Sweet like honey! These life hacks for using honey in your beauty routine are everything

Ladies, it's no secret that we're always trying to find that beyond perfect beauty product, right? Whether it's for our hair or our skin -- it feels like we spend a lifetime searching for just the right product to take us over the edge from "decent" to "fabulous." But the thing is, not only are they often ridiculously expensive, but typically, they don't work the way we want them too. So, instead of shoveling out tons of cash on ineffective products and ending up sorely disappointed, why not go the DIY route and create your own beauty?

Lucky for us, there are plenty of all-natural beauty hacks to choose from. One of our current favorites actually comes from a little black and yellow pollinating bug. That's right, we're talking about honey! If you didn't previously know that honey is not only a delicious sweet treat, but that it can also help sweeten up your looks -- then we've got a lot to teach you! Check out these 4 awesome beauty hacks for honey.

All you need is:

• A teaspoon of honey, a tablespoon of sugar and a few drops of lemon.

• Pop in the microwave for about 3 minutes until the mixture forms a paste.

• Take one teaspoon of honey, one teaspoon of coconut oil, two tablespoons of apple cider vinegar, and mix
• After shampooing, apply to your hair from root to tips.

4. Exfoliator

• Take brown sugar, honey, and lemon juice and make into a mixture that is thick enough to rub all over your skin.
