Hi, I'm Farrah, and I love browsing through DIY pins on Pinterest. The weirder, the better. When I came across beauty hacks using a banana, I thought these pins were ACTUALLY bananas. So of course I had to try them to see if they worked.
Here are the results:
This hack blends honey and mashed bananas for a facial mask that's supposed to make your skin brighter.
If you're wondering, wow that picture looks like baby food... it does. And it also SMELLS like baby food, too. But it's technically an ~organic~ mask and I'm a sucker for anything that'll supposedly help my skin, so slathered it all up on my face.
Here are the results:
This hack is supposed to easily whiten your teeth without chemicals.
According to the pin, rub your pearly whites using a banana peel every day for roughly a week to see results. This is by far the most bizarre hack I've heard of for brightening teeth (aside from rubbing jet black charcoal on them, I suppose) but I was down to give it the ole try.
Here are the results:
This hack promises to fade bruises faster if you hold the peel over the bruise.
Sometimes I see something as weird as this and think... this person truly just wants to fuck with the internet. But since it IS such an odd hack, I knew I had to try it.
Here are the results:
This hack uses a banana, coconut oil, and honey to create a deep conditioning treatment.
Another pin that's now deleted said to also use coconut milk, so I used all four ingredients when whipping up this hair mask. I had high hopes because the blend DOES look like a really thick conditioner and smells pretty incredible.
