We hate blemishes on our skin either face or neck. Don't we? The tip I have is from my grandma.

You would need:
Lime or lemon juice - a few drops
Raw Honey - 1/2 tsp
Turmeric - a pinch

Procedure:
Mix a few drops of lime/lemon juice, with 1/2 tsp of raw honey and a pinch of turmeric (optional) and apply it to your skin regularly. Leave it for 15 mins before washing.

By: Elna Botes van Schalkwyk

Ingredients:

• 2 teaspoons beeswax
• 8 teaspoons olive oil
• 2 teaspoons honey
• 6 drops essential oil of our choice
• several old chapstick tubes, small tins, pill boxes, or other small containers with lids

Method:

Grate the beeswax with a cheese grater, mix it in with the olive oil, and heat it on the stove until the beeswax melts. Once the wax is all melted, remove from heat. Let it cool for a while, then stir in the honey and the orange oil. Pour into your containers. The mixture will turn solid after a while.
