10 Reasons You Should Be Using Raw Honey (And Where To Buy It!)

Raw honey (not commercial honey that is sold in most stores) is full of nutrients and enzymes that are great for your body. If you can, buy local honey because it contains local pollen that can help you build up an allergy resistance to it. Do some research and buy local; some places even sell through Amazon. If not, try Nature Nate’s on Amazon—they’re a good deal and you can even subscribe!

Another great thing about honey is that it never goes bad! So you can buy as much as you want and you don’t have to worry about wasting your money on something that will expire! Honey isn’t just good for your body and health, but it’s also good for your wallet!

When you do finally get your honey, make a natural hair remover by mixing 1 cup of sugar, 1/3 cup honey, and the juice from one lemon. Boil this together and apply the mixture like you would a wax strip to remove hair!

To treat acne and other similar skin blemishes, mix equal parts honey and cinnamon. Once you’ve combined them, scrub the mixture onto your face, let it sit for a bit, and then rinse it off! Repeat as necessary.

Do you have frizzy hair and absolutely hate having to deal with it? Here’s a pretty simple solution. Mix together 1 teaspoon of honey and 4 cups of water. Apply it to wet and clean hair, let it dry, and then rinse. This should help get rid of frizz and calm your hair down.

Make a great scrub for your skin and lips by combining equal parts honey, olive oil, and sugar! Just rub the mixture onto rough or dry parts of your skin and rinse. It’s such a great and natural recipe!
