Besides uneven, dull and patchy skin, another bee in a woman\u2019s bonnet is the dry skin. Changing weather conditions, harsh chemicals in soaps, consuming less water, etc. dehydrates our skin, giving us a rough and coarse appearance. Fortunately, it is easier to cure than it looks. We can look for a cure in our own kitchen. A rule of thumb is, if it is good enough to eat, then it is good enough to apply on the skin. \u00a0With its humectants, antibacterial and anti-inflammatory properties, it is a good bet to apply honey on dry skin.<\/p>\n

You can use honey as a moisturizer to moisturize your dry skin, as a hydrating face mask or even to keep your wrinkles at bay. Here\u2019s looking at some of the easy and useful ways of using honey to treat your skin.<\/p>\n

Trivia Time!<\/strong><\/p>\n

Did you know that in order to make about one pound of honey, honey bees need to gather nectar from more than two million flowers? And in order to make that much of honey, bees need to fly about 90,000 miles! An average bee makes only one-twelfth of a teaspoon of honey in its lifetime. Interesting, isn\u2019t it?<\/p>\n

WHY SHOULD YOU USE HONEY FOR DRY SKIN?<\/h2>\n

Honey with its smooth texture and humectants properties, is an excellent moisturizer for dry skin. It keeps the skin supple and baby-like soft.<\/p>\n

Dry skin and clogged pores go hand in hand. Honey is a natural cleansing agent which helps to unclog the pores giving a radiant and glowy skin.<\/p>\n

Dry skin starts showing signs of aging earlier than other types of skin. Are you bogged with wrinkle and fine lines? Keep a bottle of honey with you, for younger looking youthful skin.<\/p>\n

Rinse it with water.<\/p>\n
