#1. Sandalwood

Skin Care

We all know that sandalwood is just excellent when it comes to beautifying your skin. The elements in sandalwood help reducing melanin production in skin thereby lightening your skin. It also clears the marks and scars on the face.

Method:

Mix sandalwood powder with either rose or plain water. Apply the paste evenly on your face and neck area. Wash it off with normal water. This popular home remedy will diminish the dark spots and will give you a bleached skin in a couple of weeks.

#2. Rice flour and milk

Skin Care

Both rice and milk work miraculously to improve the brightness of the skin. High levels of PABA (para-aminobenzoic acid) and allantoin in rice soothe sunburns and act as a sunscreen for your skin. And milk can always give you a quick clean-up instead of heading to a salon.

#4. Orange

Skin Care

Orange is yet another commonly used product that acts as a cleaning agent and improves skin texture. Vitamin C contained in the fruit works well towards de-pigmenting the layers of skin.

Method:

Squeeze half an orange into a bowl. Add honey or multani mitti (fuller’s earth) to make a face pack. Apply it all over your face and neck. Wash off the paste after 15-20 minutes. This is one of the most workable home remedies to play safe with skin tanning or pigmentation.

#5. Honey and lemon

Skin Care

When the very smell of them is quite de-stressing, we can imagine how well the good old honey and lemon can pamper your skin. Apart from moisturising the skin, honey has skin-protecting properties that make your skin clean and blemish-free. Lemon too contains ascorbic acid that has an ability to fight off the pigments, which are responsible for skin tanning.

Method:

Mix honey and lemon, and apply it as a face mask. Leave the application for 20 minutes and then wash off with lukewarm water. Using this bleaching pack regularly will bring a visible difference in a couple of weeks.

Skin Care

This combo lightens the skin by removing excess oil and dirt from the face. Pigmentation due to exposure to the sun becomes reversible with these beauty products. The ducts help the skin get rid of deep set blemishes and impurities. Also, lycopene in tomato helps in tan reduction.
