Honey |
Part Used
Liquid honey does not spoil. Because of its high sugar concentration, it kills bacteria by plasmolysis . Natural airborne yeasts cannot become active in it because the moisture content is too low.
Benefit
Honey is a humectant, which means it attracts and retains moisture. Honey also acts as an anti-irritant, making it suitable for sensitive skin and baby care products. Honey can help exfoliate the skin. Increased exfoliation, or renewal of the skin cells, can give skin a younger, more vibrant look.
