This natural remedy against skin discoloration is based on Ayurveda principles, the ancient Indian science of healing.
Lemon is a natural bleaching agent that stimulates skin exfoliation, while turmeric is a great anti-inflammatory agent aside from also being a natural skin whitener. Plus, turmeric can make your skin glow, which is all too familiar to the Indians.
If your skin is sensitive, dilute the lemon juice with water or use milk instead.
