Dark Spots? Try These Orange Peel Powder Face Packs For Acne Prone Skin

Orange! This citrus fruit is abundant in antioxidants and vitamin C, which makes it an outstanding option for healthy drinks and fruits. Do you love sipping on orange juice glasses? But have you ever thought, what these delightful oranges have to do with your skin? To look healthier and younger, you need to have perfect looking and smooth skin. Want to get a healthy-looking skin? Then you need something rich in vitamin C and antioxidants (present in oranges). It helps tone and tightens the skin, making it look a lot healthier and younger. On the other hand, the citric acid in the orange peel gives you a natural glow, helping to exfoliate the skin.

But what is the first thing to do? Peel 3-4 oranges, dry their peels and wash it with clean water. You can even use refined water to wash the peels, as it will eliminate all the dirt from the peel. Now let orange peels dry under the sun (for a couple of days). However, you must ensure that they are covered with a net or thin cloth to keep other impurities and dust away. Grind the orange peels (once dehydrated) and turn them into a finely powdered form. For multiple uses, store the orange peel powder in an airtight container.

Here are some efficient natural face packs that you can make from this orange peel powder.

Face Pack 1: Orange peel and baking soda

Mix a teaspoonful of baking soda, few teaspoonfuls of orange peel powder and a teaspoonful of oatmeal together with little water in it (in a small bowl). Mix well to make a gummy paste. Use your fingers to use the paste (once it is ready) over your face and leave it there for around twenty minutes. Wash it off with cool water. Do you know that oatmeal combines the additional benefits of deep cleansing your pores? Applying this pack 3 times a week can give you acne-free and smooth skin.
