Honey? Really? This really works? Like....straight outta the jar? I'm having a hard time wrapping my head around this one. I'm willing to try anything though. I've always had terrible skin, which has gotten unbelievably more terrible since I had these children. My whole face is one big blackhead, and I'd love to go back on the Retin-A, but that stuff causes SEVERE birth defects, and they won't even prescribe it to a woman in her childbearing years. Honey sounds like a MUCH safer option.... if it really works? .-= TheFeministBreeder´s last post ..<a href="http://thefeministbreeder.typepad.com/the_feminist_breeder/2009/09/mothers-are-like-vampires.html" rel="nofollow">Mothers are like Vampires...</a> =-.

I just tried some rosemary-infused honey (gift from friend). I don't use it in my cooking much but I needed some today, then I remembered I should try it on my face. Oohwee! I scraped a nice glob off the wooden spoon onto my face, left the room where a fly was buzzing around cuz I was afraid it might land on me and how gross would that be??? I loved how it felt - like it was tightening my pores. Then I washed it off- not too fun, very sticky, next tiem I will put my hair up! I really yucky-upped one of my facecloths too, but afterwards? What glowing radiant skin I have! I felt like I'd just had an expensive facial. Thanks for this Amber! .-= Melodie´s last post ..<a href="http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/BreastfeedingMomsUnite/~3/dQxW_-QCvY4/" rel="nofollow">Monday Musings: Are You Going?</a> =-.

I've lost the plot with 'skin care regimes' - every product I buy seems to either dry out my skin or bring me out in spots. Maybe honey is the answer??! Does it need to be special honey though?
