5 Effective DIY Face Masks to Remove Tan Naturally

Sun rays can leave your skin dull, uneven, and tanned. While sunscreen helps prevent damage, you can also rejuvenate your skin with simple DIY face masks at home. Here are five effective options for tan removal:

Tomato and Lemon Mask

Tomato is rich in antioxidants, while lemon brightens the skin. Mix one tablespoon of tomato pulp with a few drops of lemon juice. Apply for 15–20 minutes and rinse with lukewarm water for a natural glow.

Yogurt and Turmeric Mask

Yogurt soothes the skin, and turmeric reduces pigmentation. Combine two tablespoons of yogurt with a pinch of turmeric. Leave it on for 20 minutes, then wash off for lighter, refreshed skin

Aloe Vera Gel

Aloe vera cools sun-damaged skin and fades tan. Apply fresh aloe gel directly to your face, leave it for 20 minutes, and rinse to calm and brighten your skin.

Gram Flour and Milk Mask

Mix two tablespoons of gram flour with enough milk to make a paste. Apply and let it dry, then scrub gently. This mask exfoliates dead skin and reduces tanning.

Cucumber and Honey Mask

Cucumber hydrates, while honey lightens pigmentation. Blend cucumber with a teaspoon of honey, apply for 15–20 minutes, and rinse for refreshed, tan-free skin.
