Things You need to do

Honey Liquid soap Dried milk Water Dried apricots Witch hazel Lemon juice Egg yolk Olive oil

Instructions:

• Mix equal parts of honey and a mild liquid soap for a facial and body cleanser. Because honey is high in potassium, it is excellent for fighting bacteria and impurities in the skin.

• Take an electric blender and blend 1 tbsp. of honey, 1 tbsp. of dried milk, 1/4 cup of water and 1/4 cup of dried apricots to create a rejuvenating facial mask. Leave on the face for 15 minutes and rinse thoroughly. These combined ingredients brighten and moisturize the skin.

• Combine 1 tbsp. of honey, 2 tbsp. of witch hazel and 1 tsp. of lemon juice to make a pore refining facial toner. Let it sit for a few days before using to allow the honey to lose its stickiness. Keep the toner refrigerated.

• Mix 1 tbsp. of honey, 1 egg yolk and 1 tsp. of olive oil to make a nourishing hair conditioner. Use one to two times a week on hair that is brittle from dry weather conditions. Honey and lemon juice may have some highlighting effects, so keep this in mind when determining how frequently to use this conditioner.

• Use 1/4 to 1/2 cup of pure honey, depending on hair length, as a hair mask to restore color, body and shine. Wrap honey-saturated hair in plastic and leave on for 25 minutes.
