When I first heard someone call banana “nature’s Botox” I was completely bewildered. There’s no way eating a banana can help fight wrinkles, I thought.
I later discovered I was somewhat right: using banana as a primary ingredient in a face mask can help to prevent premature wrinkles and fight fine lines. Who knew?
As skincare is incredibly important to me, I enjoy pampering myself with an occasional trip to the spa for a facial, but my day-to-day routine is equally gratifying. Lately I’m discovering the many beauty benefits of simple food items I have in my kitchen, such as yogurt, oats and honey.
With the change in weather, now is the perfect time to consider updating your skincare routine. So today I’m sharing a few ingredients for you to consider adding to your next homemade face mask, as well as their respective beauty benefits for your skin!
