You have to apply some home treatment before start to use any product.
• An effective home remedy to cure the problem of dark skin would be to mix 1 tsp of milk powder, 1 tsp of honey, 1 tsp of lemon juice and ½ tsp of almond oil. Make a paste and apply this on the face. Apart from removing the tan, it would also make the skin shine.
• Take some oatmeal along with curd and tomato juice. Apply this mixture on the face and keep it for about 20 minutes. Wash your face with cold water.
• Potato acts as a very good bleaching agent. Slice a potato and keep them over the face. This would lighten the marks.
• Take a little turmeric powder and add a few drops of lime juice. Apply this on the darkened area. This would help to reduce tan effectively.
If it not works effectively then you can use skin brightener product. It helps to make your skin brighter.
