I love honey. Here at my healing arts center I sell this gorgeous raw, unpasteurized honey from my dear friend Brett at Herb Guy's Honey House. Today I decided it was time to give myself a loving and moisturizing honey mask. Here's how to do it:
Honey Massage Mask from Stephanie Tourles: Organic Body Care Recipes:
"This is a delicious, sweet way to soften, deeply hydrate, and moisturize your skin. This treatment leaves skin with a rosy glow resulting from increased circulation.
Ingredients: 2-3 teaspoons fresh, raw honey at room temperature
Recommended for: all skin types, especially dry, dehydrated, sunburned, windburned, mature, or environmentally damaged skin.
Follow with: moisturizer if necessary
Blending tools: small spoon
Application tips: Honey thins and gets runnier as it warms to skin temperature, so be sure to wear a shower cap or pull your hair off your face and neck prior to application. Using your fingers, apply a very thin coat of honey to your entire face, neck and decollete. When the honey is spread evenly, it will bead on your skin much like water beads on your car after a rain shower. Leave on for 15 minutes or longer while you lay down and rest. Your skin will begin to feel very warm and relaxed. Don't fall asleep! Before rinsing, for about 5 minutes, begin to pat your skin lightly with your fingertips in quick tapping motions, as though you are playing the piano. Rinse using a very warm, damp cloth." ~Stephanie Tourles, 2007.
Stephanie's book is a marvelous resource and I recommend it highly!
