Honey not only tastes great, but it also works wonders for your skin. Raw honey is made up of live bacteria, enzymes and plant extract – all amazing components that add unique properties to skincare products! Honey’s bacteria helps to balance out your skin’s bacteria levels, therefore speeding up the healing of acne and other skin conditions. Honey is also a natural exfoliator, stripping away dead skin cells and leaving skin rejuvenated and refreshed. Below we’ve curated a list of the top rated honey skincare picks on Picky, covering products from all steps in your skincare routine.

Avoid products containing honey if you have an allergy to pollen or bee venom.
