Over the course of several centuries, women all over the world have utilized banana peel for its ability to soften the skin and prevent the aging process. When combined with cornstarch, it produces a natural mask that is soothing and can help smooth fine wrinkles, fully hydrate the face, and leave your skin radiant. This mask can be created without the use of pricey creams or damaging chemicals.
