From walking and spending time at the beach to exploring a city, or just going to school/office/market regularly, exposes us to harmful sun rays. Whether it’s summers, monsoons or winters, if we stay outside, our skin gets tanned. Melanin production in our skin increases when our bodies are exposed to the ultraviolet rays of the sun. Pigmented cells begin to accumulate and the dead cells form a dull, dark and thick layer on the skin.
But don’t worry, we’ve put together a list of homemade anti-tan skin packs that are pocket-friendly and give your skin the care it deserves-
1. Apply tomato juice to your face and wash after 15-20 minutes. Tomatoes are rich in antioxidants and vitamin C. It will naturally lighten the skin, reduce dark spots and protect the skin from sunburn.

5. Take equal parts lemon juice and honey and add powdered milk to make a paste. Apply it on the face and wash it off with cold water after half an hour.
6. Potatoes work like a charm on tanned skin. You can cut a potato, make a paste/juice or use the potato skin for your skin. Take potato juice and add lemon juice to it. Leave it on your tanned skin for half an hour and wash it off after 10 minutes.
