Pros:Works great to clear skin problems, especially when mixed with lemon juice. It was the only product that doesn't dry my skin, and it gives my skin a nice healthy glow! It is so cheap - nothing else has worked for me except for this treatment.
Cons:Its sticky..... a small price to pay for its benefits.
Bottom Line:I recently started using honey as an acne treatment and it has worked wonders on my skin. I did some research and I learned that honey is not only an antibacterial agent, but also contains antioxidants that protect the skin from from damage-causing free radicals which age the skin. I find it works best when mixed with a bit of lemon juice - the citrus acid in lemon juice exfoliates dead skin and dirt and the vitamin C helps repair damage caused by free radicals which is a bonus if you tan lots too. In my research I also found out that honey has been used medicinally by the Greeks & Egyptians for 1000s of years to treat wounds, skin ulcers, and burns. It is a great aid in cell regeneration and the formation of collagen. I have spent so much money on expensive cleansers which dry my skin and don't work, I guess its time I stop underestimating the power of nature.

Pros:It's a miracle!!
Cons:Sticky
Bottom Line:I had pretty moderate acne covering my cheeks and chin. I discovered acne and honey exactly two weeks ago and today I only have one or two small pimples left on my entire face. I look like I did five years ago, before acne overtook my face!! I have discovered you HAVE to use raw, organic honey. THe stuff in the honey bear at the supermarket does not work. I got a large jar at my local farmer's market of raw, organic honey with the comb in the jar for around 8 dollars. I mix a few teaspoons of honey with a few teaspoons of regular cinnamon powder from the supermarket and massage it onto my face and leave for as long as possible, usually a few hours. This stuff is a miracle! It has done what Proactive, antibiotics and hundreds of dollars worth of over the counter acne medicine could not do!

Pros:made skin soft
Cons:none yet
Bottom Line:I tried it for the first time last night. I washed my face with 7% Benzoyl Peroxide Proactiv cleanser. I then mixed honey and a heavy squirt of lemon and applied. I left it on while I was in the bath tub and rinsed it off with cool water. I must say it did make my skin feel soft. I also want to try putting honey or aloe vera gel.

Pros:It's wonderful for relaxing skin and allowing it to heal. If you have sensitive skin I would not suggest using it more then twice a week for 10 mins. If you have tough skin its best to do it every other day.
Cons:Its a mess
Bottom Line:It works moderatly and helps rejuvinate skin. Which is definatly very important. Also FOR YOUR INFORMATION: the active ingredient in the honey is actually a form of hydrogen peroxide. I found rubbing this on the face is EVEN MORE effective, but KEEP IT AWAY FROM YOUR EYE BROWS....it will dye them blond. Also use to remove acne scars....works in about one week, and I had horrible acne scars.
Recommended:Yes
Usage:Morgan has used this item for about a week.

Bottom Line:I LOVE honey! It works like a charm to help clear up redness and whiteheads. I wouldn't say that it prevents break-outs, but yes, for me it treats acne. It also gets my skin smooth.

Pros:Cheap, worked relatively quickly, a bottle lasts a while.
Cons:No matter where or when I've used it, it actually tends to dry my skin a little.
Bottom Line:I usually use it in the shower while my pores are open, and leave it on for the length of time that I'm in there. It worked great at clearing my face of red bumps, though, it did dry me a little. But I just use an oil-free lotion and all is well. I have friends that have used it on their back and shoulders and said it worked just as well on body acne.
Recommended:Yes
Usage:Chelle has used this item for a few months.

Pros:antibacterial and amazing
Cons:sticky
Bottom Line:I first used honey with oat and it did cleansen my skin but it didn't decrease the acne eruption but i added another ingredient that did wonders lemon juice it made the mask perfect it reduced the eruptions markedly and even the deep existing acne appeared on the surface to drain as if it was keratolytic but without the irritation of the keratolytic acne medicinal products u should use it everyday to make a marked difference
also the lemon make the mask get hold together and not keep falling off ur face like honey alone

Pros:It leaves ur face feeling clean and fresh; plus it smells declicious!
Cons:sticks and it varies by skin type how long it should be applied
Bottom Line:Just apply the honey all over ur face(back and chest if needed) and let it sit for 10-15 min and rinse off with warm water then cold to close your pores back up. Its works better on a clean face so apply after you take a shower.
Also dont over use it. It's probably best to use once or twice a week.
