Why Banana Peels and Cornstarch are Good for Wrinkles
- Plump the Skin: The high potassium acts like a tiny internal water magnet, taking away the “dry” and “sunken” look of aging skin.
- Tighten Pores: The cornstarch acts like a tiny natural starch to wash out the “large” and “open” feeling from your cheeks and nose.
- Brighten Dark Spots: The lutein and vitamins act like a tiny natural bleach to keep the “shadowy” and “spotted” look away from your eyes.
- Boost Elasticity: The minerals and oils help the skin stay tight and makes the “creasy” and “worn-out” look disappear.
