How To Make An Aspirin And Honey Scrub

Making an aspirin and honey scrub is very easy. Besides being very beneficial for your health, it will also help improve the appearance of your skin by making it lighter and fresher. Below we explain why making an aspirin and honey mask is a great choice for your appearance.

A great combination for a face mask

This combination is a very popular recipe for beauty products. This is because it combines the properties that aspirin and honey have to offer.

Aspirin is the commercial name for acetylsalicylic acid, a popular pain reliever found in many pain relievers.

When you combine aspirin with bee honey, it creates a scrub that helps you remove the layers of dead skin cells on your face and treat skin imperfections.

Aspirin and honey are useful for skin care

Aspirin is a popular medicine because it helps reduce fever and has analgesic and anti-inflammatory properties. Therefore, it can be found in almost every home.

However, that’s not all it can do. You can also use aspirin to make homemade cosmetics for your skin and even your scalp!

Aspirin is very useful for treating rough and dry skin. In addition, it is also effective for treating dandruff and other scalp problems.

Using an aspirin and honey scrub provides many benefits for your facial skin, including the following:

• It helps to lighten small dark spots. (However, this depends on your skin tone and how dark the spots are.)
• The anti-inflammatory properties of aspirin benefit the treatment of infections and acne.
• This mixture also helps minor wounds heal faster, meaning it can help heal pimples.

Bee honey is truly amazing

Bee honey is a fascinating natural product. To collect enough nectar to make just under half a kilogram of honey, 60,000 honeybees have to visit more than 2 million flowers. Is not that great?

Honey is rich in enzymes, vitamins and minerals such as:

• potassium
• calcium
• phosphorus
• iron
• magnesium
• vitamins C, B and K

Homeopathic medicine has many different uses for bee honey. Still, you can benefit from honey in more ways than just ingesting the honey.

Honey is also widely used in all kinds of beauty treatments and facial masks. There are numerous known benefits of this product.

Using an aspirin and honey scrub gives your skin powerful antimicrobial and antiseptic benefits. Plus, it helps to smooth and moisturize your skin.

How do you make a peeling with aspirin and honey?

The following aspirin and honey scrub is beneficial for all skin types.

• You have to be careful if you have sensitive skin. In this case, you can apply the mask once every fifteen days.
• If you have oily or combination skin, you can use the mask twice a week.

For acne-prone skin, we recommend using this mask as it really helps to eliminate pimples and blackheads.

If you have serious skin conditions, such as pimples or cystic acne, you can add aloe vera to the mixture. This is a powerful antibiotic that can help prevent bacterial infections in these types of skin conditions.

This aspirin and honey scrub helps to close pores while removing skin imperfections. Plus, it helps control oil, which in turn helps eliminate the blackheads we all hate.

If you are allergic to any of these ingredients or notice an allergic reaction to the scrub, stop using it immediately.

Ingredients

• 2 or 3 aspirin pills
• 1 or 2 tablespoons bottled or distilled water (15 to 30 ml)
• 1 tablespoon bee honey (25 g)

Instructions

• Crush the aspirin pills first. The best way to do this is to place them between two spoons. You can also use effervescent aspirin pills.

• Add a spoonful of bottled or distilled water and blend into a smooth paste. You can add a little more water, but only as needed.
• Then add the honey and mix well.
• Wash your face and make sure to remove all traces of dirt and makeup before applying this mask.
• Rub the mask all over your face, avoiding the eye area.
• Gently massage your skin with your fingertips to enhance the exfoliating effect.
• Let the mask sit for six to seven minutes to allow it to activate properly.
• Finally, rinse the mask with plenty of lukewarm water.

Possible variations

For oily or acne-prone skin, you can add a spoonful of lemon juice to the above recipe. Lemon juice is high in vitamin C, which enhances the honey’s antimicrobial properties. This makes this solution very effective for serious skin conditions such as cystic acne.

Another option is to add a spoonful of aloe vera. Thanks to its astringent properties, aloe vera helps to close pores, reduce inflammation and promote healing. If that’s not enough, it’s also very moisturizing!

For dry skin, add one to two scoops (about 30 ml) of yogurt to your aspirin and honey mixture. This product helps to hydrate dry skin and make it radiant again.

If you have any questions about these treatments, consult a dermatologist. Also, if your skin turns red after applying this mask, stop using it immediately and consult your skin doctor.
