How to get rid of skin tanning? {Skin Care}

Swathy · February 19, 2012 · 7 Comments

Happy Shivratri 🙂
First thing is that I had long ago done a post on what causes dark knees and elbows and how to get rid of them so I advise you to please go through it.

Diet for Fairer Complexion
I would only suggest a healthy and balanced diet which has all the possible nutritious foods according to your eating habits. Don’t overdo anything. A cleaner body means lesser skin problems.

How to remove the tan?
The basic reason for skin darkness is excess exposure to sun and the excess melanin production resulting from the exposure. So, there are some things which one can do to prevent tan and remove it.

  • Apply Zinc Oxide sunscreen to prevent tanning. And, even if you are not able to find any physical sunscreen, don’t forget to use a normal sunscreen which is good and reliable and has spf 30 or more.
  • Using Himalaya fairness face pack and Vedic Line papaya face pack really helped with removing the tanned skin. So, you should definitely check them out. I generally used the face packs on alternate days. Applying a thick mask helps.
  • Tomato and potato are great for bleaching and removing tan and bringing a glow to the face.
  • Exercise is very very important for bringing a fresh glow to the face and regular hydration of the skin from outside and inside helps the skin maintain a healthy glow and a radiant skin.
  • Always use accessories like scarf and umbrella when outside in the sun. It helped me most to prevent skin tan.
Have you any ideas on how to prevent tan?
