Skin becomes patchy and dark when there is excess melanin, a natural pigment responsible for hair and skin colour. Its excess formation causes discolouration. So, if you want to reduce melanin from the skin, use these tips.

Apply a Mixture of Lemon Juice and Honey

A mixture of lemon juice and honey on your face helps lighten the skin. Lemon is rich in vitamin C and helps in lightening the dark spots. It acts as a bleaching agent when used with honey and helps reduce discolouration.

Paste of Turmeric and Curd 

Turmeric is a rich source of antioxidant and anti-inflammatory agents, which help reduce discolouration. Also, the good bacteria of curd add glow to your skin.

Use a Mixture of Tomato and Rose Water

Tomatoes consist of lycopene, a powerful antioxidant. When you apply it with rose water, the antioxidant fights against free radicals and helps reduce open pores and blackheads.

Apply Potato Paste 

Potatoes consist of catecholase that reduces melanin from the skin naturally. It works perfectly on the skin and reduces excess melanin.

Aloe Vera 

The antioxidants and anti-inflammatory properties of aloe vera help even out the skin.
