More uses for honey
Have you tried our honey and brown sugar scrub bar? If not, you can try some of these all natural preparations at home:
For a soothing facial: Blend 2 tablespoons of honey with 1/2 cup of ground oatmeal. Add a few teaspoons of water to thin the consistency to your preference. Apply evenly to your clean face. After 30 minutes, remove with a soft, damp washcloth. Admire your glowing skin!
Enjoy a milk and honey bath: Add around 1/3 cup of honey to 2 1/4 cups of milk. Mix thoroughly. You can even add a few drops of essential oil (not too much!!) to give your honey milk bath additional scent. Place into your bath water and enjoy.
Make a soothing honey body moisturizer. Mix 1/2 cup of honey with 1 cup of cold water and a teaspoon of apple cider vinegar. Mix thoroughly and apply to your entire body after your shower.
Relieve sore throat pain and stop coughs - Mix honey with a little lemon juice and take several teaspoons a day when you have a sore throat. This has wonderful soothing properties for a sore throat.
Mix honey with olive oil and apply to the end of your hair to combat dryness and reduce frizz. Leave in your hair for 20 minutes with a hot towel wrapped around it. Rinse and use a mild shampoo.

Pumpkin Oil Properties

Pumpkin seed oil and pumpkin pulp are absolutely packed full of properties thought to be useful for skin regeneration and rejuvenating, rich in vitamins A, C, and E essential fatty acids, and antioxidants. Pumpkin seed oil and Pumpkin pulp are traditionally both known to be especially well suited for their ability to soothe inflamed skin, skin sores, eczema and psoriasis.
The viscous oil is light green to dark red in colour depending on the thickness of the sample. Used together with yoghurt, the colour turns to bright green and is sometimes referred to as "green-gold".
Pumpkin seed oil has an intense nutty taste and is rich in polyunsaturated fatty acids. Brown oil has a bitter taste. Pumpkin seed oil serves as a salad dressing when combined with honey or olive oil. The typical Styrian dressing consists of pumpkin seed oil and cider vinegar. But the oil is also used for desserts, giving ordinary vanilla ice cream an exquisite nutty taste. Using it as a cooking oil, however, destroys its essential fatty acids.
