JAKARTA - Black spots on the face are one of the skin problems that many people often experience, especially women. The appearance of black spots on the face often makes a person unable to appear confident. The causes of black spots can vary, ranging from exposure to sunlight, aging, to acne scars.

To overcome this problem, there are several natural ways that you can try. Here are some powerful methods that can help remove black spots naturally.

Pepaya

"Pepaya contains fruit acid known as alpha-hydroxy acid or AHA, which is chemical exfolian," said Dr.gelman as quoted by Byrdie, Friday, July 12.

"AHA is used for dry and anti-aging skin and works to repair the skin by removing the upper layer of the skin through weakening the lipid that binds it. So that it removes dull and dead skin cells and shows healthy skin cells," continued Dr.gelman.

Pepaya is very effective in breaking skin cells and has proven to increase collagen production thanks to the disposal of dead particles. Pepaya will specifically help brighten and make the skin look youthful.

To deal with black spots with papaya, simply mash the papaya carefully in a bowl and apply it as a mask to clean the skin. Let stand for 15-20 minutes. Then, when removing the mask, you can also use a soft circular motion to do a little extra exfoliation to remove the upper layer of the dead skin cells.

Jus lemon

lemon juice contains citric acid which can exfoliate the skin and brighten black spots. However lemon juice can also irritate the skin and make it more sensitive to sunlight, so use it carefully and dilute it with water or honey before applying it to the face. Let it last 10 to 15 minutes and rinse with water. Do this once or twice a week.

Aloe vera

Aloe vera contains aloin which can inhibit tirosinase activity and reduce melanin production. This material can also calm and moisturize the skin. Apply the original crocodile tongue gel to your black spots on your face and leave them for 20 to 30 minutes before washing. Do this twice a day.

Kunyit

Kunyit contains a kurmin that can inhibit tirosinase activity and prevent melanin synthesis. It can also reduce inflammation and fight free radicals. Mix turmeric powder with milk or yogurt to form pasta and apply it to your black spots. Let it last 15 to 20 minutes and rinse with water. Do this once or twice a week.

pineapple Jus

Pineapple leaves contain bromelaws that can exfoliate the skin and fade black spots. Pineapple leaves can also brighten and hydrate the skin. Mix pineapple juice with gram flour, crushing papaya, and honey to form a mask, then massage on the face for five minutes. Let it last 15 to 20 minutes and rinse with warm water. Do this once or twice a week.
