Tanning on the face is quite common due to strong sunlight, dust and pollution. Being exposed to sunlight for a long time can affect the skin tone and make the face look dull. To remove tanning, many people resort to expensive skin care products or parlor treatments.
However, some people also use easy face packs made from things available at home. These can help in exfoliating and hydrating the skin and give the skin a fresh look. If you are also worried about tanning, then you can try these homemade face packs.
1. Face pack of milk, gram flour and turmeric
Making this face pack is quite easy. For this, take 1 spoon gram flour in a bowl and add a pinch of turmeric in it. Now add milk as per requirement and prepare a thick paste.
Apply this paste in an even layer on the face and let it dry for about 10-15 minutes. After this, clean the face gently with the help of water.
Gram flour can help remove excess oil and dirt from the skin, while milk helps soften the skin.
2. Potato and lemon face pack
For this face pack, take 1 teaspoon potato juice. Potato juice can be easily extracted by grating it. Now add about half teaspoon lemon juice to it and mix it well.
Apply the prepared mixture on the face and wash it with water after about 10-15 minutes. After this apply moisturizer on the face.
Keep in mind: Lemon can cause skin irritation or increase sensitivity, so people with sensitive skin must do a patch test before using it. Avoid going in the sun immediately after applying it.
3. Tomato and curd face pack
To prepare this face pack, take 1 teaspoon tomato pulp and add 1 teaspoon curd to it. Mix both the things well and apply it on the face.
After about 10-15 minutes, wash your face with clean water and then apply moisturizer. Yogurt can help moisturize the skin, while the nutrients present in tomatoes can be helpful in skin care.
