The next step is to moisturize your face with honey. Apply generous amounts of honey then rub into face and neck in a circular motion. Leave the honey on for 15 – 30 minutes. Then rinse with warm water and switch to cold water and rinse for about 15 seconds to reduce the size of pores.

This process should be repeated twice a week for the first week, and once a week for the next three weeks.

The mixture should have a thick consistency. Apply to face and leave on for 10 – 20 minutes. If you have dry skin you can add a teaspoon of honey. The oatmeal mask is very useful in calming irritated skin and reducing blemishes.

With these simple recipes you will notice the positive change in your skin texture.
