After a day of enjoying the sun, sometimes you're left with an unwanted, stubborn tan. While sunscreen is your primary defence against sunburn, natural ingredients can also be beneficial for gently removing tan. Fuller's earth or multani mitti and tomato are a well-known combination that is renowned for its ability to brighten and cleanse the skin. Here we bring you a quick DIY that you can easily make at home for tan removal.
How Multani Mitti And Tomato Work For Tan Removal
Multani mitti, a natural clay, effectively eliminates dead skin cells and promotes a sun-kissed appearance. It also thoroughly purifies the skin, absorbs excess oil and impurities, and provides a natural cooling and soothing sensation on sun-exposed skin. Tomatoes are abundant in antioxidants and vitamin C. They function as a natural astringent, can aid in minimising sun damage, and enhance the radiance of your skin.
DIY Tan Removal Face Pack With Multani Mitti & Tomato
Here is a simple and quick recipe to make this DIY tan removal face pack at home.
Ingredients:
One tablespoon of multani mitti powder
One tablespoon of fresh tomato pulp
Procedure:
Mash ripe tomatoes and make a pulp, grind it and take out the juice.
Now, in a clean bowl, add multani mitti powder and fresh tomato juice to make a smooth paste. If it is too thick, then you can add water.
Before applying, gently clean your face and neck with a light cleanser. This ensures better absorption of the benefits of the pack.
Now, apply a paste on your tanned areas- face, neck, weapon, or any other sun-deserved skin. Avoid delicate skin around your eyes and lips.
Leave the pack for about 15–20 minutes, or until it is completely dry. As it dries, you will feel a tightening sensation, which is normal.
Once dried, wet your hands lightly and gently massage the pack in circular movements to help exfoliate. Then, rinse well with cold water, dry your skin, and apply moisturiser.
