cells that make the face dull.


After washing your face with soap and water, apply manuka honey or unpasteurized raw honey to your face. Or you can also dilute the honey with pure water so that it is not too sticky and easier to remove. Leave the honey on the skin for a few minutes before rinsing it off.

 

3. Fade acne scars


Honey helps the body's healing process, which can help fade acne scars. You can use honey to remove scars such as acne scars by applying it daily or as a paste on the scar site. Or you can also use it as a honey face mask as part of your daily routine.
