Brilio.net - Skin moisture is an important factor in achieving healthy skin. This is because the level of hydration in the skin is related to the skin's ability to form a strong skin barrier. Therefore, this moisture factor is one of the key steps to achieving skin that is free from annoying problems.
On the other hand, skin that is not properly hydrated can gradually trigger various skin problems. One of them is dry skin. Dry skin is a condition where the skin loses its ability to condition its natural moisture due to the minimal amount of water and natural skin oils. This problem is generally caused by sharp temperature effects such as exposure to sunlight or piercing cold winds which can cause the moisture to evaporate from the skin.
Well, dry skin that is not treated properly can develop and give the impression of scaly skin. This condition occurs when the dead skin layer cannot peel off properly due to lack of moisture and the regeneration process is disrupted. As a result, the layers of dead skin accumulate and form scales that look rough and unhealthy. Apart from causing itching and irritation, the appearance of the skin will also look bad because of it.
From the explanation above, it is clear how important it is to maintain skin moisture? So, for that, you can rely on natural ingredients as an alternative solution for those of you who experience the problems above. One way is to use a mixture of honey and orange peel. @_mymakeupoftea demonstrated how to make it via Instagram, reported by briliobeauty.net on Sunday (4/2).

Honey has long been used as a natural ingredient for many types of skin care. Summarized from Style Craze, the glucose and fructose content in honey can help provide deep nutrition, so it will maintain skin moisture. The antioxidant content in honey can also minimize potential damage and increase skin elasticity, so it is free from dryness and irritation.

Similar to the flesh of the fruit, orange peel is also rich in vitamin C (ascorbic acid) and citric acid. The vitamin C component actively helps stimulate collagen production in the skin, which in the process will make the skin feel more moisturized and smoother. Meanwhile, citric acid plays a role in helping the natural exfoliation process, so it effectively reduces the appearance of rough skin and stimulates better skin regeneration.
So, you can use the two ingredients above by following these instructions.
Tools and materials:
1. 1 teaspoon orange peel powder
2. 1 teaspoon pure honey
3. Small container
