Apple Honey Acne Facial

For this apple honey acne facial remedy, our skincare experts tell us the common apple has many skin beautifying properties.   Apples are also rich with Vitamins C, E, A, K, as well minerals Zinc and Copper, all of which are useful for healthy skin.   These vitamins help to protect your skin from free radical damage, reduce the appearance of wrinkles, calm redness and acne breakouts, restore and repair skin cells, maintain pH levels, and keep skin moisturize.

Also, the flesh and juice of Braeburn apples allegedly have properties which help combat UV rays (we’re still trying to find why this variety is touted as a UV soldier).
