Four Remedies To Lighten Dark Discolorations In Your Neck

One factor that can affect our appearance is those dark discolorations that some people have on their necks. Our clothing is therefore not the only thing that can influence our appearance!

The neck is a part of the body that is not always easy to clean properly. That is why in this article we share a number of tips that can help you to ensure that this body part will look perfect on you.

Daily skin care

The tips below may be quite pricey, but they will deliver super fast results and make your skin look noticeably lighter.

• Use a little milk to rub your neck; milk is very cleansing.
• Then use a mild exfoliant to gently exfoliate your skin.
• For example, mix a little olive oil and sugar together and use this mixture to scrub your neck.
• You can also add a little lemon juice to this mixture as lemon has a bleaching effect.
• Once you have properly exfoliated your skin, wash your neck with water and apply a good moisturizer.
• In addition, do not forget to lubricate both your neck and your face with a cream that protects against the sun.  This ensures that your skin does not discolour. In this case, it is best to use a natural sunscreen.

• If you’ve used lemon juice, don’t go outside without slathering your skin with plenty of sunscreen. This can have an undesired effect.

Use lemon

Lemon has several beneficial properties, including its ability to lighten the skin. This ability is due to the citric acid that lemons contain.

You can use lemon in two different ways to lighten the skin on your neck.

Ingredients

• 1 teaspoon lemon juice (5 ml)
• 1 teaspoon rose water (5 ml)

Instructions

• The first thing to do is to mix the lemon juice and rose water together.
• Then gently apply this mixture to the dark discolorations or areas of your neck. This is best done at night before going to bed and after exfoliating the discolored areas of your neck.
• Let the mixture do its job overnight.
• Then rinse it off with water the next morning.

To create visible difference, the idea is to apply this treatment every night for at least a month. After a month you will see that the dark discolorations in your neck have become a lot lighter.

To make this treatment a little more practical, it’s a good idea to mix enough lemon juice and rose water to last for at least a few days.

However, in addition to this treatment, you can use lemon in another way to whiten the skin on your neck. Pay attention.

Ingredients

• The juice of a fresh lemon
• A pinch of ground turmeric
• 1 cotton ball

Instructions

• Mix the lemon juice with the ground turmeric until the two ingredients form a smooth mixture, then apply this mixture using a cotton ball or your hand to the areas of your neck that you would like to bleach.
• Let the mixture do its work for about ten to fifteen minutes.
• Then rinse it off with plenty of water.

Use an oatmeal mask

A homemade oatmeal mask is also a great way to lighten discolored skin on your neck. In addition, oatmeal can also be used well as an exfoliant.

Mix the oatmeal with a few other ingredients to make a great mask that will whiten the dark skin on your neck.

Ingredients

• Oatmeal
• tomato pulp
• Water

Instructions

• Mix the oatmeal with the tomato pulp until the two ingredients together form a more or less smooth paste.
• Then apply this mixture to your neck. Be sure to cover the areas you want to lighten.
• Let the paste do its work for about fifteen to twenty minutes.

• Then wet your neck with water and make circular motions with your hands to massage your neck. This will allow you to properly exfoliate the skin on your neck and remove dead skin cells.
• After that, let the mask sit for another five to seven minutes and then wash it off with water.
• Finally, apply a moisturizing cream to your neck until the cream is completely absorbed.

Use baking soda

Ingredients

• 1 tablespoon salt (10 grams)
• 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil (16 grams)
• and 1 tablespoon baking soda (10 grams)
