Honey


Honey’s reputation as a beauty aid is well founded. Many famous women in history are known to have used honey to enhance their beauty. Even those women who are not famous have used honey. One of the reasons for its popularity is that it readily available; honey is in many kitchen spa recipes.

Honey is found in lotions, soaps, crèmes, and even sunscreen. The properties in honey make it the best all around skin care product.

It is a humectant, meaning it pulls moisture out the air to itself and retains that moisture. It’s antimicrobial and antiseptic properties makes it excellent for acne because it keeps the infections clean. This also helps reduce redness and irritation. Since ancient times people have utilized these properties in honey to form a protective seal over wounds to keep bacteria out and to speed healing.

The antioxidants in honey work to improve skin tone and elasticity, reducing scarring. Honey is also found sunscreen. Research has found that honey protects the skin from the UV rays that damage skin and even aids in cell regeneration; healing damage already caused by the sun.

Honey’s wholesome and natural image has endured through generations for good reason. We at Wild Natural Beauty are excited to have products with honey as a primary ingredient. We welcome you to visit our website for these featured items; Honey Bar soap and Sweet Harvest Natural Lotion.
