Beat the blazing sun with simple, effective remedies straight from your kitchen. Here’s how brides-to-be can restore their natural glow without harsh chemicals.
As summer peaks, the sun can leave a lasting impression—not just in memories, but on your skin. For brides-to-be and wedding guests preparing for the big day, sun tan can dull your radiance. But worry not—nature has a cure. Here are some tried-and-tested home remedies to help you reclaim your natural glow.
- Curd and Turmeric Pack
Curd soothes sunburn and moisturises skin, while turmeric brightens and evens out the tone. Mix a tablespoon of curd with a pinch of turmeric, apply on tanned areas, leave for 15 minutes, and rinse with lukewarm water.
- Tomato Pulp Magic
Tomatoes are rich in lycopene, which reduces redness and tan. Apply fresh tomato pulp to the face and arms, let it dry, and wash it off. Use this remedy thrice a week for visible results.
- Lemon and Honey Cleanser
Lemon acts as a natural bleach, and honey moisturises the skin. Mix equal parts lemon juice and honey, apply to tanned skin, and leave for 20 minutes. Rinse with cool water. Avoid this if you have sensitive skin.
- Aloe Vera Gel Soothe
Aloe vera hydrates and repairs sun-damaged skin. Apply fresh gel before bed and leave it overnight. With regular use, it not only reduces tan but also prevents it.
- Gram Flour Scrub
Mix gram flour (besan) with milk and a few drops of rose water to create a gentle scrub. Use twice a week to exfoliate dead cells and lighten pigmentation.
