Skin care experts discuss the benefits of honey


RX for Brown Skin for African American skin care products

While there are many great African American skin care products on the market that can help protect your skin from the coming winter months, there are also natural substances that you can use to give yourself an added level of protection. 


For example, skin care expert Jackie Gomez is teaming up with the National Honey Board this month to talk about the benefits of the sweet condiment for the skin.


"We all strive for moisturized skin, especially during winter months," said Catherine Barry, director of marketing for the National Honey Board. "Honey is your skin's best friend because it is a humectant, which means it attracts and retains moisture."


Barry and Gomez explained how to create a simple moisturizing mask by simply combining honey, avocado and milk. On the website Mielpura.org, they offer many different recipes and tips for how to use honey and other natural substances to help skin stay soft and smooth during the harsh winter weather.


Using these ingredients along with your usual African American skin care product may be the key to staying gorgeous this season.
