How to Reduce Pigmentation
Few things will age your skin faster than an uneven skin tone. The term used for dark spots or blotches on the skin is hyperpigmentation. Hyperpigmented areas on the face and body are caused by the skin's cells producing excessive melanin. Melanin is the substance that naturally determines how dark your complexion is overall and serves as a natural sunscreen to the degree that it is present. When skin has been damaged, the body sometimes responds during healing by signaling for greater amounts of melanin to be produced in the same location as a protective measure. Natural techniques can be used to reduce the pigmentation of such areas of the face and body.
Things You'll Need
Orange peels
Plain yogurt
Sandalwood powder
Lemon juice or tomato juice
Cucumber juice
Almonds
Honey
Potato
Over-the-counter skin-lightening cream
Instructions
1
Dry orange peels in the sun until they are stiff; then either grate or grind them into a powder to which you add an equal amount of plain yogurt. Spread the mixture onto only the darkened areas of your skin, and then wash away with warm water after 15 minutes.
2
Take sandalwood powder (called chandan, and sold inexpensively in East Indian markets) and add just enough lemon juice or tomato juice to make a paste. Place this onto the overly pigmented areas of your skin and allow it to dry completely before washing it off. If your skin is dry or sensitive, omit the lemon juice or tomato juice and use finely grated cucumber (with the skin) instead.
3
Mix three to five raw, shelled almonds that have been soaking in warm water overnight with 1 or 2 tablespoons of honey. Crush them to form a paste, and apply to damp skin on the darkened areas. Rinse when dry.
4
Grate a raw potato into small pieces, or puree it in a food processor until partially liquefied. Apply the pulp daily to your skin to naturally lighten and nourish it.
5
Follow any of the above steps with a skin cream formula that contains Alpha-Arbutin and/or kojic acid for faster results. "Over-the-counter" creams containing 2 percent hydroquinone (which contains mercury), once commonly used, have been cited by the FDA as posing serious potential dangers to users.

Orange beauty benefits
Fruits are known to have a lot of benefits for our skin. That is why nowadays fruit packs are preferred over any other cosmetic packs for a healthy and glowing skin. Many fruits can be used in various forms to benefit our skin. Orange is one such multi-talented fruit. Juice, pulp or skin, every part of this fruit can be used for a beautiful you!
Some benefits for you:
Orange, being rich in anti-oxidants helps firm and tone the skin. So you can very well understand how it prevents the appearance of wrinkles on your skin making you look younger for many years.
It keeps your skin feeling fresh and soothing on a hot summer day.
As orange is a citrus fruit, it also works on acne. The citric acid in the fruit acts as natural astringent and helps in drying away the pimples.
It detoxifies the skin making it look fresher and brighter.
Orange is a natural bleach to lighten your skin tone. Avoid the harsh chemical bleaches when you have such an inexpensive bleach!
How to use orange for your skin:
Apply orange juice on your face like a face wash. Rub it for a few seconds and rinse it off with cold water. It will clean up your skin pores and also close enlarged pores.
Another way is to dip a cotton ball in orange juice and dab it on your skin. Keep for 2-3 mins. Wash off and feel the glossiness and smoothness on your skin.
Cut half the orange and rub it on your skin. It will help your skin feel fresh in these hot summer days.
Now that you have used the pulp and the juice, left alone is the orange peel. Don’t dishearten it by throwing it away. It can be also of your help. How?
Keep away the orange peel to dry up in the sun. Then grind it in a powder. Now this powder can be mixed and matched with some homely ingredients and used very effectively on your skin. It can be used as a mask, scrub and even as a toner. Stay tuned to know more.
Lets start with mask. Mix equal amounts of orange peel powder and milk properly to form a smooth paste. Let it stand for an hour or two. Then apply it evenly all over your face and keep it for about half an hour. Rinse your face with cold water. Make sure not to rub your face as it may cause damage to your skin. This acts as a great bleach for your skin.
Now lets prepare a body scrub out of it. You may use the same mixture as above or mix it with a little water and rub your body with it. It will remove all the dead cells and give you an instant glow.
Now if you do not want to dry it and grind it (it takes time, right?), use it as a toner. Simply soak these peels in a bowl with boiling water. Keep it for a day.

