Recently I've noticed just how many products I own, and use regularly, that contain honey! Not just makeup, but haircare, skincare and fragrance! So why this obsession with honey? Well I have found that using honey enriched products on my hair and skin has definitely made my hair and skin softer. Honey is an excellent natural moisturiser as it helps to attract water, this allows your hair/skin to retain water for longer, giving you that lovely moisturised feeling.
Not only is it great for keeping your skin and hair lovely and hydrated, but it is also so naturally sweet it is excellent for perfumes. I usually find sweet fragrances can be very artificial smelling, way too sweet and liable to give me a cracking headache! But the Marc Jacobs Honey fragrance gives me that sweet and youthful smell without being overpoweringly sweet.
The sweetness of honey is also great if your on a diet. I started trying to eat clean and healthy just over a year ago and have seen the benefits dramatically. Honey has been my savior, as I have a very sweet tooth, I use it on porridge, on toast, in tea/coffee, on cornflakes, in yogurt, I could go on. It is a super healthy way to get sweetness in to your diet without over loading your body with bad sugars.
So thank you bees for making this wonderful amber sticky substance, It is wonderous stuff with many magical properties. I don't know what I would do without it.☕
I'm terrified of bees but they make the tastiest stuff evah! I don't think I have loads of products with honey in it, but I did try LUSH's It's Raining Men shower gel that smelled and had honey in it. It was fantastic stuff!!
