1. Lemon

Lemon is probably the best cleansing ingredient you can use for your beauty routine due to its antibacterial properties. Lemon's antibacterial and anti fungal properties make it a natural alternative to treat acne. What is more, as it is known citrus are full of vitamin C and antioxidants which are a perfect combination of anti-aging. All in all, it’s the ideal solution for someone who wants to enrich their skin with vitamins and antioxidants and simultaneously taking care of their oily skin.

2. Honey

Honey is full of nutrients, antioxidants, and other anti-aging, skin clarifying, and moisturizing ingredients that make it a must-have among natural beauty experts. This is why there are many cosmetics e.g facial masks, shower gels, and body lotions that contain honey. It is generally considered to be a humectant and skin conditioning agent. This is very important as most people with oily skin focus on reducing the excess of sebum and forget that moisturizing is also important.

3. Combining Honey and Lemon

Even if you cleaned your face at night and you removed your make-up, in the morning you need to clean your face again with a mild cleanser, such as a lemon, honey and aloe cleansing gel. Immediately you will feel your skin much cleaner, lighter, and smoother. This cleanser is ideal for dull skins to glow, as well as youthful skins with a tendency for acne and black spots.

Water
Lemon juice
Honey
Aloe (optional)

Instructions: Mix equal parts of all four materials and shake well in a container. Make a small quantity for 3-4 days.

Use it only in the morning and never forget your sunscreen cream especially when exposed to the sun.
