When it comes to the health of your skin, you often don’t have look much further than your kitchen for some fantastic natural ingredients. Instead of buying something from a store with a long list of ingredients that you’ve never heard of before, rather bypass the chemicals and unknowns, and keep it au naturel. Not only are you keeping your sensitive skin clean, buy you’ll also be saving money on the inexpensive ingredients.

Honey, Cinnamon, Nutmeg
These three simple ingredients are all you need to exfoliate, moisturize, get rid of blemishes, and even out the tone of your skin. Once a week should be enough, but if you just wake up one morning and your skin isn’t feeling all that hot, go right ahead and mix up your concoction!

Honey, Egg White
I know that literally having egg on your face may not sound like the best idea, but you’ll be thanking me later when your pores are tighter and you face feels smoother and softer. Leave this on for about 20 minutes and keep it up once a week.
