OUR FAVOURITE RAW HONEY FACE MASKS

8 DIY Honey Facial Mask Recipes

This is one of the most remarkable uses of raw honey, whether your complaint is fine lines, dullness, acne or dryness. Spread a layer over clean, dry skin and let it sit for 15-20 minutes. Rinse. Redness will be reduced and skin will be smoothed and plumped.  Raw honey works especially well as a morning mask, to prep and smooth the face for the day ahead. Experiment using mix-ins with your honey mask, and we have included our favourite ones below:

  1. Balancing Honey and Lavender

    Mix one tablespoon of raw honey (lots of antioxidants for the skin) with 2-3 drops of Lavender essential oil. Apply to face and let sit for 15-20 minutes. Use a warm washcloth to wipe off.

  1. Radiant Honey and Lemon Facial Mask

    Mix one tablespoon of raw honey with 1-2 drops of Lemon essential oil. Apply to face and let sit for 15-20 minutes. Use a warm washcloth to wipe off. Be careful to avoid direct sun exposure within 24 hours of using the mask, as Lemon oil is photosensitive to the sun.

  1. Hydrating Honey and Yogurt Facial Mask

    Mix one tablespoon of raw honey, 2 tablespoons of plain yogurt. Apply to face and let sit for 15-20 minutes. Use a warm washcloth to wipe off.

  1. Clarifying Honey and Patchouli Facial Mask

    Mix one tablespoon of raw honey with 2-3 drops of Patchouli essential oil. Apply to face and let sit for 15-20 minutes. Use a warm washcloth to wipe off.

  1. Moisturizing Honey and Avocado Facial Mask

    Mix one tablespoon of raw honey and 1/2 ripe avocado. Apply to face and let sit for 15-20 minutes. Use a warm washcloth to wipe off.

  1. Nourishing Honey and Oatmeal Facial Mask

    Mix one tablespoon of raw honey, 2 tablespoons of cooked oatmeal. Apply to face and let sit for 15-20 minutes. Use a warm washcloth to wipe off.

  1. Exfoliating Honey and Oatmeal Facial Mask

    Mix one tablespoon of raw honey, 1 tablespoon of uncooked oatmeal (I prefer to grind in a blender to a powder rather than use whole oats for a finer, gentler exfoliation). Apply to face and let sit for 15-20 minutes. Use a warm washcloth to wipe off.

  1. Plain Honey Facial Mask

    Want a super, simple facial mask? Just apply 1-2 tablespoons of raw honey to face and let sit for 15-20 minutes. Use a warm washcloth to wipe off. It’s incredibly moisturizing and balances all skin types.
