- Moisturizer : Honey is a natural humectant, which means it has the ability to attract and retain water in the tissues, providing optimal hydration. Do not hesitate to leave your honey masks in the shower or in the bath, the honey will capture the ambient humidity to soak your skin in water.
Manuka honey, the star of honeys!
The Holy Grail of honeys is manuka honey, with antibacterial and healing powers tenfold. Originally from New Zealand or Australia, manuka is a cousin of the tea tree , essential for acne-prone skin . It is found in the Antipodes Skincare organic cosmetics and in particular the iconic Aura mask with manuka honey, but also in the Mask & Wash Max and me, an exceptional soothing and repairing treatment, hero of problem skin.
How to integrate honey into my beauty routine?
There are many ways to integrate honey into your beauty routine, discover our favorites!
As a cleanser :
Honey cleanses the skin while maintaining hydration.
Did you know ? You can use raw honey to cleanse your face, by massaging a hazelnut on damp skin after removing make-up.
At MonCornerB we are fans of honey cleansers from the brand Therapi, as pretty and sensory as gentle on the skin . In a lemon myrtle version for oily skin, orange blossom for normal to combination skin or otto rose for dry and mature skin, everyone will find what they are looking for!
As a mask :
The honey mask does not dry on the skin unlike clay masks, and can therefore be left on for as long as desired.
Tip: to spread your honey mask more easily, apply it on slightly damp skin .
You can of course make yourself a homemade mask with good honey, if not for more sensoriality opt for a “ready-made” honey mask like Leahlani's Meli Glow, with a tropical smoothie scent, or their cult honey and Spirulina: Mermaid.
As a cream :
Organic honey moisturizers will be ideal for dehydrated skin but also acne or scarred skin. Combination to oily skin prone to imperfections will love the light cream Aura with manuka honey Antipodes or Water Gel Baptise, while dry skin will offer a cocooning ritual with cream honey and rose Therapi.
