Serena Williams Reveals Her Manuka Honey Skincare Secret

Serena Williams has tens of millions of fans around the world, and not just because she is the GOAT of women’s tennis. Her fans also want to know how she keeps her skin so beautiful, especially considering her schedule. Well, as it turns out, she has an organic skincare routine that included a Manuka honey facial mask.

Never the Same

While Serena stated that she likes to mix up her routine, there are some favorites that she goes to a on regular basis. At the top of that list would using coconut oil to cleanse her face. She literally puts a healthy portion of the oil on her hands, then wipes it over her entire face, including her lips. After she wipes its off, she does it again, also using a gentle sponge to help remove her makeup.

She stated, “Every day my face and beauty routine is different. I’m so busy. I don’t have time to, sadly, take care of myself the way I want to … So I’ve kind of created a routine that still makes me feel good.”

Williams will also sometimes exfoliate, but it is not something she does every day. On this, she stated,  “I don’t exfoliate a lot. I usually exfoliate once a week. One small little tip that I do, I actually exfoliate the back of my hands, because you gotta keep your hands looking fresh, too.” Like many women, Williams uses serums to fight the signs of aging.

Another trick she likes to use is face masks. She stated, “After the serum, I always do my light mask. The mask has different colored light settings that serve different purposes. Blue helps treat acne, red helps treat inflammation, and yellow helps treat age spots and discoloration, according to the brand’s site (DMH Aesthetics Light Shield).

In addition to that mask, Serena also likes to use a Manuka honey face mask. While you can purchase these, they can expensive, so it is far less costly to make your own. You can apply the Manuka honey directly to your face alone or add ingredients, such as essential oils to the mix.
