A sun tan is a natural result of spending too much time in the sun. For people who have very white skin, or very sensitive skin, the chances of getting sunburnt are higher. The proneness to tanning is also higher in Caucasians, and in men and women who have very fair skin. If you are experiencing rashes and itching on your skin, it is probably because of sun burn. However, if you have used a self-tanner, you probably do not have a sun burn. A simple home remedy for sun tan can help you deal with the symptoms of sun tan.

One of the best home remedies for a sun tan is to avoid the sun. If you have to go into the sun, try and use some sun block before you venture out. This prevents further tanning of the skin. Since overexposure to ultra violet rays is the primary cause of tanning, avoiding sun exposure is the perfect way to treat it. As your time passes, you can exfoliate the old tanned and dead skin to reveal healthy fairer skin underneath. With regular exfoliation, you should get rid of the tan in a few weeks. However, if you need to get rid of sun tan more quickly, you may have to use other home remedies which would provide with quick results.

How to treat a sun tan?

There are many tan removal home remedies to offer you quick results. If you have a mildly tanned skin, you can use potato peels in the affected area to get rid of it. Simply rub the peels on the affected areas for some time. Repeat this twice every day, and in a week you will see a remarkable difference in the tan. If the tan is more severe, do not use potato peels, but raw potato slices instead. Potato juice is the fastest method of relief from sun tan.

Another one of the best tan removal home remedies is to use a mixture of lemon juice, glycerin, and sugar. Mix these together till they are a homogenous mixture and apply them on your tanned skin. Soak a ball of cotton into the solution and gently rub it on your skin in circular motions. This not only helps you remove dead skin, but also lightens the tanned skin naturally. If you have dry and sensitive skin, this is the ideal home remedy for you.

If you are looking to remove sun tan naturally, use natural bleaching agents to remedy it. A mix of lemon juice and potato juice is a great treatment for sun tan. This helps you remove sun tan naturally, while also improving skin texture. Since lemon juice is rich in antioxidants, it is a great remedy for dry and rough skin as well. You can use this treatment for sun tan twice a day till you notice the change in your skin tone.

How do I get rid of sun tan?

The effects of sun tanning are usually only temporary, so if you wait long enough, you will get rid of the tan without having to use any kind of treatment method. However, if this is not something that you can wait for, you can use remedies to minimize the effects of sun tanning. The first thing would be to prevent sun exposure by wearing proper sun protection. If you wear a lot of makeup, use a sunscreen as a base and work your way up. There are lipsticks and foundations that come with SPF these days, so always use the ones which give you adequate protection.

If your skin is tanned anyway, use a mixture of raw milk and cucumber juice on your face every day. The astringent properties of this mixture will not only cool your skin, but will also help speed up the regrowth of skin, therefore eliminating your tan in a more speedy fashion. You may also use a mixture of raw mix and turmeric powder on the affected skin. Turmeric powder not only helps bleach your skin, but is also an antiseptic and can help treat any skin infections, rashes or allergies that you may have.

Alternatively, you can turn to home remedies for sun tanning. The fresh gel from aloe vera leaves is one of the best home remedies for sun tanning. Simply pluck a leaf from the aloe vera plant and take the fresh gel from it. Apply it all over the affected areas of your skin and leave it for some time. Once it has dried up, you can remove the aloe vera by washing it off with cold water.

Another great home remedy for a suntan is olive oil. Take some olive oil between your palms and rub it on your face and other affected areas.

Soak a piece of cotton in it and apply all over your face. This will help you deal with the sun tanned skin.
