The tough summer is finally coming to an end. With the drops of rains, the weather has begun to cool down. The wedding season will be here soon. Everybody is trying to make their skin look fair and party-ready. We all want to get rid of the year-long summer tan and the oiliness. Many home remedies can help you get clear and glowing skin.
Every woman is blessed with amazing skin. However, due to our busy schedules, we have very little time left for self-care. Additionally, pollution, climate, makeup, etc. make our skin dull and dry. As a result, this takes away our skin's glow. Many times, it also affects the self-esteem of women.
Do you long to get back your fairer, flawless, and smoother skin tone? To fulfill this dream, we turn to skin lightening creams, lotions, and whitening pills. These skin lightening products contain harsh chemicals. As a result, it causes severe skin irritation, uneven bleaching of the skin, dryness, and discoloration. Most of the time we use chemical products that are not suitable for our skin types.
But don't worry.
We have listed a few amazing home remedies that will help you get back your beautiful skin again. If Mother Nature has blessed us with natural ingredients to lighten skin at home then why choose commercial lightening creams that are unnatural, artificial, and damaging to the skin. Remember, always try a patch test on your hand before applying it to your face.
Home Remedies For Glowing Skin
Here are the best home remedies to get clear and glowing skin:

1) Lemon Juice Works Wonders For Glowing Skin.
A common household ingredient, lemon juice, works wonderfully to lighten skin tone. Use lemon juice in your face packs and see the difference. To get rid of a stubborn tan, you can simply cut a lemon in half and rub it on the skin and wash off with warm water.
Apply lemon for your elbows and knees and feet which will get rid of blackness and from cracks. Remember, Lemon juice can be used but not too much as it contains citrus acid in it. Make sure to use a moisturizer after a lemon wash because lemon dries off your skin and if you have sensitive skin, it is better to dilute it. Vitamin C is not suitable for all skin types.
2) Use Milk To Get Glowing Skin
Use milk or curd, they are the best for fair and glowy skin. You can massage them on your face and rinse it off after 15 or 20 minutes. Curd or Milk can be combined with many other herbal ingredients found in your kitchen to make homemade pure face packs.Photo by Engin Akyurt from Pexels |
Here are some combinations:
Curd + Besan (Gram Flour)
Papaya + Milk which will act as an amazing scrubber
Curd + honey for good skin massage
Cucumber + honey + curd for glowing skin
Another amazing face pack that I have been using regularly is Besan + Turmeric + honey + milk or curd + Rosewater. Simply mix these in a plastic bowl and apply it on your face. Then, allow it to dry and wash it off with lukewarm water. You can do this daily if possible as the results will be better.
For skin whitening use one tablespoon of dry shredded coconut with warm milk, one tablespoon of rice flour and one spoon of baking soda make a paste apply it on your face or body allow to dry, and washed with water. Try twice a month u can get fair skin.
3) Fruits and Veggies Are A Treasure
Many fruits and veggies from our kitchen can help transform our skin.

- Potatoes also work great for skincare treatment. Simply cut one potato and rub the moist part on your face. Massage well and rinse off.
- Orange juice is also really good to drink as well as to apply to your face. Orange peel powder can be applied for better glowing in the face.
- Banana's are also filled with amazing health properties. Apply smashed Banana and let it dry and wash off with normal water.
- Another lesser-known remedy is the watermelon juice face pack. We can apply watermelon juice and let it dry and wash and see the magic.
- Rubbing a fresh cucumber smoothly over the skin refreshes it and adds a glossy shine too. Repeat this method every day for about 5-10 minutes and you'll gradually feel your complexion getting fairer.
4) Rose: The Flower of Love and Beauty.
Rosewater has ample of benefits. I'll be posting another article specially dedicated to the benefits of rose.

- For amazing skincare results, apply Multani Mitti + Rosewater every night (before sleeping) and rinse it off with normal water.
- Another simple method is mixing rosewater +glycerine which will help you get softer glowing skin. But I recommend testing this on your hand first.
- You can also apply a paste of rose petals on your skin and scrub it off after it dries regularly to get baby pink lips.
Must-Do Things
- Water is the best thing for healthy skin. Drink as much water as you can. Water helps to keep your skin stay hydrated and also helps out to flush out toxins.
- Besides all these one should eat well + drink a lot of water + sleep well.
- Keep your skin moisturized at all times.
- Also, exfoliate a few times a week with any simple face scrub.
- Do not let stress overtake your mind. Spend 15 mins every day meditating and listening to calming music.
- Additionally, green vegetables also help contribute to your skin's health.
- Staying out of the sun for prolonged hours and using natural facial masks will also prevent your skin from tanning.
- Exercise helps you to stay healthy and get rid of toxins. Try yoga as well.
- Always make sure to use sunblock if you're going to be going outside.
- When choosing a sunblock, try to find one with a mineral block such as Zinc Oxide or Titanium Dioxide.
- If you are going to be married soon, make sure you are well prepared.
