Got Tanned During Summer Vacation? Here Are 3 Simple DIY Face Packs To Get Brighter and Glowing Skin

It is that time of the year, where we get to strut out in shorts, dress up in floral designs, indulge in various mango varieties to chilling out with a glass of lemonade by the beach.

This rainy season, let us look at the ways to do away with that pesky tan and glow instantly.

DIY Natural Anti-Tan Face Packs
Besan And Turmeric Face Pack
Ingredients:
1 tbsp of besan
1 tbsp rice flour
2 tbsp of yoghurt
Pinch of turmeric powder
Method:
Mix all the components to form a uniform paste
Apply this mixture all over your face and neck in circular strokes
Leave it on for 30-40 minutes to dry up completely
Wash it off with a wet sponge and water
Why Does It Work?
The dynamic duo of besan and rice flour are prized for their exfoliative traits that not only help diminish tan and lighten the skin tone but also regulate sebum production and prevent pimples. The abundance of curcumin in turmeric delays the ageing signs, and treats pigmentation and even skin tone.
