HONEY AND ME

If there is something in life that makes me feel good, it would be beauty. I love beauty, beautiful men and women, place, objects, animals and plants. Beauty is never complicated for me, it’s an original creation and must be nurture seriously and carefully.

With life demand of working time up 16 hours currently and being exposed to different carrier of pollution, at the end of the day I may not be stress but my face will tell you that I am not beautiful.

With much effort on yoga, massage and music therapy, now I am enjoying the abundant beauty benefits of honey face overnight mask coupled with fresh milk face cleansing and strawberries face rinsing.

It’s not tiring cause before sleeping it will only take 3 to five minutes to prepare my face to sleep, then wake up beautifully.

Why honey? For almost 6 years now (now is 2011) I have been so passionate about wellness, natural beauty and healthy living by yoga and massage. If we look deeper and search over thousands of online available resources about honey, it boils down to the main and unique elements that honey has and what it does to health.

Amazing honey elements includes:

- Natural healing agent enzymes called glucose oxidase, that when combined with water, produces hydrogen peroxide, a mild antiseptic

- Antioxidants

- Flavonoids that may function as antibacterial agents.

- A humectant - great natural moisturizer

Honey provides a calming effect without irritating the skin.
