Hide those $150 jars of
wrinkle cream and trash that box of half used, over hyped, brand name lotion…
when it comes to your skin, there’s a new kid in town… and her name is Honey!
Celebrity skin care guru
Jackie Gomez, who perfects the faces of Zoe Saldana, Beyonce, and Sara Ramirez,
has just partnered up with the National Honey Board (yeah, we didn’t know that
existed either) to bring the good news:
that you don’t need to pay for expensive treatments to get that year
round healthy skin and lips glow.
“Honey’s properties make it
an ideal, do-it-yourself beauty ingredient. Not only is it a great all-natural
moisturizer for skin, but you’ll also spend a fraction of the cost and look
like a million dollars.” Says Gomez.
We all know that the winter
months are harshest to our skin, so Jackie has come to the rescue and released
some of her favorite at home
recipes that are cost effective, and should have you looking radiant in no
time!
