Part 2: How to Use Banana Peel for Skincare (Face Mask Method)
Your skin can benefit just as much as your internal organs! Use this part of the peel externally for glowing, hydrated skin.
Option 1: Banana Peel Rub
Take a fresh, ripe banana peel (not green, not blackened).
Rub the inner side of the peel gently over your clean face.
Let the residue sit for 15–20 minutes.
Rinse off with lukewarm water.
Repeat 2–3 times a week for best results.
Option 2: Banana Peel Pulp Face Mask
Scrape the inner side of the banana peel using a spoon.
Collect the soft white pulp.
Mix with 1 teaspoon of honey or aloe vera gel.
Apply this paste evenly across the face.
Let it sit for 15–30 minutes.
Rinse thoroughly with warm water.
Tips & Warnings
Use only fresh peels – do not store peels in the fridge.
Always do a patch test before using any banana peel remedy on the skin.
Use only the inside of the peel—avoid the outer skin.
Do not use if the banana peel has been exposed to chemicals or pesticides.
