We all know that apples have many health benefits. But did you know that apple peels can also be put to good use in daily life? Recently, Japanese beauty and health expert Erukuchi Rinko introduced several clever uses for apple peels.
1. Boil apple peels to remove pot stains
After pots and pans have been used for a long time, black stains often stick to the bottom, which can be difficult to clean. Actually, you can first pour in some water, add the apple peels, and bring it to a boil. The organic acids in the apple peels will react chemically with the stains, making them easy to remove.
2. Apply apple peels to prevent chapped lips
Peel an apple along with a small piece of the flesh, add a little honey, and apply it to your lips. The acidic components in apples have a gentle moisturizing effect on the lips, preventing them from drying out and chapping, leaving them soft and shiny. Honey also has a great moisturizing effect. When used together, their lip-care effects are doubled, making them especially suitable for use during the dry autumn and winter seasons.
3. Wipe your body with apple peels to relieve fatigue
When taking a bath at night, you can wrap the apple peels in gauze or put them in a mesh bag and place them in the bathtub. Alternatively, you can simply use the apple peels to wipe your skin. The polyphenols rich in apple peels can beautify the skin. Furthermore, apples belong to the Rosaceae family, and the pleasant aroma they release can relax the body and mind, eliminating fatigue and stress.
