Rub A Potato Slice On Your Face Each Night – How It Helps Will Surprise You

Blame it on the scorching heat, hormonal changes, aging or skin issues, dark spots and patches can be an unnerving experience. There’s no denying that dark spots also known as hyperpigmentation can be fixed instantly with home remedies, but topical application of certain remedies on a daily basis can give some positive results in lightening the dark spots and reducing the uneven pigmentation. Here are some age-old remedies that can significantly reduce the Hyperpigmentation and lighten the dark spots.

1. Raw potato slices

Rapid Home Remedies says potatoes are chock-full of nutrients, including B vitamins, which facilitate skin cell renewal, as well as niacinamide, known for its skin-lightening properties. (Who

 would’ve thought something as ordinary as a potato could be so dynamic?)

To combat the effects of hyperpigmentation, Rapid Home Remedies recommends rubbing a slice of raw potato over your face three to four times a day for up to 10 minutes at a time. If the potato feels too dry or abrasive, the site also suggest moistening the slice with water. Over time, you just may notice a reduction in your dark spots.

2. Plain yogurt

According to Holistic Health Herbalist, “yogurt contains lactic acid, a gentle but effective natural form of hydroxyl acid that exfoliates, softens skin, and lightens dark spots.” To give this

 natural remedy a shot, apply full-fat plain yogurt directly on your skin’s dark spots for 20 minutes at a time.
