We Go Bananas for Natural Banana Beauty Treatments

Are you bananas for natural banana beauty treatments?


Famed as an excellent source of potassium, the banana’s health and beauty benefits
are rich and plentiful.
If you have a bunch of bananas on hand, in addition to munching on them, you can
use them to make an excellent moisturizer for your dry or cracked skin.
Bananas assist with healthy circulation and muscle function, regulate blood sugar
levels and promote healthy digestion.
Their high levels of vitamin C aid the immune system and helps to create healthy-
looking skin.
As a natural beauty aid, both the fruit and its peel can be applied to tighten and
moisturize skin, leaving it with a fresh glow.
 
You can blend lots of other foods with bananas to make effective natural skin care
treatments for pennies.
For example, you can add olive oil which works as a moisturizer and helps to
brighten your skin.
Try this simple moisturizing treatment.
