Fair Skin Remedies

You can definitely improve your skin color as well as your skin tone through various fairer skin home treatments. However, keep in mind that there is a limit to how much you can lighten your skin color. The most important thing to remember is that no matter what color your skin is, clean and clear skin is always more attractive.




You cannot actually change your skin color permanently except with extremely expensive and potentially dangerous treatments. Many of these treatments can actually cause premature wrinkles and can make the skin look thick and leathery. However, every time your skin is exposed to sunlight it darkens. This tanning can last for a long time even after you are no longer in the sun. You can get rid of this tan quite easily by following a few fairer skin home treatments.

Lemon juice is a natural bleach and so it will help to eliminate any tanning. You can mix lemon juice with an equal amount of cucumber juice and apply this liquid to tanned skin. If you have oily skin, you can soak a cotton ball in this mixture and gently massage your skin with this liquid. Leave it on until it dries completely and then rinse it off with cold water. Do not go out into the sun if you have lemon juice on your skin as direct sunlight will react with the lemon juice and can actually cause your skin to darken.

Wash a raw unpeeled potato and chop it into small pieces. Blend the potato and squeeze out the juice. Potato has natural bleaching qualities too and so you can apply the juice to your tanned skin. Add a teaspoon of honey to this remedy to increase its effectiveness.

Mix a spoon of lightly cooked crushed oats with a spoon of yogurt and honey and use this as a facial and body scrub. It would be best to use this remedy after a warm shower. Use the scrub and then rinse yourself off with cold water.  

Soak a handful of almonds in a bowl of water overnight. Grind the almonds into a thin paste and add a few spoons of sandalwood powder to it. Mix this paste thoroughly and use it as a face and body mask to get a glowing complexion.

It is very important to follow this fairness skin care regimen regularly. This will ensure that your skin is clean and tan-free.
