Getting Rid of Skin Tan

Skin Tanning is one of the biggest worries of Modern life. Whatever your age is you want get rid of the tanned marks that you get on your skin after going out in the sun. Today, the problem with most women is that they are working and they cannot avoid going out. Also with the busy schedules and tough life maintaining the skin becomes an issue especially when we live in a country where we have a very long summer season.


Here is a very effective way removing skin tan from your body

Khatta Dahi

Khatta Dahi (Sour Curd) this is a form of curd that gets sour over time due to heat. You could also keep the curd in direct sunlight so that it gets sour and takes this form

How to use

Ingredients

• a glass bowl
• sour curd
• a light cotton cloth
• a loofah

Method

Strain the curd with the help of the light cotton cloth. Now you will get a semi solid curd. Dry your body and soak the loofah in the curd. With the help of the loofah gently scrub the curd on your body. Remember to put more amount of curd on hands and do not use a loofah for your face you might damage the skin. After you have put the curd let it rest for 10 mins. Then wash it with water and avoid using soap for best results but if you don't like the curd smell use your regular soap and you will get away with it easily. Pat yourself dry.

With a regular use of curd you will notice even very old tan marks fade away from your skin.

Lakme Fashion Week 2013

Lakme Fashion Week 2013 witnessed an array of clothes in the wide gamut of colors. On one hand we had black and white ensemble and on the other was the playfulness of summer. I frankly am in favor of the clothes that you can wear off the ramp as well. 

Summer clothes should always be comfy and flowy and you can hang around this concept and create anything that you can. I am not averse to the idea of wearing black in summer but I would still prefer not using it, unless the comfort level is too high. 

Here are the pictures of my favorite pics from the Lakme Fashion Week 2013

These were the most wearable of the lot and also they have life of colors to attract me.

Also what else we liked was

Summer friendly clothes should always give you breathing space and we love these

girlies, Happy styling!
