Home remedies for even skin tone

Atleast 5 in 10 people will be facing this uneven skin tone problem. This makes you look dull, older, tired and unhealthy.

Instead of using commercial products to get rid of uneven skin tone, herewith I will be providing you some remedies with products from you own kitchen.

Tomato:
Tomato is very good for body. It is not necessary to eat tomato to get its benefits.
Cut the tomato into two halves and rub it on your face and body. It removes tan on the skin.


Oatmeal:
Oatmeal acts a cleanser, mild scrub. Take some finely ground oatmeal and combine with water. Wash your face with this mixture. You feel the difference immediately. Your skin will be super smooth.
You can mix oatmeal with yogurt and use it as a skin brightening mask. Yogurt will have lactic acid which helps in removing dead cells and brighten the complexion.


Honey and Lemon:
Especially for those who have dry skin, honey works wonders. It has powerful anti-bacterial properties on at least sixty species of bacteria, and unlike antibiotics, which are often useless against certain types of bacteria. Honey is non-toxic and has strong effects. Mix honey with lemon and apply evenly on the face and neck. Keep it for 10mins and rinse. Skin will be mositured and glowing.

Lemon:
Combine a few drops of lemon juice to equal parts distilled water in a clean bottle.
Shake well and apply with a cotton pad and leave the toner to dry on the skin. Lemon juice contains citric acid which helps as a bleaching agent and minimizes pores.
You can add chickpea flour, curd and turmeric to lemon, use this as a pack. This is an age old recipe for glowing skin.


Banana:
Take a ripe banana and mash it with a spoon and apply it on face. Leave it on for 10mins and wash. It gives instant glow. Banana tightens the skin.

Last but not least wash your face twice a day. Remove all traces of your makeup before sleeping.
Drink atleast 8 to 10 glasses of water. Add more fruits and veggies to your menu.
It is always better to use hot water splash before face wash so that pores will be opened and the cleansing can be done more effectively.
The last splash of water during face wash should be with cold water so that the pores will be closed.
Apply sunscreen 20minutes before going out in sun.

I started following these and I am happy to say that I feel the difference.

Thanks for your time...