Some benefits for you:Orange, being rich in anti-oxidants helps firm and tone the skin. So you can very well understand how it prevents the appearance of wrinkles on your skin making you look younger for many years.
It keeps your skin feeling fresh and soothing on a hot summer day.
As orange is a citrus fruit, it also works on acne. The citric acid in the fruit acts as natural astringent and helps in drying away the pimples.
It detoxifies the skin making it look fresher and brighter.
Orange is a natural bleach to lighten your skin tone. Avoid the harsh chemical bleaches when you have such an inexpensive bleach!
How to use orange for your skin:
Apply orange juice on your face like a face wash. Rub it for a few seconds and rinse it off with cold water. It will clean up your skin pores and also close enlarged pores.
Another way is to dip a cotton ball in orange juice and dab it on your skin. Keep for 2-3 mins. Wash off and feel the glossiness and smoothness on your skin.
Cut half the orange and rub it on your skin. It will help your skin feel fresh in these hot summer days.
Now that you have used the pulp and the juice, left alone is the orange peel. Don’t dishearten it by throwing it away. It can be also of your help. How?
Keep away the orange peel to dry up in the sun. Then grind it in a powder. Now this powder can be mixed and matched with some homely ingredients and used very effectively on your skin. It can be used as a mask, scrub and even as a toner. Stay tuned to know more.
Lets start with mask. Mix equal amounts of orange peel powder and milk properly to form a smooth paste. Let it stand for an hour or two. Then apply it evenly all over your face and keep it for about half an hour. Rinse your face with cold water. Make sure not to rub your face as it may cause damage to your skin. This acts as a great bleach for your skin.
Now lets prepare a body scrub out of it. You may use the same mixture as above or mix it with a little water and rub your body with it. It will remove all the dead cells and give you an instant glow.
Now if you do not want to dry it and grind it (it takes time, right?), use it as a toner. Simply soak these peels in a bowl with boiling water. Keep it for a day. Then strain it and store the liquid in freezer. Use it as a toner as and when required to a cooling effect on your skin. It also firms your skin reducing wrinkles.
This magic liquid can also e used as a final hair rinse to get shiny hair. It also helps remove dandruff.

Egg is a powerhouse of all the anti-ageing elements like omega3 fatty acid, proteins, zinc and the egg yolk contains a special anti-ageing compound called the “biotin”. Biotin helps in the fat production in the body and repairs the damaged skin, thus keeping the wrinkles away.
Take 1 teaspoon of egg white in a bowl.

Then finally add a teaspoon of lemon juice.
Mix well and apply this all over your face.
Leave it for 15 minutes and rinse with cold water.
Apply this face pack every alternate day.

In this add half a teaspoon of lemon juice and a few drops of glycerine.
Dip a cotton ball into this and apply it all over the face.
Do not wash your face after applying this pack as your face will absorb it completely.
5. Coconut milk:
This topical fruit fights all signs of ageing making your skin soft and smooth. It has antioxidants and anti inflammatory properties which keeps the wrinkles away.

Home Remedies for Sunburn – 4 Natural Solutions
As summer hits the nation, sunburn presents itself as an unwanted side effect of extensive sun exposure. What you may not have heard, however, is the fact that sunburn can actually be fought off by changing your diet to incorporate more ‘living’ fruit and vegetables that are rich in both enzymes and essential nutrients. In addition, a number of natural home remedies for sunburn also exist that can be utilized to help soothe and treat any case of sunburn that has already affected you. From a simple enriched bath to revitalizing foods, many options exist to help alleviate the pain associated with sunburn. Here are 4 home remedies for sunburn.
1. Home remedies for Sunburn – Apply Aloe Vera
The aloe vera plant is widely revered for its skin-enhancing and protecting qualities, and is therefore highly recommended by a number of practicioners for the treatment and alleviation of sunburn and related issues. Taking the sting and redness out of your sunburn, aloe vera naturally accomplishes this through its ability to constrict blood vessels. Amazingly, this plant is widely available throughout the world and can be purchased at your local nursery or market. You can also purchase high quality organic aloe vera juice online for a relatively inexpensive price. Aloe vera juice is also quite delicious when sold in beverage form, and can help to bolster your overall health.
2. Alleviate Sunburn with Tea
A lesser known way of fighting sunburn includes using chilled tea – black tea in particular, as it is known for its ability to help the body recover more quickly from sunburn. After chilling a cup of black tea, gently apply the liquid to the affected area. You may also use cooled chamomile tea, which is also useful for poison ivy and other skin conditions.
3. Super Hydrate
Water is not only instrumental in achieving peak health levels, but proves useful in alleviating sunburn as well. When the sun ‘burns’ your skin, it also dehydrates it. Be sure to drink plenty of water — not ‘fluids’ — in order to hydrate and feel better. Coconut water is also very effective as an alternative, which come with a number of benefits. As a rule of thumb, try drinking your body weight divided in half in ounces of water per day (for example a 200 lb man would drink 100 ounces). Another tip is to hydrate until your urine is mostly clear (which is not very applicable if you are taking a vitamin supplement beforehand however).
4. The Potato Technique
Among the great pain-relieving home remedies for sunburn, the time-tested potato technique involves cutting two washed potatoes into chunks and placing them in a blender. Afterwards, blend until the potatoes reach a liquid form. You can always add water if this is a challenge. Once completed, apply the new concoction to the burned areas and follow it up with a cool shower. You can even apply the mixture to a clean gauze and then directly apply it to the burn. Continuing for a few days, pain relief should be experienced in conjunction with overall improvement.
In addition to these home remedies for sunburn, you can also try natural sunburn treatment through certain foods like carrots, watermelon, and cucumbers.
