Follow along as I show you some ways to combine honey with other superfoods to make face masks that will benefit your skin.

Disclaimer: When applied to the skin, turmeric can sometimes cause temporary staining, so please proceed with caution! You may wish to use slightly less turmeric than the recipe recommends.
Tools and materials:
- Raw honey
- Turmeric powder
- Plain yogurt
- Jojoba oil
- Small bowl and spoon
- Assorted glass jars for storing
1. Honey and turmeric mask
Combine 2 tablespoons of raw honey with ½ teaspoon of turmeric powder in a small bowl. Stir to combine.
This combination of honey and turmeric is great for healing, protecting, and clearing your skin.
Store it in a glass jar, and when ready to use, apply a thin layer on your clean face. Leave the mask on for 15 minutes. This mask can be kept in your refrigerator for 2 to 3 weeks.
2. Honey and yogurt mask
This mask will brighten, hydrate, smooth, and moisturize your skin.
Mix together 2 tablespoons of plain yogurt with 1 tablespoon of raw honey.
Apply the mask to your face and leave it on for 20 minutes. Then rinse the mask off.
Because this mask uses yogurt, you should make it fresh every time you are going to use it.
3. Honey and oil mask
This mask will promote healthy glowing skin.
Combine 4 tablespoons of Jojoba oil and 1 tablespoon of raw honey.
Use a funnel to pour the mixture into a small glass bottle with a dropper top.
To use this honey and oil mask, shake it to recombine and apply 2 to 3 drops to your skin. Leave it on for 30 minutes or overnight. This mask can be kept in your refrigerator for 2 to 3 weeks.
The best ways to use honey for skin
Go ahead – open up your jar of honey and start mixing. You can use these masks 2 to 3 times a week, depending on your skin type – but as with any skin care regimen, do a test patch first to make sure your skin isn’t allergic to any of the ingredients. Then witness all the benefits to your skin that these three honey face masks have to offer.
