Many people work hard to achieve fair and flawless skin. The market is flooded with skin-lightening creams and lotions. But such products have harmful chemicals that can ultimately damage your skin. Oftentimes the products are expensive, too.
You can save yourself some time and money by using natural remedies that will effectively brighten and lighten your skin complexion.
1. Yogurt
Yogurt, a by-product of milk, has many nutrients that are good for the skin. It also contains lactic acid that has bleaching properties. The following remedies are suitable for all skin types.
Gently rub plain yogurt onto your skin. Leave it on for a few minutes and then wash it off with lukewarm water. Do this once daily for several weeks to notice a significant change in your complexion.
Alternatively, mix one tablespoon of fresh yogurt with one-half tablespoon of honey. Apply the mixture on your face and neck. Leave it on for 10 to 15 minutes and then wash it off with water. Do this daily to improve your skin tone and complexion.
You can also add a little lemon juice and some oatmeal to yogurt to make a thick paste, and apply it as a face mask. This remedy will also help keep your skin supple and moisturized.
2. Oranges
The most important ingredient in skin care is vitamin C, which you can get in abundance from oranges. Plus, oranges have bleaching properties that can lighten your skin tone.
It has been found that regular consumption of fresh orange juice can greatly improve the overall texture of your skin as well as its suppleness. To lighten your skin, oranges can be used in two different ways.
Make a paste by combining two tablespoons of orange juice and a pinch of powdered turmeric. Apply the paste on your face and neck before going to bed. You can also apply it on your hands and legs. Wash it off the next morning. Do this daily.
Grind dried orange peels into powder. Mix one tablespoon of the powdered peels with one tablespoon of plain yogurt to make a paste. Apply the paste on your skin and leave it on for 15 to 20 minutes. Rinse it off with water. This will help lighten spots and other marks on your face. Do this once or twice a week, but no more than that.
3. Gram Flour
Gram flour is one of the best ingredients for people who wish to lighten their skin complexion. It contains various nutrients that help keep your skin very healthy. Using the remedy below every other day will help remove excess oil from your skin while retaining your skin’s natural moisture.
Mix some gram flour with a small amount of water or rose water to make a thick paste.
Apply it on your face, hands, and legs.
Leave it on until the paste dries. Then wash it off with water.

ReplyDeleteLadies!!! lets calm down and No the blog was not hacked! lol. Many things can actually cause the skin to go very dark, Stress, sun exposure, raging hormones, pregnancy, even allergic reactions. Usually this hyper pigmentation is restricted to the face alone, so we have very dark facial skin while the rest of the body is fairer. if you feel uncomfortable with it, this post is for you! Ruddiness is also a factor that many women do not want, rashes and general dull skin. When your skin glows and you dont have to load on the foundation 24/7, you actually look nicer, in my Opinion..... Try one of the many Natural remedies, remember to store leftovers in the refridgerator. I particularly like to exfoliate my skin with white sugar and Papaya fruit. I follow this with aTomatoe rub, which i cut in half and rub all over my face. Amazing results i tell you. Have fun making these pastes and watch your skin glow and dark spots fade nicely. Finally Drink loads of water. Not easy to do, but make the effort. Godspeed!!
ReplyDeleteThank you so much Banke.
