Dark skin

Skin which is effected due to factors like sun rays, hyperpigmentation, skin disorders or even heredity causes dark skin. Bleaching agents like lemon and orange containing vitamin C are great anti oxidants to lighten skin colour. Milk and curd are also a remedy for skin lightning. Aloe vera and honey are strong agents that help remove dead skin and layer off impurities. As for medicated treatments, there are chemical peels and creams with alpha-hydroxy acids made of natural ingredients such as sugarcane and buttermilk that exfoliate duller and darker skin, reducing melanin synthesis.
