The proverb "An apple a day keeps the doctor away" is well-known. Besides being eaten, apples can be quite useful in daily life. Recently, Asian beauty and health expert Ikuko introduced several clever uses for apple peels.
Apple peels for lip balm to prevent chapping.
Peel the apple with a small piece of flesh, add a little honey, and apply it to your lips. The acidic components in the apple have a mild moisturizing effect on the lips, preventing dryness and chapping and making them shiny and smooth. Honey also has a great moisturizing effect. Together, they double the lip care benefits, especially suitable for use in the dry autumn and winter.
Apple peels to relieve fatigue by rubbing on the body.
When bathing 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 rub the apple peels directly on your skin. The polyphenols rich in apple peels can achieve a beautifying effect for the skin. Furthermore, apples belong to the Rosaceae family, and their fragrant aroma has a relaxing effect on the body and mind, helping to eliminate fatigue and stress.
Apple peels boiled water to remove pot stains.
After pots and pans have been used for a long time, a black, sticky layer of stains often adheres to the bottom, which can be quite difficult to remove. Actually, you can first pour in some water, add the apple peels, and bring it to a boil. The chemical reaction between the organic acids in the apple peels and the stains can easily remove them.
