We Indians are blessed with good skin and hair but taking care of that is a huge responsibility. In a tropical country like India, it becomes difficult to keep your skin safe and protected from the harmful rays of the sun. It is extremely damaging to the skin and hence exposure to the sun for about 10 minutes can also tan your skin making it look dull and dark.

Skin tan is a common problem for us Indians and although there are so many treatments available to help with the problem, these treatments can really damage your skin to a great extent. But nature can help you with this and you can achieve the beautiful skin that you wish to have.

Here are three easy ways to help you with skin tan.

When mixed together, these two ingredients will help you fight skin tan easily.

Squeeze out the juice of a lemon and store it in a bowl. Cut a tomato into two halves. Then take one half of the tomato and dip it in the lemon juice and apply it on the affected parts of your body. Keep it on for a good 10 - 15 minutes and then wash it off with cold water. You can do this twice a week for best results.
