Peelings are more like the remnants and not the actual action: there are skin peelings all over the floor.

Like reign says, peelings refers to the result of peeling - the little bits of peel. But normally if you use the peelings for something then you'd still use some form of "peel" - e.g. candied orange peel
As far as the plural form of peel, it's peels. For example:
It's interesting how different the peels look on these two oranges. Are they the same variety?
Can you believe this recipe calls for the peels of two kumquats? (What a pain - who peels a kumquat, anyway?)
