Complexion of the skin is affected by several factors including hereditary factors, skin disorders or excessive exposure to sunlight. The dark complexion of the skin is indicative of high levels of the melanin pigment in the skin, which is responsible for protecting the skin against harmful effects of ultra violet rays. If the skin is naturally dark, there is very little that can be done to change the color, however if it has been tanned due to persistent exposure to sunlight, some of the following tips will come to your rescue:
- Mix honey, one teaspoon of lemon and a few drops of almond oil in milk or milk powder.Apply this paste locally on your face. This mixture will help you regain a natural glow. Practice this therapy about twice a week for a few months to get potential benefits.
