Saviour!
Like many people I have used so many things to get rid of my acne. I don't have severe acne, but I definitely have noticeable break outs around the time of my period and it has been very frustrating! I've tried so many chemicals and products that dry out my skin and finally I tried to find an all natural remedy and I found this Honey Cinnamon Nutmeg Mask. All of the things I already had in my kitchen. At first I was a bit skeptical since it's just been drilled into my head that "If it stings it works" because this mask is really gentle on your skin, I tend to forget it's even on my face. Until you know, it drips or I accidentally touch/taste it (tastes good btw). I've been using this for over a year now, and I really don't know what I would do without it. I use baking soda to exfoliate my skin when I can feel my face starting to break out and put on this mask right after I rinse. I often walk around my house with this stuff on my face, I feel like the longer I have it on, the more it works. It really calms the acne swelling down and works miracles. It can get sticky and messy but just be careful!

Cheap and Effective
I've been using this for about a week now, and let me just say this is FANTASTIC. Now i don't consider myself to have major acne, but I have very dry skin which breaks out occasionally. Lately, Iv'e been breaking out all over my forehead and nose. Using this method has dramatically improved my skin is already starting to clear up. one tip is ADD CINNAMON! It makes it useful in acne treatment. These are its antibacterial, anti-inflammatory and antioxidant effects.

Honey and Baking Soda=Great Results!

Pros:

Clearer, brighter skin
Inexpensive
Multiple uses:facewash, spot treatment or a mask

Cons:

a little messy, especially if you sleep with it on

I have had acne since I was a teenager, now in my twenties and it's still a huge problem for me :( I started washing my face every night with honey and baking soda, LIGHTLY scrubbing my face with my fingertips in a circular motion, then I let my face air dry and apply an apple cider toner (just diluted apple cider, 1/2 water 1/2 apple cider). It has actually worked wonders, WAY more effective than all the drugstore facewashes I've tried over the years ...I still have a few breakouts here and there but my skin is MUCH clearer, its brighter and just looks healthier. Plus, so much cheaper! I also use honey as an overnight spot treatment, dabbing it on problem areas...a little bit messy but trust me, its worth it! Also, make sure to use only pure unpasteurized honey....the other stuff has a bunch of additives that could be comedogenic and clog your pores

Pros:

-smells AMAZING (if you enjoy the smell of honey).
-reduces redness significantly
-shrinks size of acne
-gives a slight glow to your complexion

Cons:

-may not work immediately

After roughly 6 years of persistent acne, redness, countless prescriptions from my dermatologist, and lost hope, I've ventured into more holistic solutions. I started by ordering a vegetable oil based soap from online with all natural ingredients. This replaced my normal face wash. The honey mask was meant to replace all the extra prescriptions I formally used. I like to apply the mask right after a shower, when my pores are open. I'll leave it on for 2-3 hours and then gently wash it off. After only a few weeks, my acne is significantly reduced and the overall quality of skin is better. Sometimes, I'll dab on a little honey as a spot treatment. I also recommend an avocado mask for people with extremely dry and damaged skin like mine. It leaves your skin even softer than honey alone. Honey Mask: - 1 tbsp. RAW honey (the white kind, it is not processed and has the most antioxidants) - 1 tsp. cinnamon Avocado mask: - Half of a small avocado - 1 tsp. olive oil - 1 tbsp. honey (For very dry skin: put a little vitamin E oil on afterwards, and your skin will be SOOO soft.)

Pros:

really does help with reducing pimples!!

Cons:

takes time

When I first used it, it didnt help at all, but I continued using this mask a few times and it worked! I put this on my face once or twice a week, leave it on with a bit of salt on my nose and forehead and step in the shower. The heat of the steam will help melt the salt into my skin to exfoliate and get rid of excess sebum. And the honey almost melts into my face giving me a glowy complexion. This method is super effective, I recommend!!

Pros:

-small pimples cleared away
-pimple inflammation went down
-skin looks more even toned
-softer look
-tastes yummy and is natural!

Cons:

-sticky I guess, but whatever it's a mask
-manuka honey was kinda pricey

I mixed manuka honey, which is a raw and organic honey found in health stores, and freshly squeezed lemon juice. The mixture was kinda liquidy and dripped down my face before it dried. I left the mask on for 45 minutes and then rinsed it off with warm water. I noticed my skin looks much calmer and the redness from a lot of my old acne scars went down. Also my skin looks softer. In darker lighting it looks like I have nice skin since I can't see the scars as much and less inflammation. I highly recommend this. I've been suffering from acne for 4 years now and I've tried so many different things. From antibiotics to expensive creams to natural remedies to praying. I even tried the honey and egg white masks before, but I didn't use manuka raw honey. It worked okay, but not as well as the manuka honey. I see a much bigger difference with it. Right now I am also doing Dan's Regimen and on birth control. Oh yeah and I stopped eating glutten (not an easy task but I noticed my face is clearer and I get pimples much less often. And if I do they're small and go away faster). My skin was clearing up but because of hormones I broke out a little so I used the honey mask. I'm going to start using it every other day. I'm telling you it's really nice and definitely worth a try. Good luck everyone!!

Pros:

AMAZING. Makes your skin less oily, great for summer weather. You can do it once a day. Shrinks the size of break outs. Smells amazing.

Cons:

none

I used three tablespoons of honey to one tablespoon of cinnamon, mixed well. I wash my face with warm to hot water then apply the mixture after my face has dried. Leave it on for about 30 mins of whenever it starts to drip. Wash with warm to hot water to open those pores. Then I cleanse with pourpose gentle cleanser still with warm to hot water then rise with cold water to close your porse.I did this for about a month and saw big improvement with scares and I had a lot less breakouts. You can also use it as a spot treatment. Istopped for a about a week and a half and my face began to break out again. I recently started it up again and I am loving it. I used it after showering from a work out or before I go to bed. ITS AMAZING YOU HAVE TO TRY IT, PLEASE, FOR ONE MONTH, just stick to it.

Pros:

This is my second time using it so i dont really know if it will work. But it defiantly helps reduce redness. Before i tried this i used retinol, It burned my face and turned it red. The honey totally moisturizes it.

Cons:

Messy, Drips all over your shirt so wear a bad shirt, Gets all in my hair and it got all over my computer while im typing this.
STICKY.

I take some honey out of a honey container (just the honey that is in a bear container) I put it in a dish and put it in the microwave for 15 seconds to make it a warm liquid and put it on my face and keep it on as long as i can have it on. It has really reduced redness by atleast 90% It is amazing as far as moisturizer works. Better than any facial lotions.

Pros:

Softens skin, temporarily plumps skin to give the appearance of smoothed lines/scars/wrinkles, make skin glow!

Cons:

******If used too often, can cause CYSTS and irritation!!!!!********

Use this once every 2 weeks at most for sensitve skin types! ~ I started out using this twice a week and it worked great for awhile, then I noticed it started to cause cysts and painful irritation after I started using it more! I have since stopped using this & no more cysts at all! I really love how soft it made me feel, but since I'm so sensitive, I'd rather not even bother with this one at all any longer..
