Make it a habit to apply sunscreen daily, not just once in the morning. Opt for SPF 30 or higher and re-apply every couple of hours, especially if you’re spending extended periods outdoors. For easy re-application over makeup, consider using a stick or powder sunscreen. Here are some simple and easy home remedy that are useful to remove sun tan in your skin: 

1. Lemon Juice and Honey

Lemon, our star ingredient, is highly acidic and not recommended for direct application, especially before sun exposure due to its photosensitivity. However, when combined with honey, a natural humectant, lemon juice becomes a powerful remedy for removing facial tan. Packed with ascorbic, glycolic, and alpha-hydroxy acids, lemon acts as a natural bleacher and exfoliates the skin’s superficial layer, effectively reversing sun damage and darkening. This combination is hailed as one of the most effective home remedies for tan removal, ensuring glowing and rejuvenated skin.

2. Yoghurt and Gram Flour

For an effective home remedy to remove tan, mix yogurt with a spoonful of gram flour until a thick paste forms. Apply this mixture generously all over your body and let it sit for 20 minutes before rinsing off in the shower. The probiotics, healthy fats, and lactic acid in yogurt work together to cool sunburn, soothe and hydrate the skin, while gram flour gently exfoliates, revealing your natural radiance. For smooth, supple skin, repeat this ritual daily for at least two weeks to completely fade your tan.

3. Yoghurt and Turmeric

This simple remedy is best for vanishing tan from your body. A cooling yogurt and turmeric mask. Just mix chilled yogurt with a pinch of turmeric to create a paste. Apply it to your body and face before showering and leave it on for a minimum of 20 minutes for optimal results. For best outcomes, make this part of your daily routine at least two times a week. Yogurt’s probiotics are the secret ingredient here, known to enhance skin brightening.

4. Gram Flour and Turmeric

Turmeric is a magical ingredient, especially when you’re on the lookout for home remedies for tan removal. But, it’s not just Turmeric that works its magic here – you have to thank the exfoliant properties of Gram Flour too. To make this paste, mix Turmeric, Gram Flour and Milk and add them to a bowl of Rose Water. Keep it on for 20 minutes every day before sleeping and witness visible results in just a few weeks.

5. Curd and Honey

Curd and honey form a dynamic duo for addressing various beauty concerns. Curd acts as a gentle exfoliator, while honeyis loaded with antioxidant properties. When combined, their paste swiftly eliminates tan from your legs, leaving them smooth and radiant. Moreover, this blend adds benefits to your skin and  remains adequately moisturized. For best results, incorporate this remedy into your beauty routine thrice a week.

6. Oats and Buttermilk

Combining oats with buttermilk may not sound exciting, but it proves to be a highly effective remedy for tackling tan-related issues. While oats are renowned for their exfoliating properties but it’s the buttermilk that truly works wonders, leaving your skin feeling soft and supple. Simply massage the mixture onto your feet and legs for a few minutes, and watch as your tan fades away. Follow this routine twice a week, and you’ll discover the ultimate at-home tan removal pack.

7. Cucumber and Lemon

Cucumber and lemon aren’t just reserved for salads; they also create an excellent homemade tan removal solution. The cooling properties of cucumber, paired with the bleaching effect of lemon, work wonders in effectively eliminating unwanted skin tan. You can create a paste by mixing cucumber juice and lemon juice with rosewater, or simply apply cool cucumber slices directly to the tanned areas for a refreshing treatment.
