directions

  • Pour baking soda into a clean glass container. Add the honey. Now slowly add water a very small amount at a time, and using the handle of a spoon, form mixture into a thick paste.
  • Apply paste onto clean skin of face taking care to avoid eyes and nostril area. Allow the paste to sit for 15-20min. It will begin to feel drier, but not hard or too tight. You may feel a very slight tingle.
  • Moisten a washcloth with warm water, wring it out, and buff the paste off face using gentle circular motions. Then rinse thoroughly with water and pat dry.
  • Any left over mixture can be used the next day or two. Just add a little water if it has hardened. Or, add water to leftover paste and use in the shower on your body as an exfoliator.
