Raiding the Honeypot / by Amy Schneider

Talking honey-based skincare on the blog this week! It's one of my favorite ingredients for two reasons, One, as a natural humectant it draws in and retains moisture and Two, it has antiseptic qualities, making it perfect for dry yet acne prone skin like mine. 

First up I can’t stop raving about OY-L skincare, this minimalist look skincare line uses zero chemicals and medical grade ingredients like the Manuka honey 20+ in their Exfoliating Manuka Mask . This product smells insanely good and leaves skin feeling soft and bright. 

This next mask is intense! Farmacy Beauty’s Honey Potion Renewing Antioxidant Hydration Mask is a warming mask - something I didn't quite realize until my face started to heat up - formulated with a mix of honey, propolis and royal jelly that revitalizes dull skin. The launch of this mask also kicked off their BEE A #HONEYSAVIOR campaign to raise awareness about the decline of the honey bee population with a portion of the proceeds going to city growers 

And lastly one of my favorite cleansers of all time, Therapi Honey Skincare’s Rose Otto Honey Gel Cleanser, an incredibly soothing and calming gel cleanser made with 90% organic ingredients like honey, yucca extracts, rose otto and rose geranium essential oils. The gel lightly emulsifies when water is added and throughly removes makeup while leaving skin feeling comfortable and soft!

What are your products made from this super ingredient?!
