  • Cinnamon ā€“ rich in beneficial plant compounds and antioxidants, cinnamon helps treat hyperpigmentation and acne, plumps and lightens the skin, and decreases the signs of aging. 
  • Raw Honey ā€“ contains vitamins, minerals, amino acids, and antioxidants, that fight free radicals and improve the overall health of the skin. It is one of nature’s most revered skin remedies. Due to its antiseptic and antibacterial nature, it may benefit oily and acne-prone skin. Honey is also a natural humectant or moisturizer. It helps the skin stay moist but not oil, because humectants pull moisture from the skin without replacing it. This powerhouse will keep your skin hydrated all day long.Ā 
  • Agave ā€“ helps break down dead skin cells, while plumping the skin and decreasing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. Agave helps soothe irritated skin, while also brightening the skin. It is full of vitamins like A, B1, B2, K, D, and C, offering a range of anti-aging properties.Ā 
  • Lemon ā€“ can completely transform your skincare game by lightening dark spots, treating acne, and providing plumper, tighter skin. Lemons are high in Vitamin C, which is an antioxidant and a brightening agent. Using a face mask with a few drops of lemon juice will remove excess oil from your skin and reduce acne.Ā
