Photo Credit: Flооd 
Ingredients
  • Honey




Method 
  1. 2-3 minutes before taking a shower, gently massage the honey onto your skin.
  2. Remember to pay attention where the skin is driest e.g knees, elbows, feet
  3. Rinse off in the shower



Why it works:

Honey can be used as a moisturizer because it is a humectant. A humectant is a substance that retains and provides moisture for the skin. It also has antimicrobial properties.
