First provide first-aid, or keep the area under water for 20 minutes. Honey is a natural antibiotic, which helps to prevent your burn from becoming infected. It has a natural ph balance that is inhospitable to bacteria, so once applied topically, it can also kill any existing bacteria or infection lingering on the skin. Honey will also cool the burn, relieve pain, and help the skin to heal.
