Why This Recipe Works
1. Banana – Nature’s Anti-Aging Fruit
Rich in potassium, vitamin A, and antioxidants, bananas hydrate the skin and promote collagen production, which helps to reduce wrinkles.
2. Honey – A Natural Moisturizer
Honey is a powerful humectant that locks in moisture, keeping your skin supple and radiant.
3. Yogurt – Exfoliates and Brightens
Yogurt contains lactic acid, which gently exfoliates dead skin cells, leaving your skin smoother and brighter.
4. Olive Oil – Deeply Nourishes
Packed with vitamins and healthy fats, olive oil penetrates deep into the skin, providing essential hydration and elasticity.
5. Vitamin E – Fights Free Radicals
Vitamin E oil is known for its ability to neutralize free radicals and slow the signs of aging.
