Facemasks made out of orange peel powder have been a long-standing remedy used in many homes for uneven skin tone as it helps get rid of blackheads and dead skin cells.

Orange Peel is Rich in Vitamin C

Orange peel is a great source of vitamin C that helps your skin glow naturally and repair the collagen and elastin in your skin. This, along with anti-oxidants in the powder, helps achieve brighter and more youthful-looking skin. It protects your skin from free radical damage and keeps your skin moisturized.

Orange Peel Exfoliates and Fades Blemishes

Orange peel powder has mild exfoliating properties as it removes dead skin cells from the surface of the skin and encourages cell turnover giving you brighter skin. This further helps in unclogging pores and evens out your skin making it feel soft and smooth. The citric acid component in orange peel helps lighten the dark spots acting as a natural bleaching agent and restoring your skin’s natural complexion.
