This scrub contains water which helps detoxifying so its importance is also essential.
Honey is a real sweet miracle worker and combined with other key ingredients makes a great facial scrub.
It also has the high ability to moisturize and nourish because the sugar it contains retains water.
So if you will make a habit from using honey in your cosmetic treatments, your complexion will become firmer, brighter and will also reduce fine lines or wrinkles.

- Shedding the dead layer of the skin
- Revitalizes the skin

Hi can the scrub be applied on the eyelid and under the eye?Pls comment soonest. Thank you and hv a lovely day ahead.
Usually face scrubs are not recommended to be applied around the eyes (on the eyelid and immediately under the eye).
So, no, its best not to apply it under the eye or over your eye lid, but just around the aye area.
Instead I sometimes (every time I remember) apply a bit of honey with my fingertips just around the eyes (but not on my eye lids) and spread it with care (avoiding putting it into my eyes).
Honey works wonders on my skin: looks refreshed, toned and nourished.
So if you wish, you can apply honey directly below your eyes, and face scrub on the rest of your face and neck (that is how I usually do it).
I hope that helped Nita.
Good luck and a great day to you too 🙂
