These are some of the effective sun tan removal home remedies. But then as we all know, prevention is better than cure, so keep the following in mind to prevent tanning

  • Wear Bright- or dark-colored fabrics, as they have a much higher Ultraviolet Protection Factor (UPF) than light-colored clothing. If you can see light through the fabric, this also means that UV light is getting through to your skin!
  • Wear long sleeves and long pants to decrease skin exposure. If you still have to wear shorts, try to wear a longer pair that covers most of the thighs. Collared shirts can also help protect your neck from tanning.
  • Apply sunscreen lotion 30 minutes before leaving the house to your entire body and make sure you do not miss area like ears, lips, back of the neck, hands and feet.
  • As we all know that the skin on your face and eyes are very sensitive to sun exposure, so extra precautions must be taken to protect them. Use hats and sunglasses to curb some of the risks while going outdoors. Seek shade whenever possible. Use umbrella to avoid as much UV exposure as possible during peak sunlight hours.
