Although everyone should embrace their natural skin tone, if you’ve noticed your skin darkening due to time in the sun or age spots, you may want to lighten it.No matter what color skin you have, it will look its best when it’s clean and moisturized. However, if you would still like to brighten your skin a little,there a few natural remedies you can try at home. Exfoliate your skin 1-2 times a week.
Exfoliating means gently scrubbing your skin to remove dead skin cells. You can do this with a dry exfoliating brush, a damp washcloth, or a salt or sugar body scrub.Since the skin on your face is very delicate,
only use exfoliating tools and products specifically designed for use on the face. Body exfoliating products will typically be too harsh.Keep in mind that exfoliation only helps
if your current skin is darker than your normal skin tone, because it reveals fresh skin that is untouched by the sun.To make your own facial scrub, try adding a teaspoon of ground almonds or oatmeal to your regular cleanser.
