Honey Face

How is the honey obtained?

Honey is obtained in several stages: first the bees will collect the nectar from the flowers, then bring it back to the hive, which will then be transported from bee to bee. As the exchanges progress, the nectar obtained will become more and more concentrated. The water evaporates, giving way to the formation of glucose and fructose necessary for the manufacture of honey.

Once the honey is extracted, it is filtered to remove all impurities. Honey contains 17 to 20% water, 76 to 80% glucose and fructose, pollen, wax and mineral salts. Its composition and color depend on the type of flower that provides the nectar.

Honey Skin Care

The benefits of honey on the skin

Traditionally used for thousands of years for its antiseptic, toning and healing properties, honey applied directly to the face or incorporated into cosmetic treatments has many benefits for the skin:

Cleanses and purifies combination and blemished skin

Recognized antiseptic, honey makes it possible to fight effectively against the imperfections thanks to its antibacterial properties. Integrated in cleansing cosmetic care, it has a double action: purifying, but also moisturizing, ideal to take care of mixed to oily skins and to contribute to limit the appearance of imperfections.

Gently eliminates dead cells and restores radiance

Some types of honey crystallize over time, forming tiny little granules that will act as a gentle exfoliator. Applied to the skin in light circular massages, the granules will "melt" on your skin, removing dead cells in their path. Cleared of impurities, your skin becomes smoother and more radiant.

Preserves the skin's hydrolipidic film

Rich in sugars and vitamin B, honey hydrates the upper layers of the epidermis: it has the capacity to retain water molecules and prevent their evaporation.

We particularly appreciate its moisturizing, soothing and regenerating power, for an ultra-complete care that gives our skin everything it needs to glow!

Honey Face Mask

Regenerates dry skin and promotes healing

The regenerating, anti-inflammatory and healing benefits of honey make it a natural ally much sought after by dry skin. Applied as a mask to the skin in combination with other ingredients for complete care, honey can help soothe the skin in case of itching, discomfort or skin problems such as eczema or psoriasis.

It also promotes the healing of acne pimples

Slows down the appearance of signs of skin aging

Probiotics, antioxidants, nutrients and enzymes in honey work together to help nourish and plump the skin.

Its concentration in antioxidants will delight mature skin by limiting the appearance and development of free radicals responsible for skin aging.

While it is possible to apply pure honey directly to the skin, its association with other botanical active ingredients reinforces its benefits and provides complementary properties.
