5 AMAZING THINGS YOU CAN DO WITH A BANANA PEEL

Spread the love
Banana peels aren’t useless
once the fruit enclosed in them is consumed. You thus shouldn’t be quick to
dispose of them. Jumia Travel, the
leading online travel agency, shares 5 beauty benefits of a banana peel that
you should take advantage of.

IT’’S A TEETH
WHITENER
Rubbing the inner part of a
piece of the peel gently over your teeth for a few minutes can help to whiten
your teeth. Be sure to do this once or twice a day and rinse off when you’re
done. Probably the only exception to this is those that have naturally brown
teeth, in that case a banana peel might not do much to help. In this case, a
visit to a dentist will better help you.
ACNE
TREATMENT
Simply massage the banana
peels gently on the blemish(es) or acne area of your body. Do it for a few
minutes (like 5 minutes) for like two or three times a day. The antioxidants
and nutrients in the peels will help to clear your blemishes and acne. Results
should be visible in a week, and keep applying it until the blemish or acne
disappears.
BRIGHTENS
YOUR SKIN
Gently rub the inner part
of the peel on the area(s) of your skin you want to brighten and rinse off
afterward. Do it as often as you can until you get your desired results.
MOISTURIZES YOUR
SKIN
Rubbing banana peels on the
dry areas of your skin helps to soften and hydrate the skin. Gently massage the
peels on the dry areas and do so as often as you can until you get your desired
results.
IT CAN
FUNCTION AS A POLISH
Shoes, leather and silver
can be made to shine instantly by rubbing a banana peel on them.
NOTE
It is important to keep
certain things in mind when using a banana peel for the above beauty reasons.
·          A
fresh banana peel is the most appropriate to use for the best results.
·          A
banana peel should be used immediately and not kept for long.
·          Never
store banana peels in a refrigerator.
·   Refrain from being
careless with banana peels. As you know, because of their slippery nature they
can cause accidents when left on floors etc.
