What’s In It?

Orange peels contains Vitamins A, B (Niacin, Folate), C and polyphenols, minerals like calcium, and magnesium too.

Polyphenols have anti-oxidant and anti-inflammatory benefits. They help protect the skin against UV damage caused by the harmful rays of the sun.

This does help keep the signs of ageing like spots, fine lines and wrinkles at bay and thus keeps your skin youthful and radiant.

Orange peels help cleanse, exfoliate, moisturise and brighten your skin.

Orange Peel Powder And Burning Sensation

Due to the presence of acids in the peels, we do feel a burning sensation on our skin, especially on the upper lip area. And, That is totally normal.

It usually fades away in a minute or two and should not cause redness or teary eyes.

If that happens(especially for sensitive skin), reduce the amount of orange peel powder in your recipe to 1/4th of a teaspoon and then, try again.

Do not use orange peel powder if you feel a stinging or pin and needle sensation on your skin. Wash off the mask immediately. And follow up with aloe Vera gel.
