As I suit honey a house SPA procedure

To weekly the SPA procedures and close "relationship" with honey I told about the love in the previous posts. And though I am not a fan of self-made masks from fruit, berries and I do them extremely seldom, honey in this list is an exception. There is a couple of the simple and checked by time and me recipes of beauty where honey is one of the main ingredients of beauty and good mood.

Honey wrapping for hands

Handles toilers demand permanent and high-quality care. And though I do the majority of house procedures in gloves, nevertheless continuous contact with water, detergents and also garden and garden works comes the way of them with interest. Therefore hand creams at me always with a stock, and during week-end I like to indulge them with masochka and honey wrapping. For wrapping I take good nutritious cream or body oil and I add a little warm honey there.


If honey already managed to zakristallizirovatsya, accurately I soften it on a water bath, observing temperature condition that it did not overheat, at strong heating honey loses the useful properties. If it liquid consistence, then just I warm up it in hot water - I put necessary amount of honey in a small bowl and I lower in a plate with hot water. In a few minutes it can be added to cream. I pour in honey a thin stream, constantly stirring slowly with a nimbus to uniform consistence. A ratio of honey and cream I take about one to one. I apply ready weight on clean dry hands (if desired they can be steamed out previously a little bit, having taken in warm water five minutes), I put on polyethylene gloves and I leave on hands of 25-30 minutes. Then I wash away warm water and I enjoy feeling of soft, well-groomed handles with velvet and silky skin.


Honey and coffee body scrub

The idea to make such srub at me arose for a long time - the big pack of coffee beans was open already more, than half a year. Coffee with the husband was not pleasant to us, and it was a pity to throw out semi-kilogram packing. And somehow by itself the recipe of a house srub which was so strongly extolled several years ago by my friend was remembered.

For it it is required:

- ground coffee (for myself in the coffee grinder I do an average grinding)
- liquid honey
- at will it is possible to add several drops of essential oil of orange and a little shower gel
- an empty jar for ready means


Frankly speaking, I do not know exact proportions and I never adhere and I always do "approximately". Beru two-three tablespoons of honey, I add several drops of essential oil there and I fill in with this mix already processed coffee. If the srub turns out ropish, I add a little more honey if, on the contrary, liquid, then I fill up coffee. Properly I mix everything and the srub is ready to use.


The srub turns out so fragrant that it wants to be used again and again! And skin becomes more elastic, fresh and very gentle. That the most pleasant - is not present feeling of dryness after the procedure of scrubbing, honey so moisturized and saturated the skin that it does not need additional putting cream. If there is no desire to prepare a srub every time new, it is possible to make on several applications at once and to store in the refrigerator in a container with densely zakryvayushcheyusya a cover no more than a week. And better after all it is simple namolot coffee for the future and before a campaign to the bathroom it is simple to mix already ready ingredients - on it no more than a minute will leave.
