Is your body tone towards the darker side or only your neck and face skin turned dark? If the first part is true then it would be very difficult to convert dark skin to white and if the latter part is the case then try the following home remedies to lighten the skin tone of your face and neck -
- Cut a fresh lime and rub the inner side of it over the face and neck. Let it stay for 20 minutes and then wash it off. This remedy if done on regular basis will help to lighten the skin as lemon acts as a natural bleaching agent.
- Similarly cut a raw potato and rub the inner portion on the face and neck. Leave for 15 minutes before washing it off.
- Before stepping out in sun apply sunscreen lotion of appropriate SPF to protect your skin from sun tan. If wearing some piece of jewelry is the cause for dark skin near neck then it would be wise to avoid it.
- Break open a vitamin E capsule in olive oil. Use this oil to massage your skin on face and neck. This is a very effective remedy to lighten the dark skin.
