Oranges are a great summer fruit. Oranges help to raise the Vitamin C content in your body which is very helpful for your skin and hair both. This juicy fruit contains anti-inflammatory properties which are important to boost your immunity and also improve your dental health. Oranges are a great source of fiber and they should be a part of your daily platter.
You will be amazed to know that not only oranges but even orange peels also have so many benefits for your skin. Yes, orange peels are very good in removing tan and taking care of your pigmentation and facial oil.
Here I will show you how to make Orange Peel Powder at home
- Getting orange peels – eat the pulps of oranges and preserve those peels in a big plate or bowl.
- Sunbath them – Everyday you need to put the pulps out in the sun. let them dry and get hard completely. In summers you will need a maximum of 2-3 days to get completely hard orange peels. But in winter you will require some more days.
- Collect Them – Keep them collecting in the same bowl. And keep drying them every day. Make sure that you have orange peels of at least 25-30 oranges and then only proceed to the next step.
- Grind – Grind this super dried orange peels into a fine powder. You should not add even a single drop of water. If the powder is not fine then you can beat it with a mortar. But you shouldn’t add any liquid.
- Store – Now, comes the time for storage. The powder needs to be stored in an airtight container so that there is no contact of it with water.
- Use – now, everyday take out 1-2 tablespoon of powder and mix it with your desired liquid and apply it on your face.
This is your perfect homemade scrub. This is a bit harsh on your face but nothing that your skin can’t tolerate.
I have dry skin that does not have any acne or pore issues. My only issue is tanning and dull skin. I use this homemade scrub every day. I haven’t faced any difficulty in using this scrub daily.
But I feel since the scrub is coarse, sensitive and acne-prone skin people can face breakouts with this scrub. Thus, you can use it on alternate or even only once or twice a week. The best advice is to try and then understand how it is fairing on your skin and then decide the usage.
Usage
The best part about this DIY orange Peel Powder face masks is that it is completely homemade, plus you can use them as per your requirement and time.
And another important point here is that you can add any liquid as per your skin type. For example, if you are suffering from dark circle issues then add the potato puree. You just want a refreshing face pack and if your only skin issue is dull skin just like me, then add the cucumber puree and so on.
