Bleaching can give you chance
to find and marry a better
man. However, most drugs are
not safe. Learn the natural
remedies you can use on your
skin to lighten it safely.
Why your skin has a darker
shade?
There is only one reason for
that and it’s called melanin. It’s
a color pigment and the amount
of it in the skin determines its
color. There are things that
impact the level of it in the skin
and either darken or lighten the
color.
10 remedies to bleach your
skin naturally and safely:
These things are natural, that’s
why they are not as dangerous
as the chemicals they sell.
Surely, the effect may not be
radical, but they work. And you
should try to avoid side effects
by all means.
1. Tomatoes
These are rich in antioxidants,
vitamin C and other components.
Applying them to your skin
helps lightening its color. Plus,
mashed tomatoes are great for
treating acne and blackheads.
If you have an oily skin, do this:
Mash tomatoes and apply the
first layer of them to your skin.
Once it dries up add the second
layer and keep on doing it for
20 minutes. Then use warm
water to rinse off.
If you have a sensitive and dry
skin, add some vegetable oil to
the mix.
2. Lemon juice
It’s highly acidic and helps to
bleach the skin naturally. And
as the tomatoes do, lemon juice
cures acne. However, there are
certain precautions you should
take after using it.
Squeeze the lemon juice out of
the fruit and use a cotton wad
to apply it to your skin. Keep on
for 15 minutes and rinse off.
After the treatment avoid
being exposed to the direct
sunlight for up to two hours.
For those with dry skin add few
drops of olive oil to the juice.
3. Milk
Calcium in it helps to lighten the
color of your skin. You can use
the milk for daily skin washes.
You can also use it with the
turmeric powder to lighten the
skin. The powder would turn
your skin yellow at first, but
the color can be easily removed
with yogurt.
4. Licorice root
You can use an extract to apply
it to the well-cleaned skin
before you go to sleep. Keep it
on for the night and remove by
rinsing off in the morning.
5. Rice powder
Use uncooked rice. You can
make the powder yourself at
home. Use a coffee grinder for
this purpose. It is rich in
vitamins C and E, which is good
for your skin. Add some warm
water (or milk for dry skin) to
the powder and make a mask
for your face. Keep it on for 20
minutes. You can do such masks
up to 3 times a week.
6. Aloe Vera
Use a fresh leaf instead of the
readymade product. Just cut
the leaf open and extract the
fresh pulp out of it. Mash it and
apply to your skin. You can do a
2-week course of the masks and
apply them daily at least 2
times.
7. Honey
Just smear it onto your face
and keep on for 5 minutes, and
then wash off.
8. Almond oil
Warm it up first. Clean the skin
well and possibly apply a hot
towel to it to open up the pores.
Then smear the almond oil onto
the skin and leave on for 15
minutes. Rinse off.
9. Papaya
Mist the fruit with some lemon
juice and apply to your skin.
After 15 minutes remove.
10. Potato
It’s well-known for its bleaching
properties. Grind a peeled
potato and apply it to your skin.
Keep in on for 20 minutes and
wash off. Use some oil to mix in
for the dry skin.
As you see, these natural
remedies used for bleaching are
not harmful. They do not have
hardly any side effects. Plus,
they help to keep your skin
healthy, shining and young.
