Our homes
are actually rich with a lot of ingredients that we can use to concoct various
home remedies for facial dark spots. There is no need for an expensive trip to
your dermatologist if you knew which items in your home can help rid of age
spots, black circles under the eyes, acne scars, freckles, and other such
spots. Moreover, use of these home remedies helps avoid putting harsh chemicals
on your face, which is one of the most sensitive parts of your body. So here is
a rundown on some of these helpful items.
Citrus Fruits
Citruses
like oranges, lemons, and limes are rich in Vitamin C which is a natural
bleaching agent. Of all citrus fruits, however, lemon is considered as one of
the most effective home remedies for facial dark spots, especially for freckles
and age spots. Simply apply some lemon juice directly on the spot, either with
your hands or using a dab of cotton. The citric acid in the juice would work to
bleach the spot and clarify your skin.
Lemon Concoctions
Aside from
using it as it is, lemon juice may also be used as an ingredient for various
home remedies for facial dark spots. You can add some lemon or lime juice in
various vegetable and fruit masks such as cucumber.
Milk and
honey
Milk and
honey also make for good natural remedies for treating dark facial spots. Like
lemon, you can use these two as they are or with other ingredients. For milk,
you can use either sour milk or buttermilk which both contain lactic acid. This
acid in milk has a gentle peeling effect which lightens skin without irritating
it. Honey, on the other hand, as several skin renewing properties. It may be
heated and applied alone or mixed with wheat germ for a more lightening effect.

has been helpful to you all and until next time GBF………
