When you think of beauty tips, do you think of the sweet stuff? I know that I love a good chocolate facial, just for starters. Then there are the many different sugar scrubs and spice wraps.

But all those things are really costly. I didn’t even get a full massage and my last spa visit cost me over 150 dollars. But, there are a ton of different ways to give yourself some of these sweet treatments. The basis for these awesome facials and masques? It’s honey.

Below are just a few uses for honey that will leave you feeling delicious and beautiful:

* Beauty Tips Using Honey #1: Bubbles are great - If you want really soft and smooth skin, just add a cup of honey to your bubble bath. If you want an extra glow to you skin, exfoliate with a loofah while in the tub. Add 4 tablespoons of whole milk powder and feel just like Cleopatra, who used milk baths to keep her skin clear. When you use edible products in your bath, you must make sure to rinse down very well afterwards.

* Beauty Tips With Honey #2: Use a few different layers. - Make an egg white masque by whipping egg whites, a tablespoon of honey and a little flour or unsweetened cocoa together to make a thick paste. Then put a hot wash cloth on your face for about three minutes to open up your pores. Then smooth the mask on. Let it dry for ten minutes. Your skin will be beautiful when you wash off the mask.

* Beauty Tips With Honey #3: Just make your own toner. - Put a half a cup of honey, 2 cups of buttermilk and a half a cup of rosewater in an airtight container and mix together. A Tupperware container with a screw-on lid is perfect Shake up the mixture until it is thoroughly blended. It will be runny and a cloudy color. Then apply it with a cotton ball for tight and toned skin.

The best honey should be used for these treatments. You just need a good sized jar of organic honey, which is less than 20 dollars, that hasn’t been treated with chemicals or preservatives. You can use this for your honey do beauty tips for months to come.
