Orange Peel
Orange peels or skins have multifaceted benefits for a clear and brighter complexion. They can help remove blemishes, including the ugly marks that acne-prone people often deal with after a breakout. They can also improve the skin’s texture and work like magic for an even skin tone.
There is more than one reason not to throw away orange peels once the fibers and juices are consumed, and they are all for better skin health. Orange peels have anti-microbial and anti-inflammatory properties; both can help clear away skin blemishes. They also have citric acid, which lightens scars and increases the skin’s elasticity.
As a topical treatment for acne scars, orange peels are best used in powder form. In this case, thinly sliced peels are dried and dehydrated under the sun before being pulsed to a fine ground using a blender or food processor. Then, they are combined with either honey or yogurt to create a paste, then applied to the affected area. Once the pasty blend dries up, wash it with cold water. Use this unique homemade formula at least twice a week to see a significant difference in the appearance of acne scars.
