Skin Care : Honey & Cinnamon Acne Treatment

Hello everyone .

Honey : 
Honey is a natural antibacterial agent made up of sugar and water ,Honey also has a low PH , Since one of acne's causes is an overgrowth of bacteria, many home remedies include honey to tamp that growth back down to normal levels .

Tip : U can use the Natural Honey, the one made up by Bees .

Cinnamon :

Like honey, cinnamon has anti-microbial properties and can halt the growth of bacteria.
The George Meteljan Foundation's healthy foods Web site notes that 2 tsp. of cinnamon contains almost 40 percent of the daily recommended value of manganese, along with smaller amounts of fiber, iron and calcium. Cinnamon's beneficial properties come from three essential oils found in cinnamon bark, giving the spice anti-clotting and anti-inflammatory properties.

How to Make the Mask :

To make your own cinnamon and honey acne treatment

 -Get 1 tbsp of honey

-Get 1/4 tbsp of ground cinnamon 

-Mix the two together in a small container. You can make extra and save it in the fridge for later use

The result should look something kind of gross like the picture below. Depending on what type of honey and cinnamon you use, it might look darker than this, almost like chocolate syrup .

Applying The Mask :

Once your mixture is ready, apply it on your clean skin with your Clean fingers. It will be sticky and not very pleasant at first, but just try to bear with it.  keep the mask on for 30 minutes OR more than that if YOU can manage it

* If you have acne, acne scars, or dry skin or all three , then you might want to try this!

WARNING :  

If you have never used honey or cinnamon on your skin before, you should do a patch test to make sure you don't get a reaction to either of the ingredients. after a patch test, you might still want to try the mask with honey alone, and if that is okay then you can try the mask with both honey and cinnamon .

GOOD LUCK .... ^_^
