Want to try a few effective at-home remedies without spending a fortune on expensive products? I was recently reading up on many healthy, natural foods that do wonders not only to your health, but also provides a plethora of beauty benefits.
Enter Nature Nate’s 100% pure, raw and unfiltered honey.
I’m sure many of you know that honey can also be applied externally to help moisturize, sooth irritations, clear up acne, and even zap away signs of aging. Nature Nate’s provides 100% pure, raw and unfiltered honey that maintains the natural enzymes and antibacterial qualities lost in most other honey brands. Combined with commonplace items found in your fridge, food on your face could be the easiest, most effective and natural solution for glowing, healthy skin. Here are a few natural beauty recipes to try at home from nature Nate’s. *My personal beauty tip: make sure you are not allergic to any of these ingredients before applying them on your skin!
1. Apply thin layer of raw, unfiltered honey to clean face and leave on for 10 minutes to an hour.
2. Rinse off with warm water, pat face dry.
3. Follow with coconut oil to moisturize (coconut oil is antibacterial as well).
1. Combine 2 tablespoons of raw, unfiltered honey with one organic egg white and apply over clean face.
2. Leave mask on skin 10-15 minutes as you feel the egg tighten.
3. Rinse with warm water.
1. Mix 1.5 teaspoons raw, unfiltered honey with 1.5 teaspoons sugar and juice from ¼ lemon.
2. Rub over lips with finger in circular motion to exfoliate; rinse.
3. Combine 1 tablespoon of coconut oil, contents of 1 vitamin E capsule and 1 drop lemon essential oil in another bowl.
4. Dab on lips to moisturize. Extras can be kept in the fridge for a week.
Nature Nate’s 100% Pure, Raw and Unfiltered Honey products are now available for purchase at www.naturenates.com and come in many bottle sizes. Price ranges from $4.99 for an 8 oz. bottle to $66.99 for one gallon pail.
