Herbal Infused Honey Mask Recipe for a Natural Glow

Let’s glow! We’re all aware that the true glow comes from within, but all little exterior polish never hurts, right?

This herbal honey face mask is infused with the following herbs:

Sage: stimulates blood, closes pores, and restores elasticity. Great for wrinkled, saggy complexions.

Lemon balm: provides cleansing of pores, and soothing and astringent effects to help tone and balance the skin.

Lavender: stimulates the growth of new cells, increases blood circulation, and balances oil production.

Yarrow: strengthens the skin tone for aging skin, clears and soothes problem oily and congested skin, and soothes inflammed skin.

Honey: Possesses antimicrobial and antioxidants, aiding in skin tissue repair and soothing inflammed skin conditions.

Ingredients: I used about a tbsp of each dried herb and 1 cup of warmed honey

How to do it: Combine the ingredients; this recipe can be tailored to meet your skincare goals. Mix well. Seal jar and let set for 2 weeks. During those two weeks, I like to make a little hot water bath in an old pot and place my jar in it to rewarm the honey mask. Once the jar is warm on the outside, stir to keep the herbs macerating into the honey. I do this a handful of times during the 2 weeks.

To use: When ready to use, rewarm, stir, and apply.

To use: On a clean, semi-damp face, apply honey mask. Leave on for 10-15 minutes. Eating a little bit is okay!

This recipe isn’t recommended for sensitive skin. Do a patch test first if you aren’t familiar with the topical effects of these herbs.
