Almond oil is the best oil to use on the skin because its non greasy on the skin and moisturizing as well. Its even better than olive oil for skin (its more expensive than olive oil though)

I tried this and I have to admit that almond oil is just wonderful. Smells GREAT! The only thing I may suggest is using a bit of an emulsifier like bees' wax. The honey doesn't seem to blend that well with the oil.

Whenever possible get honey strait from a local beekeeper. Store bought honey has been heated and filtered to look more attractive. Unfortunately this takes some of the nutrients and vitamins from it.

I've used honey to remove age spots and rid my skin of acne. It is a very healing to wounds too. It makes a great natural preservative because of its high potassium content as well.

Don't forget, honey makes an awesome and simple face wash as well!!!
