Place sliced raw potato on the face. It helps reduce blemishes and other marks.





Applying turmeric powder along with lime juice removes the tan. Lime juice is natural bleach.





Dried orange peels mixed with curd also help reduce blemishes and scars. Wash off this mixture with cold water after 15 minutes.

Reply:Don't think about it. there are so many people wants to make the skin brown. Go to the beauty shop and look well how many products are there to make brown. but to make lighter... i don't know these kind of things exists.
Reply:At your local drug store you can find products that can whiten your skin. Try looking for products that contain safe ingredients like arbutin, licorice, Kojic acid, glycolic acid, salicylic acid, Vitamin C, azelaic acid, and retinoic acid.





Hydroquinone is said to be good, but there are rumors of cancer risks from it (In Example, it's banned in France... Kind of odd...).





Also, applying lemon juice and honey is said to help, but try not to overdue it on the lemon juice due to citric acid properties of drying skin.





Also remember to put on sun screen before you go outside!
