Honey is a great cleanser with its skin lightening characteristics. It contains an extra moisture within itself which renders the skin a good hydration. This in turn helps the skin to prevent and reduce fine lines and all blemishes.
Honey mainly contains proline, a non essential amino acid which is also used in most of the collagen products. This is what that gives honey a beautiful orange-golden shade. This element is highly responsible in building and repairing collagen, obviously a great anti-ageing product gifted by nature.
On the other hand, the acetic acid and citric acid contained in honey acts in quick healing of damaged and tanned skin, removes dead cells efficiently, fades dark spots, blemishes and freckles. It is a great exfoliate which improves the skin texture and color on regular use without any side effects.
Brown Sugar is rich in natural acetic acid and glycolic acid which actively removes the dead cells of the skin.
