3. Banana Peel Face Masks for Soft, Glowing Skin
Advertisement
Face masks are among the most common use for banana peels in skin softening. Easy to make at home, these masks can help your skin in many different ways. First mashing the inside side of a ripe banana peel until it has a paste-like consistency can help you to make a basic banana peel mask. For this you might use a blender or a fork. Once you have your banana peel paste, you can avoid the eye region by straight-forward application on your face. Wear the mask for 15 to 20 minutes then rinse off with lukewarm water. This basic mask leaves your skin feeling smooth and rejuvenated by helping it to moisturize and soften. Combining the banana peel paste with additional natural components will provide more advantages. For instance, combining the banana peel paste with a spoonful of honey will improve its moisturizing qualities and provide antibacterial action. Your banana peel face mask can be tailored to meet particular skin problems. To help oily or acne-prone skin, toss a few drops of tea tree oil into the banana peel paste. Natural antibacterial qualities of tea tree oil enable one to fight the germs causing acne. For dry or older skin, think about combining the banana peel paste with mashed avocado in a tablespoon measure. Rich in good fats, avocados can give the skin great nutrition and deep hydration. One more variant is to toss the banana peel paste with a tablespoon of basic yogurt. Yogurt's lactic acid offers mild exfoliation; the probiotics help to regulate the skin's microbiota. For people with sensitive skin, an aloe vera gel and banana peel paste combo can be restful and peaceful. Regular usage of banana peel face masks, around once or twice a week, might result over time smoother, more vibrant skin. Although most skin types find these masks generally harmless, some people may have allergic responses. Before donning any new mask over your whole face, always do a patch test. Before including banana peel masks into your skincare regimen, also be sure to see a dermatologist if you have any current skin problems or concerns.
