Perhaps
the most widely used application for honey outside of baking/cooking,
is in the beauty industry with beeswax being used in many lipsticks
today.
Cleopatra made the milk and honey bath famous. One of the main reasons that honey is used in beauty products is
because it attracts and retains moisture.
Honey is used in
moisturizing products ranging from skin cleaners, exfoliants and creams
to hair products like shampoo and conditioner.
