When you drink freshly squeezed orange juice or eat fragrant orange slices, you usually throw away the peel. And this is where you make your biggest mistake! Orange peel contains a large amount of vitamins C and calcium, which are responsible for fighting free radicals and rejuvenating the skin, often the peel is even healthier than this delicious orange pulp itself.
Orange peels are especially good at removing age spots because they draw out all the impurities and toxins from your skin, purify and refresh it, and then whiten all pigmented areas to give you flawless glowing skin.

!!! WARNING: Oranges that have not been organically grown may have pesticides and insecticides that may have penetrated deep into the skin. These chemicals can damage your skin as well. Thus, try to use homemade oranges whenever possible (if you live in a suitable region) in the recipes that we have suggested for you.
Tips: You can collect orange peels over a period of time and dry them by laying them out in the sun. Once you have collected the right amount, grind them into a powder and store in an airtight container. This will save you time and effort in the long run.
