Now, go to your pantry and grab the following:
1. Honey
2. Baking soda
3. Calamansi (You can use lemons or skip this part if you have uber sensitive skin.)

Let's go ahead and get started! First, place a tablespoon or so baking soda in a clean mixing bowl. Cut your calamansi or lemon in half and squeeze out the juice. Make sure to remove those seeds! Don't panic if you see the mixture fizzing and bubbling. It's a common reaction when you mix alkaline (baking soda) and acid (calamansi). Do not add the calamansi if you plan on hitting the beach after! It has bleaching properties which will make your skin extra sensitive to the sun and even darker. If you choose to add calamansi, make sure to wear lots of sunscreen :)

Next, add in the honey. Honey has antibacterial properties which prevent formation of pimples plus it also is a great moisturizer. Honey not only attracts water but also helps retain and absorb it on our skin which makes our skin more hydrated.

Stir the three ingredients until well blended. Your mixture is now ready to be applied.
Prep your skin by washing it with your favorite face wash, pat dry, the apply the mixture to your face. Be sure to avoid the eye area. Let it sit on your skin for 10 to 15 minutes then wash with lukewarm water.
Enjoy!
Happy summer everyone!
