Beauty from bell peppers is hard to believe for many people, but in fact, the spiciness in peppers is extremely good for skin care.
Bell peppers are not as spicy as Vietnamese peppers, and come in 3 main colors: green, yellow, and red. According to research, bell peppers contain 2.5 times more vitamin C than oranges. In addition, bell peppers also contain a rich source of vitamin A, which is very good for the body. Let’s take a look at the wonderful skin beautifying uses of peppers below.
1. Chili mask for dry skin
For girls with dry skin, bell pepper mask is a great way to provide moisture, nourish the skin and make the skin smoother and brighter. In addition, this mask also helps stimulate blood circulation, produce collagen to nourish the skin from deep within. Apply regularly about 2-3 times a week for best results.
How to do: Puree a green bell pepper and then apply on the face for about 15 minutes, wash the face with warm water and then rinse with cold water.
2. Weight loss

In addition, the spicy ingredients in chili peppers also help increase the body’s metabolic rate, creating a feeling of fullness, thereby limiting cravings and helping to lose weight effectively. When the body absorbs chili peppers, the brain increases activity to help promote the activity of the nervous system, from which the kidneys secrete fluids. Fluids will have the effect of burning fat, so eating chili peppers is very good for losing weight.
3. Eating chili helps prevent aging
Bell peppers are sweeter than Vietnamese peppers, helping to smooth the skin and prevent aging very well. Red peppers contain more vitamin C than the other two types of peppers, so they have anti-wrinkle effects, and contain beta-carotene, which helps fight free radicals and effectively repel signs of aging.
Meanwhile, yellow and green peppers, although not as rich in vitamin C, are also very effective in producing collagen and nourishing the skin to be visibly whiter and smoother after only a short time.
4. Chili helps reduce melasma and freckles
