Herbalists have praised honey as a beauty aid for centuries with very good reason. It is a terrific humectant–meaning it helps our skin to retain moisture, making it softer and smoother, and rejuvenating our appearance.
When we invite the golden sweetness of honey into our tub, it becomes a skin-nourishing treat for body and soul. Let the bees show you the way to smoother, fresher-looking skin:
INGREDIENTS
2 tablespoons honey
1 cup hot water
2 drops lavender essential oil (optional)
1. Dissolve the honey in the hot water, then add essential oil and stir to mix.
2. Pour mixture into bathwater and soak for 10 to 15 minutes.

Thanks for the article and the hint, Faith B.
Bees work so very hard and give their lives for this stuff and you waste it in your bathwater?! I could see the use for food or medicine but not to waste for cosmetic reasons. The bees are robbed of their life's work and given cheap sugar water in compensation. Don't waste their lives for bathwater!
