How to Lighten Your Skin
Healthy skin is more important as well as the most beautiful skin tone. Follow these steps to create a healthy glow.
Steps:
Avoid exposing your skin to direct sunlight. Use sunscreen (20 SPF +) heavily to protect your skin and help retain its tone.
Drink plenty of water regularly.
Use an organic Papaya Soap. Using it regularly will whiten your skin. Lather it to your skin for 3 minutes. It may cause dryness. If this happens, you may apply lotion after taking a bath.
Base your diet on many fruits and vegetables.
Wash your face to keep it clean.
Use some good skin whitening cream. Lemon juice with a bit of yogurt once a day is an excellent mild bleach.
Use turmeric: grind up “face turmeric” with olive oil and chickpea flour
Pour some Milk into a bowl, grab a towel dip it in the bowl and rub it generously around your face. Milk is a natural skin bleacher.
Take a vitamin supplement such as Grapeseed Extract for anti-oxidant or Fish Oil or Flaxseed Oil which contain Omega 3. It is good for the skin, hair, and nails.
Cut a lemon into 2 halves. Rub it gently on your face and neck. Wash it after 10-20 minutes. Doing it regularly will cleanse your skin and slowly start lightening it.
Exfoliate. This will get rid of the old. tanned cells and make way for new, paler cells!
Take a look at chemical bleaches. Bleaches consist of fading creams which are common and can be purchased in most drugstores, harsher prescription skin bleaches such as hydroquinone, monobenzone . Hydroquinone is the only FDA approved skin-lightening ingredient and it literally bleaches skin. Retin-a and Tri-luma both contain tretinoin which increases the rate of cell turnover thus exfoliating pooled pigment in the epidermis.
