Hey Girls! How are you guys doing? Well here in Mumbai we are all dying of heat and humidity 😥
Recently while taking the daily public transport to work and of course in the harsh sun, made my skin really sun burnt and tanned. My skin is very sensitive to sun and immediately I noticed my skin turning dark on day 3. I was terrified since I have a few weddings coming up! But thanks to our kitchen and the two wonderful summer tan face pack recipes that I’m going to share, it really worked well for this summer tan.
So stopping the blabber, let’s go ahead to the recipe.
Ingredients for Summer tan face pack:
- 2 tsp curd
- 2 tsp almond powder
- 2 tsp green gram
- 1 tsp turmeric
Procedure:
- Mix all the above ingredients together to form a paste
- Now apply the paste on your face, and wash it when it is semi-dry
- This will show great results when used daily for at least 10 days
Here’s the second recipe that will beat the summer tan!
Ingredients For summer tan face pack:
- 4 Almonds
- 3 tsp red lentils (masoor dal)
- ¼ cup buttermilk
Procedure:
- Soak the almonds and red lentils in buttermilk for 3 hours
- Grind the above mixture to form a paste
- Apply evenly across the face and neck
- Leave it on for 15 minutes and wash it off with buttermilk
- Lastly a splash of regular water and voila check your skin!
Ok now let’s study the benefits of each of these ingredients:
Curd:
- Curd is very rich in lactic acid and probiotics.
- It helps lightly exfoliate the skin thereby removing tan and revealing fresh skin
- Also works great for skin pigmentation
Almonds:
- Blessed with proteins, Vitamin E and Omega 3 fatty acids
- Almonds nourishes the skin and brightens our face
- Also works great for oily as well as dry skin
Green Gram:
- Green gram lentils are loaded with Vitamin B and C.
- It is a great substitute to face facial scrubs as they scrub off the dirt and dead skin very effectively
- Great for acne prone skin
Turmeric:
- Needless to say it is wonderful!
- Turmeric is the best anti-bacterial in natural form
- It also helps lighten the skin tone
Red Lentils:
- High in iron and potassium, red lentil works great as scrub.
- They slough the dead skin cells and revitalizes the body and face
- It also works great on fighting black heads
This summer tan face pack recipe when used religiously every day (better if used twice a day) for at least 10-15 days will show you wonderful results. It’s a guarantee it will work! Depending on your skin type it might take a few more days.
It worked great on my skin and body; in fact I think I’ll keep alternating between these recipes thrice a week at least as prevention; definitely there is no harm 🙂
Do try it guys I am telling you this is THE best recipe to fight the summer tan and reveal your natural skin tone 😀
Stay Blessed, Love and Light -
