Lighten Age Spots and Freckles Naturally

By Cait Johnson, Assistant Producer, Care2 Healthy Living Content.

 

Summer days in the sun can make freckles and age spots more

pronounced--at least, they‘ve sure done that to me. I now have a lavish

amount of both, so I looked for a good natural way to lighten them that

wouldn’t contain harmful chemicals. And I found one! Wise beauties have

used this one kitchen-cupboard ingredient for centuries to make their

skin look smooth and flawless. Find the secret to lightening age spots

and freckles naturally here. Lemon juice is the key to lightening age

spots and freckles. Its powerful acid action really does the trick.

 

Here are two methods for using lemon juice:

 

1. To exfoliate dead skin and diminish the appearance of freckles and

age spots, gently rub a cut lemon and 1/2 teaspoon sugar granules over

the skin for a few minutes. Repeat at least once a week until the

darkened areas fade.

 

2. Or simply sit with a slice of lemon applied directly to the area for

ten minutes. Repeat once a week until spots fade.
