* Taning : How To Avoid n Repair *


Dip some cotton in raw milk and gently apply on the skin.Wait till it dry.Apply again.Repeat 3-4 times.
Clean the skin.Mix honey and lemon in equal amounts and apply.Leave for 10-15 minutes.
Use sunglasses.Polaroid will serve the best....
Use sunscreen that has a higher SPF (Sun Protection Factor). More the SPF,better it is.
Never apply a sunscreen directly on the skin.Apply a moisturiser as a base coat. Then apply the sunscreen to all the areas which will be exposed to the sun.The top layer should always be ur suncreen.
You should always remember to apply the sunscreen before 20-30 mins you go out.
If you are staying for a longer period outdoors, apply suncreen for every 3 hours.
Cover ur skin with a scarf/hat/umbrella.
Before going out in the sun, take a mixture of ice water and milk and apply on your face. Keep it for 10-15 mins and wash off.
After every outing, remember to exfoliate your skin with a good scrub.
One of the readily available products at home-Curd. You can just use plain curd or mix 1 cup curd with 2 tsp of lemon juice and make a pack with besan powder added to it.Apply and wash off with cold water.
If your face is already tanned, lemon or orange is the best natural bleach. Apply the juice on the affected area and surely you can see your skin lighten.
Mix yougurt and orange juice in equal amounts and applly.Was off after 15 minutes.
Potato pack : Find small to medium sized potatoes. Peel away the skin and make a paste of the .The paste you get might be watery. Don’t try to filter the water out. Use the paste as such. Apply generously all over the arms and face. Let it dry (I hate the raw smell – but the result is worthy enough). Allow it to dry well and then wash it off with plain cold water.
Cucumber juice or pulp is the best for tanned skin. Apply it to the skin and gently massage in circular rings. Leave on till dry.Wash off.
For dry and sensitive skin, you can mix milk and lemon juice and apply on your face.
