Get Your Skin Tan Free With These Homemade Anti Tan Creams

While a suntanned look is favored in Western countries, it’s considered unattractive in Eastern countries. Moreover, the harmful ultraviolet rays of the sun damage your skin. There is no such thing as a “healthy tan”. The good news is that a suntan tends to fade over time.

Applying an anti-tan face mask also helps fade a summer tan fast. Plus, it helps remove dark spots and blemishes and add a radiant glow to your skin. You can prepare your anti-tan face mask with skin-lightening ingredients like aloe vera gel, gram flour (also called chickpea flour or besan), tomato, yogurt, lemon juice, cucumber juice and rose water. Also, as prevention is always better than the cure, avoid sun exposure, especially during the peak hours of the day.
