If your hands get tanned due to sun, then you will get relief from these home remedies, try them once.

The scorching heat of summer not only scorches our skin but also leaves a stubborn black layer on the hands. Often we take care of the face, but ignore the hands, due to which the face and hands start appearing of different colors. In such a situation, to overcome the problem of tanning, people spend money on expensive ‘de-tan’ treatment in parlors. But perhaps you do not know that you can get rid of tanning of hands by adopting some easy home remedies.

1. Mixture of gram flour, turmeric and curd

This age-old recipe is considered the best for removing tanning. Gram flour exfoliates the skin, lactic acid present in curd removes tanning and turmeric acts as an anti-septic. For this, mix a pinch of turmeric and 1 spoon curd in 2 spoons of gram flour. Apply this paste on hands and leave it for 20 minutes. After it dries, clean it by rubbing it gently. Use it twice a week.

2. Combination of lemon and honey
Lemon is a natural bleaching agent that is rich in Vitamin C, which helps in skin whitening. Honey keeps the skin hydrated so that lemon does not dry out the skin. For this, mix one spoon honey in the juice of one lemon. Apply it on your hands and wash it with lukewarm water after 15-20 minutes.

3. Papaya and honey mask
Papaya contains an enzyme called ‘papain’, which is expert in removing dead skin cells and reducing pigmentation. Mash a piece of ripe papaya and add some honey to it. Apply this mask on the tanning area. Wash with cold water after 30 minutes. This will not only make your hands clean but will also become extremely soft.

4. Tomato Juice and Curd
Tomatoes contain lycopene and acidic properties that help repair the damage caused by the sun’s UV rays. Prepare a paste by mixing some curd in tomato pulp. Apply it on hands and leave it for 15 minutes. It is a panacea for lightening stubborn tanning.

5. Aloe Vera Gel and Lentils
If your skin is sunburned or irritated, then the use of aloe vera can be beneficial. Lentil powder will work as a scrub. Grind the lentils soaked overnight and add fresh aloe vera gel to it. Use it as a scrub. Along with removing tan, it will also cool the hands.
