How To Make The Face Mask

The key ingredients for this facial mask are honey and cinnamon.

Honey is one of the healthiest natural foods and it can be used to increase the energy level and to enhance the immune system.
It is great to treat colds, burns and various wounds, but also to prepare dermato-cosmetics face masks.

Did you know that to raise 500g of honey, bees must visit 2 million flowers?
It is amazing, right? 🙂
This sweet ingredient was highly appreciated by Cleopatra which used to frequently bathe in milk and honey.
Milk acids nourish dry skin, while the enzymes in honey make your complexion soft.
This natural product has beneficial effects in fighting acne.
Honey has good antibacterial properties and contributes to disinfect the skin. It also reduces and heals red spots.
