The name sounds good, huh? Imagine what the feel will be like. Let me help you with that one a little―picture an air conditioned room, soft music in the background, the sweet scent of lavender wafting in the air and a warm honey face mask on your face. Mmm... do this and you could just drift off to sleep and the day's tensions would just bid you adieu one by one. Who says a honey mask is only good for skin care? It can work wonders with your stress levels as well. Especially if you apply it in the way I just described above.

Cause there really are a whole lot of benefits that you can get out of applying a honey mask.
