Banana peels contain vitamin C and vitamin E, and they also contain potassium, zinc, iron, and manganese. These nutrients can soothe inflamed skin and reduce acne breakouts. Additionally, banana peels contain lutein and carotenoids, which are fat-soluble compounds that help fight inflammation and acne breakouts.
