The use of milk and honey in beauty treatments dates back to the time of Cleopatra. She is famously known for taking milk and honey baths to keep her skin beautiful. Perhaps this was the secret to the mesmerizing spell of one of the most wanted women of her time.

What can milk and honey do for your skin?

Milk and honey contain wonderful properties, so together they make a great cleanser for the skin. The lactic acid in milk is an alpha-hydroxy acid that naturally assists with exfoliation.

Honey opens the pores, helping clear away dirt. Because honey is cleansing, it is very helpful in the treatment of acne. Honey is a humectant and moisturizes the skin by actually drawing moisture to the skin.

If you want glowing skin, milk and honey are a perfect combination to use. Many spas offer versions of milk and honey body treatments, but you do not need to go to the spa to enjoy this skin miracle.

The lavender buds used in this recipe are mostly for aromatherapy, but lavender itself is soothing to irritated and dry skin. Plus lavender, like honey, contains antioxidants that fight aging and help contribute to glowing skin.
