Benefits -

Honey has anti-bacterial properties and can also help eczema with its anti-inflammatory properties to calm the skin.

Olive oil is very rich in vitamins, minerals and natural fatty acids, it is great for sensitive skin. It prevents skin aging, the appearance of wrinkles it also nourishes, rejuvenates and protects the skin.

Lemon is also known for its anti-bacterial properties, It can help reduce the excess oil of the skin, It can reduce the appearance of acne so this will be great to use all over your back. Lemon juice can help with the appearance of age marks less visible, it can help with chapped lips and as there's nothing harmful in this recipe you could scrub a bit of this on your lips as a little lip scrub and lastly lemon I am told is great for removing fake tin mishaps so this will be a fab body scrub for fake tan fans like myself.
