Pros:

kills bacterias that causes acne. kills bacterias in skin so wounds heals faster if there are any wounds. honey is acidic, so it sucks up oil from underneath and dries up acne faster without irritations. tightens skin and won't dry out skin.

Cons:

drippy but who cares?

cleopetra used to bathe in honey in her times. drinking honey with water also hydrates your body to prevent dehydration, which will prevent acne due to imbalance of oil and h20 in your skin. nurses used to use honey to heal soilders' wounds. oh, how sweet & romantic.

loveeee
I love honey masks.So far I've not had breakouts caused by honey but be sure to use raw honey and only apply a thin layer! Try not to be in a heaty place as it melts easily and can cause a mess.

AMAZING
OMG..I can't say enough good things about honey! I generally have good skin and Its truely a miracle. I add it to yogurt/mayo/egg as a natural hair mask for my naturally dry hair. It has transformed my hair completely. My hair has gone from from very dry to dry-normal with its regular use. I also use it as my face mask for couple of min(I have oily skin so cant leave it longer) and it adds a glow to my face and my face was so calm and smooth!

Love it.. it has to be Raw honey to work!!
So far raw honey mask its what i have used the longest. I saw results within the first day and thats whats i like when i use a product. I leave it for about 10min at night and sometimes in the morning. I usually apply it alone but i have also tried it with lemon and cinammon. Both work well... i find it works better when i apply a little bit of water afterwards and massage it. Always dry my face with a paper towel to makesure its clean. during my research i saw that raw honey was the one to use and pure.

Pros:

Reduces redness
Smooths skin
Smells good
Moisturizes

Cons:

Sticky
Can be difficult to apply

I have suffered from acne for a few years and only recently has it gotten better. I started applying raw honey on my face 20 minutes a day and have noticed some change. I wash my face at night with Cetaphil, apply the honey for 20 minutes, wash it off with warm water, apply moisturizer, and spot treat with tea tree oil. My skin isn't as red and some marks have faded. Nothing too drastic, but it will help with time.

Pros:

-Actually works
-High availability
-Inexpensive
-Can get free travel-size pouches at fast food restaurants!
-humectant; leaves skin feeling dewy and moist, but not greasy.

Cons:

-That's how you get ants

I have spent thousands of dollars over the years on OTC acne treatments, caved and spent hundreds on prescription treatments with a dermatologist, and my sensitive skin just kept getting worse. I tried honey right before I was supposed to start Accutane, and thank GOD. I either wash with it like a cleanser or leave it on as a masque and my skin, while not perfect, has gone from embarrassingly angry to a few hormonal breakouts a month. I love honey and highly recommend it to everyone. The prescription things that did not work before I tried honey: -benzoyl peroxide (skin peeled off but still broke out) -salicylic acid (same as above, only less severe) -retin-a -monodox -orthotricyclin -sulfacetamide -others i cannot remember the otc things that did not work: -all of them, including proactiv and neutrogena and even things like miracle whip masque

Pros:

Raw honey is the greatest thing to have happened. It helps with acne, redness, wrinkles, you name it!

Cons:

None!

I have tried every face wash in the drug store, at the dermatologist, you name it. I even tried tea tree oil, that turned how horrible for me. I was fed up! Then I came across all these articles about how all these women used raw honey and never looked back. So I went to my grocery store and bought RAW honey. It's in a jar and it's not clear or runny. For the first 2 weeks, you will purge. In my experience, I had those little white heads, so it wasn't that annoying. By the third week, I was smooth, clear, and my acne scars had reduced quite a lot. My normally freakish oil face had reduced as well. I still get a bit of shine, but not nearly as bad. I appreciate that. This is what I use/do. Every morning and night I first use Mill Creek's Wild Oats Scrub (all natural ingredients- like honey, aloe, oatmeal, almond, and apricot) After the scrub, I wash with raw honey, just like you would do with any other cleanser. At least twice a week, I use Freeman's Cucumber Peel. This really brightens my skin tone. I never had a bad reaction from it. At least once a week, I will steam my face for 5-10 mins, then use pore strips. My pores aren't as clogged as before, I just can't help using them. It's a guilty pleasure... After I wash and/or use my peels. I will moisturize with Fruit of the Earth 100% aloe vera gel. The clear kind, I don't use the one died blue, I don't trust it. Some people may not have to use a moisturizer after the honey, but I do because aloe serves as an extra healing agent and of course it fades scars. If you've tried everything else and nothing works, please give this a try!

Pros:

-makes skin soft
-smells good
-prevents breakouts
-evens skin tone

Cons:

-doesn't clear current breakout

the honey mask is great!! it totally keeps new breakouts from coming and it makes skin soft and smooth and it evens the skin tone. My complexion looked great after using this. Make sure its organic, raw honey though. The least processed the better. The only con is it doesn't clear current breakouts, it only prevents new pimples from coming.

Pros:

- Get's rid of acne fast!
- Smells great!
- Tastes great!
- Makes skin calm, glowing and gets rid of the redness!

Cons:

- Sticky
- Can't go out with it on
- Hair can get stuck in it

I have never written a review before but I had to just tell all acne sufferers that this treatment is great!! I have been using the honey mask for a week or so and my acne has significantly cleared up. I wear it round the house in the evening with tissues over the top (so as not to drip honey or get it everywhere) and its like a surprise when I take of the tissues off after a few hours because my acne already has gone down and the redness lessened. I use benzac at night, take a vibra tab (doxycycline) during the day and use a honey mask in the evening. I think I will be clear in the next few weeks!!!!

Pros:

Your skin feels wonderful and you see results immediately. Fun . refreshing

Cons:

Messy

I mix honey with ginger and garlic its feels intesting but works well. Also if you put cinnamon in it it slps the smell from the garlic. I love home remedy's. My suggestion to you is find out some different things that are good for your skin like green tea,lemon,and things listed above then start mixing. Everything will have good results on your skin and mak it feel good. I do this all the time now. My skin is looking better and refreshed. :} Have fun I know I am.
