Cons:
Sticky, can drip if you apply too much
Within a couple of days I noticed a huge difference, no new breakouts, cleared up old ones and made my face less red.

Mask Monday!
I use a teaspoon of natural (raw) honey as a mask every monday before i take a shower with a teaspoon of lemon juice, and half a teaspoon each of cinnamon and nutmeg, works really well!! It softens up the skin, helps fight breakouts and lightens up scars and pigmentation. Love it!!!

I love this
my favourite mask to do includes honey, cinnamon and lemon juice (I just sort of eyeball the amount of each ingredient to make a paste). I don't have horrible acne but I always had quite a few pimples somewhere on my face, mostly around my cheeks and some on my forehead. I also had a lot of scarring on my cheeks. I did this mask every 2 to 3 days, focussing on the areas I broke out and avoiding my eye area. I found it easier to wash off in the shower because the honey is sticky and the cinnamon sometimes gets stuck in my eyebrows hahaha....anyways after doing this for about a month I noticed a huge difference and my face is now almost completely clear. it's a huge confidence booster and I'm slowly starting to feel better about myself :)

Pros:
12 dollars sounds expensive but it was a 22 oz jar of raw honey :)
calms redness/swelling of large zits and even cysts
natural and gentle
Cons:
None really. A little sticky? It's not a miracle cure which is why I only gave it 4/5, but for me it heals faster and gentler than BP.
I started doing the water-only regimen but I will occasionally spot treat with raw honey. For some reason, it seemed that when I was using BP and stuff, spot treating with honey would never really do much so I gave up. I got an initial breakout from the water-only regimen (I quit BP, differin, cleansers and moisturizers cold-turkey so it's not surprise, really) and I wanted something to spot treat/heal with that could be washed off with only water. I returned to the raw honey and it has been working well. I had a chin cyst/nodule last night so I put some on it and it's no longer lumpy. My acne is now light.

Use it if you wanna get rid of scars.

Pros:
Very Cheap, Leaves skin feeling clean, tight, and smooth. The honey leaves to skin feeling soft and supple.
Cons:
I don't know if it really did much for me, maybe took away a bit of redness.
I like to use this about once a week, I have dry, sensitive, ance prone skin. This mask doesn't make me break out.

Pros:
antibacterial and amazing
Cons:
sticky
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

Was using this before getting on accutane. Felt lovely on my skin and made it feel so soft! Didn't really do anything else but felt like a treat!

Good
I use honey as a face mask once a week. I have mild acne/combination of oily and dry skin.
First I wash my face then I apply 100% raw organic honey on my face for 10-20 minuetes and after that, I wash my face with lukewarm water. It can get a bit messy, especially if you want to itch your face and will start to drip off your face. Use raw organic honey than processed honey. Most of the beneficial properties are removed onced the honey is processed and the added ingredients may be irritable to your skin. Honey is not comedogenic which means it will not clog your pores. Honey is moisturizing, anti-bacterial, anti-flammatory and filled with antioxidants and enzymes. The ph of honey is 3-6 so it's alright for your skin. My results: soft radiant skin, minimized some acne but didnt really get rid of all my acne.

Worth the try !
i find honey masks great , you can just use pure honey out of a jar , or go out and buy a mask for £1 . I find it takes the redness down and it also takes away any germs.Its worth the try it helped improve mine , this also makes your skin soft i just leave the honey on my face whilst i am watching TV or revising (30mins-1hour). However this don't completely cure you acne.

Pros:
Easy and cheap- I applied straight organic honey nothing added straight out of the container and let it sit on for 20 minutes before washing off with soap.
