See this content in the original post

What’s not to love about honey? It tastes amazing, is incredibly good for your health, not to mention that it has multiple uses as a beauty ingredient! We’re huge fans of Beekeeper’s Naturals—a line of natural wellness products that utilizes the superfoods of the hive (raw honey, royal jelly, propolis, and bee pollen) to scientifically formulate potent wellness products.

Recently, we chatted with the Beekeeper's team, who shared alternate ways to use of some their bestselling products, including a few different types of honey. Read on to discover the surprising beauty hacks, which will get skin glowing and help you to reach a new state of relaxation:

Wash your face with Buckwheat Honey.

Buckwheat honey may not sound exotic, but it’s actually pretty amazing. We like to call it “North America’s Manuka.” The germ-fighting powers of this darkly-colored honey are incredibly impressive. Plus, it has one of the highest antioxidant contents of any honey in the world! Because of this, buckwheat honey is gentle yet deeply rejuvenating on the skin, making it an ideal cleanser for people of all skin types. It’s easy to wash off, deeply hydrating, and a really satisfying way of starting and ending the day. 

Use B. Powered Superfood Honey as a weekly face mask.

This is our absolute favorite weekly beauty ritual! B.Powered Superfood Honey is a blend of all the hive superfoods (raw honey, bee pollen, propolis, and royal jelly). Naturally, it’s super rich in enzymes and valuable nutrients that nourish the skin. It’s really an all-around skin superstar. It possesses natural germ-fighting properties, which can help with acne and scarring. It can fortify the skin and diminish the signs of premature aging (like pesky wrinkles!), thanks to royal jelly and an impressive antioxidant content.

B.Powered also acts as a natural humectant, so it helps the skin retain its moisture and natural glow! To enjoy this luscious weekly face mask, all you have to do is blend a spoonful of B.Powered with a bit of water, then apply it to your freshly cleansed skin. Rinse off after 15-20 minutes and unleash your inner glow!     

Apply Propolis Spray as a lip balm.

Propolis is the hive defender, preventing germs and other invaders from harming the hive. But propolis is also an amazing antioxidant and anti-inflammatory agent. It’s actually being researched for its ability to thwart UV-induced skin damage and the effects of oxidative stress! You can spray propolis extract in your mouth for immunity, on your blemishes or scrapes to support healing, or even use it as a lip balm to help heal chapped lips. It’s a really great all-around health and beauty product.    

Relax with B.Chill Hemp Honey.

B.Chill Hemp Honey is a pretty unique, highly bio-available blend of raw honey and high-potency hemp oil. Thanks to the power of these two relaxation superstars, B.Chill is great for taking the edge off a stressful day and encouraging better, deeper sleep. And it’s not just hemp doing all the heavy lifting—raw honey majorly delivers when it’s time to hit the pillow. It naturally supports uptake of tryptophan in your brain, which boosts production of serotonin and melatonin, helping you relax and sleep better. We love a spoonful in a mug of herbal tea when it’s time to unwind and chill out.
