So can winter melon be applied directly on the face?

1. Can winter melon be applied directly to the face?

Winter melon can be used for facial mask. Winter melon is a very nutritious vegetable, and it also has excellent beauty and skin care effects.

Winter melon seeds contain fatty oleic acid, citrulline and other ingredients, which have the effect of lightening spots. Peach kernels are rich in vitamin E and vitamin B6, which not only help the skin resist oxidation but also reduce the damage of ultraviolet rays. The moisturizing effect of honey makes the mask more effective.
