It also possesses anti-inflammatory properties that help reduce irritation, rashes, and swelling.”“For hydration, you can make a pack with saffron and honey. Just take one tablespoon of honey and two or three strands of saffron. Massage your face using this mix in upward circular motion and leave it for a few minutes before rinsing it off with water. The two together can give a luminous skin with a unique freshness to it,” Richa reveals.
