Honey may taste delicious, but it’s also a bona fide superstar beauty ingredient. Why? It boasts antibacterial and antifungal properties,\u00a0and<\/em> it\u2019s a\u00a0humectant — which means when it’s applied, it locks in moisture (hello, hydration!).<\/p>\n

Here’s why you should incorporate this ingredient into your beauty routine ASAP.<\/p>\n

Lip service<\/strong>
\nGiven that honey is a natural moisturizer, it\u2019s guaranteed to heal dry, chapped lips. Put TONYMOLY Kiss Kiss Lovely Lip Patch<\/a>\u00a0on your lips to eliminate dry flakes, boost hydration, and leave lips feeling buttery smooth.<\/p>\n

Zit zapper<\/strong>
\nThis is where honey’s anti-inflammatory and antibacterial properties come into play. When honey is applied to a blemish, it eliminates bacteria while reducing swelling and redness. To prevent breakouts from getting worse, we recommend using\u00a0Farmacy\u00a0Beauty Honey Savior All-in-One Skin Repair Salve<\/a> because the antioxidant-rich formula calms inflamed skin.<\/p>\n

Hair repair<\/strong>
\nHoney’s moisturizing benefits extend to lackluster locks when used as a weekly scalp treatment.\u00a0Carol’s Daughter Mimosa Hair Honey Clarifying Scalp Treatment<\/a> uses honey, peppermint oil,\u00a0and tree bark to eliminate product buildup and tame frizz and flyaways.<\/p>\n

Brighten up<\/strong>
\nFortified with gentle bleaching properties, honey can reduce discoloration and hyperpigmentation like no other.\u00a0Fresh Cr\u00e8me Ancienne Ultimate Nourishing Honey Mask<\/a> is a super creamy formula packed with honey and echinacea extract, which mimics the results of a professional facial, leaving your skin supple and glowing.<\/p>\n

Body buffer<\/strong>
\nCracked hands and soles can be a thing of the past. Use\u00a0Kiehl’s Creme de Corps Soy Milk & Honey Body Polish<\/a>\u00a0to achieve silky smooth skin — the sweet-smelling formula uses honey and jojoba oil to restore the skin’s natural lipid barrier and perfectly primes the skin to lock in moisture post-shower.<\/p>\n
