Prepare the Ingredients: Scrape the inner white flesh from clean banana peels (organic if possible). Grate the raw potato finely and squeeze out the juice using a cheesecloth or clean towel to get about 3-4 tablespoons of potato juice (you can include some pulp for thickness).
Blend: In a blender or food processor, combine the banana peel scrapings, potato juice/pulp, and honey. Blend until you get a smooth, creamy paste. Add yogurt or milk if you want a richer consistency.
Optional Boost: Stir in a few drops of lemon juice for enhanced brightening.
Store: Transfer to a clean glass jar and refrigerate. It should stay fresh for up to 1-2 weeks.
How to Use
Cleanse your face first.
Apply a thin layer of the cream to your face and neck, gently massaging in upward motions.
Leave on for 15-20 minutes (or overnight for deeper treatment if your skin tolerates it).
Rinse with lukewarm water and follow with your favorite moisturizer.
Use 2-3 times a week for best results. Always patch test on your inner arm first to check for irritation.
