Being a fulltime, devoted mommy to two fast-growing kiddies, I always try my best to find time and blog, however, I need to prioritize things efficiently, thus, the delay :) Anyway, there's a saying that goes, 'It is never too late for anything'..hehe.

Holistic Honey To Moisturize Skin

Being on the 6th month of my pregnancy, dry skin seems to be inevitable these days. To keep my skin moisturized and well-toned, suffice to say, natural remedies are such a big help.
This morning I woke up feeling a little dry skin on my face so I decided to grab the honey in our fridge.
More recent discoveries show that honey is skin-friendly both when eaten and when applied directly to the skin.

Honey is high in potassium, it is excellent for fighting bacteria and skin impurities. Wow!
It is recommended that we use the purest, highest quality honey to begin with this moisturizing treatment. Given the natural regenerative properties, the higher the quality of the honey, the better the guarantee of great results.

Honey

Thanks to my friend Tin for giving me this honey :)

To begin with, wash your face with your favorite mild facial skin cleanser. Gently rub it into your damp skin in a circular motion. Rinse thoroughly with water and pat your face dry with a clean towel.


Apply some honey onto your face, using circular motions. Begin at your hairline, around your ears, and all the way down under your chin. Leave it on for five to 10 minutes to nourish and moisturize your skin.

my  'just-got-out-of-bed-face'  full of honey ☺

Rinse off the honey from your face with lukewarm water, and then gently pat your skin dry. You will immediately feel a refreshing, new softness in the texture of your skin.

As for me, I instantly apply my favorite sunblock cream during the day to protect my skin from the sun's harmful rays.


The vitamins, mineral and amino acids found in honey make it a wonderful beauty aid. It helps our skin glow more radiantly, helps reduce wrinkles, thus making us look younger. Oh, I'm falling for the naturals already :) hehehee..

There are myriads of uses of honey. Apart from its moisturizing and cleansing benefits, honey contains the enzyme glucose oxidase.  World's Healthiest Foods explains that when glucose oxidase combines with water it produces hydrogen peroxide, giving honey antibacterial and antimicrobial qualities.
Honey contains antioxidants that fight bacteria and free radicals, which contribute to cell damage.
It contains beneficial nutrients such as B vitamins, magnesium, potassium, calcium, sodium chlorine, sulfur, iron and phosphate (read source from: Bees-Online). This is important when applied directly to the skin and as part of a healthy diet.

So what are your natural remedy tips for dry skin?  Let me hear from you. I'm certain some have tried this but for those who have not, you, too, can try this simple but effective skincare regimen at home. It works for me, I am sure it will work for you.
Till my next post then!
Love, Ellen

I took my photo wearing kissmark right before I had my afternoon snacks, and even as I have finished eating doughnuts and wiped a tissue on my lips, the hint of its shade still stayed there, leaving it look a lot more naturally pinkish. I also love the fact that this lipstick has Vitamin E, which will nourish my dry lips these days because of my pregnancy.. I am beginning to love Colour Collection lipsticks and excited to try more of their products. ☺

 

 

Have you tried any of Colour Collection lippies yet? I highly recommend their collection of lipsticks. I will post more reviews in the next few days :)

Cutiefy

My "cutiefy" look today ☺

 This was the first time  featured and wore my peep toe heels in fuschia, silver, beige and royal blue color combination. I am so happy because the color goes well with the floral prints in my skirt and corset top. .

Love my sunnies from Atmosphere by Primark

The sun is bright and up and this look I shall say is one of my very 'favorite' because this is so me. I love chic images and for the first time, I wore my favorite corset lingerie from Secret Possession, this was sent to me by my mother-in-law, who's based in Germany.
I would really consider corsets as one of my favorite outfits for this season in time.
Let me know what you think, guys! xx
