What To Do
About Freckles
Freckles
appear early in life, increase in number during summer months
and fade in winter. After the age of 40-45 they disappear,
but who wants to wait?
Age spots are similar to freckles. They appear later in life
and can occur in any skin type.
If you know why the discoloration occurs and take measures
to prevent and treat it, you can have an even skin tone at
any age.
What To Do
If you want to avoid skin discoloration, the first and the
most important thing you need to do is to avoid sun exposure
and wear sunscreen. This way your body will not need to produce
more melanin (melanin is produced by the body in response
to sun exposure).
Since melanin is accumulated in the upper layer of the skin,
you might want to consider skin lightening and peeling. There
are different products that can be used for this purpose:
Natural Remedies
- Wash your face with sour milk. Lactic acid will provide
gentle peeling effect without irritating or drying your
skin.
- Lemon juice is a time-proven freckle fighting remedy.
It is not necessary to rub your skin with a piece of lemon.
Applying the juice with your fingers will do the job.
- Fruit and vegetable masks (apricots, strawberries, cucumbers,
red currant).
- Sour cream mask. Do not rinse this mask completely, just
remove gently with a facial tissue, then apply a moisturizer.
For oily skin - use lemon juice before applying the mask.
- Natural parsley juice (or parsley infusion) mixed with
equal amounts of lemon juice, orange juice, and red currant
juice under your favorite cream will help you keep your
freckles invisible.
- Increase your Vitamin C intake! It makes your skin less
sensitive to the sun. Foods rich in vitamin C include citrus
fruits, apples, green onions, black and red currant, rosehip
tea.
