Natural Ways To Lighten Your Skin by cnnnigeria: 3:37pm On May 07, 2009 |
Dark spots, and freckles, and skin-damage - oh my! Looking to lighten your complexion? Every shade of skin is beautiful, but as we grow older our skin tone can change. Freckles may appear, dark spots can arise, and skin may not be as light as it once was. So, if you're still not ready to embrace your dark side, read on for a few natural whitening tips and tricks. Use Sunblock One of the easiest ways to stay fair is to use sunblock on a daily basis. Find a moisturizer that includes an SPF of 15 or higher and use it every morning after washing your face. Sunblock not only prevents your skin from getting darker, but also blocks harmful UV rays that can cause cancer and premature aging. Remember your hands when applying sunblock, as they are a prime area for age spots. Exfoliate Exfoliating once a week will remove dead skin cells to lighten and brighten your skin. Mix two tablespoons oatmeal and two tablespoons brown sugar with a quarter cup of milk, and stir until a paste forms. Gently scrub your face, rinse, and moisturize. Make a Mask A homemade mask is a great way to lighten your skin and a good excuse to kick back on the couch. Try using one once a week. Use one tablespoon of each of the following: sandalwood paste, lemon juice, tomato juice, and cucumber juice. Mix them all together to form a paste. Spread the mixture on your face and wait until it dries. Rinse and moisturize for a natural glow. Licorice Extract Licorice extract contains glabridin, a component that acts as a natural skin whitener. Apply a thin layer of the extract morning and evening, after you wash your face and before you moisturize. Licorice extract can be found at any health food store or ordered online. Be sure to store the bottle in a cool, dark place to maintain freshness. Note: test a small amount on the back of your arm before using on your face to be sure you do not have an allergic reaction. Remember to love your skin no matter what color it is. It's a part of who you are and that's what makes you beautiful and unique. http://beautyhygiene..com 1 Like |

Maybe a stupid question, but Why would one want to lighten their skin? |
Re: Natural Ways To Lighten Your Skin by Sissy3(f): 8:18am On May 09, 2009 |

bee22: You can try mixing freshly sqeezed lime juice with cinnamon powder. Apply to a clean face then let it dry before rinsing off with warm water and then rinse again with cold. You can do this twice a week. Don't forget to always use sunblock when you go out. Soemthing with SPF 50. |
