Homemade Honey Beauty Secrets!








After much persuasion,
Rebecca revealed her beauty secrets!
Haven't you always marveled
at her perfect skin?
Well this is how she accidentally
developed these recipes!

You see, due to a generous Bee-Keeper helper,
William retrieves all the honey he is able
from the gifted natural honeycombs,
and then he gives the emptied honeycombs
to Rebecca for candle making.
And because she accumulates a substantial
amount of honey as she preps the wax
she ended up creating these recipes!
Waste not...want not!
