Few facts about bananas

Bananas are rich in vitamin A, B, C, and minerals, such as iron, zinc and potassium. They are also rich in amino acids and antioxidants that provide nutrients to the skin and hair. 

1. Dry skin moisturizer

2. Oily skin

Get rid of oily skin by making a mask with banana and two teaspoons of lemon juice.
The acid from the lemon will reduce greasiness, while vitamin C from bananas will control it's future production.

3. Anti wrinkle
