For Moisturizing –

1 Avocado Peel

The peel of the avocado holds a large amount of the oils from the fruit. The oil is great for moisturizing your skin, don’t throw the peel away anymore! Instead using the inside of the peel gently stroke it in an upward motion onto your face. From there you can either let it sit for 15 minutes before rinsing with warm water or for a more intense treatment leave it on overnight. Many also leave it on using it as a base before applying foundation or makeup powder.
