Home remedies are very popular. It can be relaxing and a way to give spend some “me” time .

Here are few safest alternatives to popular home remedies:
✅Ice globes not ice for redness
Avoid applying ice directly in skin as there is a possibility of ice burn. It is better to wrap it on a thin cloth and use it. Ice globes are a good option. They distribute coolness more evenly without damaging the skin.

✅Papaya not orange for brightening
Avoid using oranges, crushed dried orange peels as scrubs or orange juice on the face. It can be very irritating on the skin. Physical scrubs even if natural should be avoided.
Instead use papaya . Papaya mashed with curd can be cooling face pack on the skin.

✅Tomato not lemon for tanning
Avoid lemon on the skin. They sensitise skin against UV rays and can actually cause irritation and tanning. It is better to use a tomato instead. Tomato is rich in antioxidant lycopene and can be soothing on the skin.

🚨Remember that home remedies do not treat an underlying disorder. They can only moisturise or gently exfoliate the skin.

🚨Natural skin colour cannot change. We can only reduce tanning, dark spots and make skin tone more even.

👩‍⚕️In my opinion, home remedies should only be used for relaxation purpose. If any of the above conditions are troublesome, please visit your dermatologist for effective management and treatment.
