Tips for Augmenting Your Skin Whitening Treatment with Natural Options

What You Need to Know About Skin Whitening – Part 5

Skin whitening products and therapy are very effective at lightening your problem skin areas to create a beautiful, even-toned complexion, but there is also a variety of natural skin whitening options that you might like to know about. These natural options are best used in tandem with skin whitening products and other treatments. They are also useful if you have a negative reaction to your current skin whitening product or treatment and would like to continue your efforts as you seek out new products to try. Natural skin whitening options can bridge the gap between stopping the irritating treatment and your dermatologist recommending a new option. That way, you can still stay on track to achieving lighter, more even-toned skin.

Here are some natural skin whitening options to get you started:

  • The natural acidic essential oils located in citrus fruit peels are great for lightening dark spots. The next time you eat an orange, save the peels and put them out in the sun or other warm location to dry. When they are completely dry, grind them into a powder and add milk (as close to raw as you can get) to make a paste. Apply this paste every day to the skin area(s) you would like to whiten. Wait for the paste to dry, and then rinse it off with lukewarm water.
  • Get sandalwood powder and add lemon juice, tomato juice and cucumber juice to the powder to make a paste. As with the orange paste, apply the mixture daily to the skin areas you would like to whiten, wait for it to dry, and then rinse the paste off with lukewarm water. An alternative to this method is to not include the sandalwood powder and just use the combined liquid from the lemon, tomato and cucumber rather than the paste.
  • Get two spoonfuls of gram flour (which contains a whitening agent) and add a pinch of turmeric, a few drops of lemon juice and a few drops of milk cream. Apply the resulting paste to your skin, wait for it to dry, and then scrub it off (the scrubbing helps to remove dead skin cells and leave newer, healthier skin behind)
  • Allow almonds to soak in water overnight. The next day, peel the almonds and grind them into a powder. Add honey to this almond powder to make a paste, and apply to the skin areas that need whitening. Let it dry, and then scrub it off.
  • Potato juice has a great natural whitening agent, which reduces pigmentation and blemishes. Rub the juice onto your problem spots daily, and give it some time to penetrate your skin before showering.

As you can see, various foods and liquids that you likely use frequently and may already have in your kitchen can be mixed together to effectively whiten your skin naturally. The benefits of these liquids and pastes is that they come from all natural sources, which is great if you would like to naturally augment your current product without worrying about product side effects.

Skin Whitening Lifestyle: Eat Right and Be Sun-Smart

What You Need to Know About Skin Whitening – Part 4

If you have begun your research into skin whitening options, you have likely come across various treatments, such as pills, creams, bleaches and laser therapy. What you may not yet be aware of, is that in conjunction with the skin whitening product you will be using, you can also make certain lifestyle choices to help augment and maintain the product’s skin whitening effect.

Standard advice for maintaining healthy, blemish-free skin should also be taken to heart when pursuing skin whitening treatment, such as being aware of sun exposure. UV rays speed up melanin production, which, if you are turning to skin whitening products to even out dark spots in your complexion, is exactly opposite of what you want to see happening.

While the skin whitening product will whiten the dark skin area, too much sun exposure will darken it right back again. The lesson here is to remember your beauty advice: Stay out of the sun when you can (which does not mean you have to stay inside, but consider wearing a stylish hat outdoors) and use plenty of sunscreen. Even if you are not prone to burning, you are not immune to UV damage, so remember that you need to reapply sunscreen often, depending on the sunscreen’s SPF level and the activities you are engaging in (sweat-producing exercise and getting in the water are two primary activities that need frequent sunscreen reapplication). Plus, check out the various make-up products at your favorite beauty store that contain SPF protection so you can look fabulous and protect your skin during skin whitening treatment simultaneously.

But sun-smart tactics are not the only lifestyle choices that can help keep your skin looking lovely and even-toned. Did you know balanced nutrition also helps strengthen your skin? Keeping a healthy and balanced diet is not only for satisfying your body’s nutritional needs and preventing eating-related illnesses. Eating healthy also enriches your exterior, from your hair down to your toenails.

Enjoy foods in the antioxidant category such as blackberries, blueberries and black grapes. Not only are these foods delicious, but antioxidants are fantastic for your skin. Antioxidants fight against free radicals that damage your cells and cause cellular decay, so eating foods from this powerhouse group keeps your skin glowing and fresh.
Remember to drink lots of water. Water hydrates your skin, which keeps it free of blemishes. By keeping in mind how much water you are drinking, you are giving the skin whitening product a big helping hand. As the product is doing its work, you are right there behind it protecting and strengthening the new skin.

Skin whitening products will work to reduce uneven skin tone areas to give you a beautiful flawless complexion. But you will have to maintain that complexion after treatment has ended in order to keep your skin looking beautiful. By making certain lifestyle choices, which benefit you in more ways than just skin whitening, you will be able to make the skin whitening treatment really count, and you will enjoy a lovely, even-toned complexion for a long time afterward.
