Banana Peel Acne Treatment- Seriously AMAZING

I want to share with you something amazing- a way to significantly heal acne! May I present... The banana peel method! If you peel a banana and use small squares of the peel on your skin, it works wonders. I've used this technique a couple times, and let me just say this- one day my skin had (basically) a hole in it from where I picked off a bad scab, and after one treatment with the banana peel, my skin had already started healing together by that night. It was still red and scabbing mind you, but my skin had already started to heal up the layers of skin. In fact, one of the layers had already healed and dried up by that night. Honestly, banana peels are skin miracle workers.
 
If you have some acne that you would like to disappear over the course of a few days, then just follow these instructions--
 
Peel a banana and cut up the peel into squares-- I usually end up with three long strips of banana peel, then I can cut those up into about four pieces each.
 
Take the squares and rub them onto your (clean, lotion free) skin where you want the acne to go away. Keep rubbing until the peel is turning brown, or you see the brown residue starting to show up on your skin.
 
Once you have completed the rubbing, then let the banana residue stay on your skin for 15-20 minutes. (The longer the better!) Then you can rinse your face off.
 
This is one treatment. I usually do two treatments a day- once in the morning, and once at night. If you want, you can do it again in the middle of the day, but from my experience, twice a day is enough. Now everyone, get ready for amazing skin!

Skin Food Facial Srub

Hi everyone!
 
Today I tried this new facial scrub that I picked up a while ago. I have a tendency to buy things, and then wait for a while before I actually use them, especially with things that take time to use. I got this facial scrub from a place at the mall called Skin Food. It's a Korean brand, so if you look on the bottles of the products there, the writing is in Korean. But since they distribute to the US, there is a sticker on the bottle that gives you the information in English, so that's nice!
 
For this scrub, you just squeeze some of it out of the bottle, and apply it to your face in circular motions until you feel this gritty stuff in your hands. That is the exfoliation at work! I did feel some of that when I was using the scrub.
 
Just like with any scrub or mask that I've tried, there were no immediate effects. But this scrub did feel good, and I'm planning on using it about once or twice a week, to see if there is any change in my skin.

 
I'll be sure to let you know if I see any changes- good or bad.
