Honey isn't just a delicious sweetener: It turns out it's got some pretty neat skin care benefits too, thanks to its antioxidant and antimicrobial nature. A study published in the Journal of Cosmetic Dermatology notes that honey is great at softening and soothing skin and even slowing down the formation of wrinkles. Other research points to honey's ability to speed up the healing of wounds, while yet other research points out that honey is good at preventing the growth of Propionibacterium acnes, a bacteria that causes acne.

So, since slathering your face in actual honey would be pretty messy, we're choosing to reap the stuff's skin care benefits in a better way: By stocking up on the following honey-infused skin care products.
