Honey Facial | 10 min

Refresh your skin, sweetly, with this natural beauty practice.

Setting the scene for honey facials: a beverage & a soft place to relax to let the honey soak in.

Applying raw (unprocessed) honey to your face feels really good.

Energy: Raw, unprocessed honey has both moisturizing and antimicrobial properties. Your skin feels soft and smooth even the day after, and it feels good to be so sweet to yourself.

Season: Delicious in Fall, moisturizing in winter, and especially fun in summer if you're near a lake where you can jump in to rinse off.

Perfect For: Anyone ready for a sweet refresh (and no honey allergy). You can do it by yourself, with a friend, or as a group for a ladies' weekend or retreat activity.
