Many women have succumbed to the pressure to bleach their skin because of the pressure of society. The media being the key player of this belief has made many people use extremely harmful creams and chemicals to make themselves ‘light skinned’.

It’s not a good thing to want to change natural things it always comes with a price to pay. So let me show you a lesser price to pay instead of ruining your skin with the many uncouth ways. I say lesser because this ones come with commitment.

Here are some:

1. Potato Bleaching Pack

Potato is a natural bleaching agent and effectively removes tanning caused due to exposure to the sun.

1. Peel the skin of a potato and grate it.
2. Add some rose water and make a paste in a blender.
3. If you have extremely dry skin, you can add honey to the blend. In case of oily skin, replace honey with lemon juice.
4. Apply it on the face and on exposed areas such as neck and hands to get even toned skin.
5. Let it dry and wash off with water.
6. Potato bleaches the skin mildly. With regular use, your skin lightens, and even the dark spots are reduced.

2. Tomato Pack For Toning And Fairness

Tomato is an acidic fruit rich in vitamin C. The vitamin is very good for your skin.

1. Take a ripe tomato and mash it.
2. Sieve it using a strainer to sluice out the seeds.
3. Add a teaspoon of curd and mix it well.
4. Apply this pack on the face evenly and let it dry.
5. Use lukewarm water to wash off the pack and pat the skin dry.
6. Regular use of this pack lightens the scars and spots and gives an even tone to the skin.

3. Bleach It With Cucumber

1. Take a cucumber and peel it.
2. Grate the peeled cucumber and squeeze the juice out of it.
3. Add some natural Aloe Vera juice to the cucumber juice and apply the pack on your face, neck and back.
4. Apart from lightening the skin color, it also acts as a coolant and soothes the skin during the summer season.

4. Orange Peel Face Pack

Just like orange, its peel is also rich in vitamin C and is extremely effective as a bleaching agent.

1. Dry the orange peel under the sun and grind it into powder.
2. Add some honey and rosewater to the orange peel powder and apply this pack evenly on the face.
3. After it has dried. wash off with plain water.

5. Natural Bleaching Agent – Lemon Juice

Lemon is rich in vitamin C and is known to be the best natural bleaching agent. It starts showing results immediately after the first use.

1. Squeeze a lemon and apply its juice directly on the skin.
2. You can also add honey, curd or glycerine to reduce the acidic level of the juice.
3. For better results, use this pack once a week.
4. Avoid applying the pack near the eye area and do not go into the sunlight immediately after washing or applying the pack.
5. Use a good moisturizing sunscreen to nourish your skin as the acidic content in lemon can sometimes make your skin dry.
