Face darker than the rest of my body?

Re: Face darker than the rest of my body?

My face is much darker than the rest of my body, probably because of exposure to the sun. Is there any home remedy I can use to gradually lighten my face so that I get back my original colour and so that it gets evened out?

Your best bet is to start using a good sunscreen anytime you go outside and also get 40% lactic acid peels and start doing that once every two weeks.

I don’t know if this works or not but a friend of mine swears by this and she’s very fair - as in her whole body including her face is fair. She uses milk - cold milk and puts it in a bowl - wets a cotton pad and applies it on her face and then washes it after 10 minutes. I tried to do it but then got lazy..

If your friend is only putting the milk only on her face…then that doesn’t explain why her whole body is fair too. But yes, the concept works b/c of the lactic acid. Applying milk will eventually have a bit of a lightening effect too. But anyone doing a lactic acid peel will get the results faster.
