Tried everything for pigmentation and nothing works? This kitchen remedy made up of cinnamon and honey could be the answer you are looking for.
If you are dealing with stubborn skin pigmentation, a simple remedy, and only two ingredients, could work like magic. Skin care expert Mansi Gulati shared this tip to help us glow on Instagram. She claims that this remedy had faded pigmentation on her skin that had lasted more than 10 years!
A mixture of two common kitchen ingredients will somehow be able to reduce pigmentation that has long-ago set in. You can use the paste for your face, or consume it for the double benefits.
Cinnamon and honey are both common kitchen ingredients. Together they are effective in skin healing and promoting our natural glow.
Cinnamon is loaded with antioxidants. It provides anti-inflammatory properties and antibacterial benefits. It increases blood circulation, combats acne, and improves skin texture. When taken internally, cinnamon helps with digestion and regulates blood sugar, which improves our skin health from the inside.
Honey is a natural humectant, which helps to hydrate our skin. It contains vitamins, minerals, and enzymes that help repair skin damage. Honey also alleviates irritation and provides skin with a soft natural glow.
Soak about 2-3 sticks of cinnamon in honey for 3 hours or so. Make sure the honey covers the cinnamon.
The honey absorbs the best nutrients from the cinnamon after it soaks in there for some time.
1. As Mask
Take a little bit of the soaked honey and put in a clean face.
Leave the mask on your face for about 15-20 minutes, before rinsing your face with warm water.
You can do this 2-3 times a week for effect.
2. Drink For Inner Glow
Put 1 tsp of cinnamon soaked honey in a glass of warm/hot water.
Drink it every morning on empty stomach.
It helps detoxify your body, reduces inflammation, and enhances the glow of your skin.
Unlike products containing chemicals, this is a safe and gentle remedy. It treats pigmentation both internally and externally.
Overtime, your skin will begin to reveal itself to be smoother, clearer, and brighter.
You don’t need to pay a lot of money to have good skin. This remedy is cheap and easy to make at home, but you have to be consistent with it. Once you’ve found a recipe you like, use it regularly until you see results.
Always do a patch test before using a new ingredient on your skin. Do not use this remedy if you suffer from an allergy to honey or cinnamon. You should also consult your doctor if you have sensitive skin or any pre-existing personal issues.
