Honey
Honey is an excellent home remedy for wrinkles. Honey contains antioxidants that help fight the aging effects of free radicals and can also soothe irritated skin, reducing redness and swelling. In addition, honey is a humectant, meaning it draws moisture out of the air and into your skin to hydrate it. It’s also a natural exfoliant, meaning it helps slough off dead skin cells.
Honey has been used for centuries in different cultures as a beauty treatment, but recently honey has been studied scientifically for its skincare benefits. In 2005, a study found that applying honey twice daily reduced wrinkles by up to 37 percent after six months. A follow-up study in 2009 found similar results and noted that the benefits lasted three months after the honey was stopped.
