Nadine (@thenaturalnadine) has garnered over 121,000 followers on TikTok, where she shares health and beauty tips.
She took to the social media platform to explain the anti-aging hack that she swears by.
“You could have natural Botox sitting in your kitchen right now and not even know it,” she said.
“I know this because I’m 37 years old.
“I’ve never done Botox, filler, or any type of cosmetic procedure because I don’t want to add more toxins to my body after the black mold exposure.”
Nadine looked fresh-faced as she spoke passionately about skincare while referring to a previous video in which she revealed that she was exposed to black mold.
Her neighbor had a leaky window which allowed black mold to thrive while wrecking the health of all those who were unknowingly exposed to it.
“Botox is a neurotoxin. This is one of the best natural Botox things you can do,” she continued.

“It keeps my skin plump, tight, hydrated, moisturized and it’s doing banana peel scrubs.
“The first step is you wanna eat your banana because they’re packed with vitamin C, B6, and potassium.
“They’re antifungal, help fight off viruses, and support good gut health.
“If you’re not able to eat a banana store them in the freezer for your next smoothie, but you’re definitely gonna use that banana peel.

“Take your banana peel and start rubbing it gently all over your face.
“You’ll be hydrating your skin from the inside out from the potassium it contains.
“The vitamin B is anti-aging. The vitamin E protects your skin’s protective layer.
“And the tannins of the banana peel help reduce redness, tighten pores, and reduce inflammation.
“Let the banana peel residue sit on your face for 10 minutes, wash it off and you can do your regular skincare routine.
“It’s super easy, something you can do every day.”
Nadine reiterated the benefits of banana peel scrubs in the caption of the post while encouraging viewers to share their experience of trying the beauty hack.
“It hydrates, tightens, reduces inflammation, so inexpensive & healthy for you. Let me know how your skin feels after trying it out!” she wrote.
She claimed that skin would be noticeably softer after just one use of banana peel.
“You could do it every day if you want. Your skin will immediately feel softer after the first time,” she said.
Hundreds of people liked the video after it reached over 8,000 viewers on the app.
Those in the comment section thanked Nadine for sharing her advice and were eager for her to share more beauty tips.
An article published by Healthline seems to support Nadine’s claims while adding that banana peel may also reduce the appearance of acne scars and sunspots.
Experts advise being cautious if you have a history of sensitivities or allergies to the fruit.
