Tanning is a concern regardless of the season, and that’s why the Detan mask has become essential. Not everyone can afford expensive detanning treatments at the salon, so we offer you five masks suitable for all skin types that you can easily make at home. The best part? They’re inexpensive and simple to use, all thanks to the powerhouse ingredient: aloe vera gel.
Aloe vera gel is packed with natural ingredients that work wonders for your skin. Here’s how it helps remove tan:
Soothing and Cooling: Aloe vera’s cooling effect offers quick relief to the skin from tan, reducing irritation and redness.
Moisturizing: Aloe vera acts as a natural moisturizer, keeping your skin hydrated and healthy, essential for tan removal and preventing acne.
Anti-Inflammatory: It possesses anti-inflammatory properties that reduce swelling and discomfort caused by heat or tanning.
Let’s dive into the masks:
Skin Renewal: Mix 1 tablespoon of aloe vera gel with 1 tablespoon of Multani Mitti (Fuller’s Earth) and a few drops of rose water to form a smooth paste. Apply it to your face, let it dry, then rinse with cold water.
Dry Skin: Combine 2 tablespoons of aloe vera gel with 1 tablespoon of honey. Apply the mixture to your face, leave it for 15-20 minutes, then rinse with warm water.
Combination Skin: Mix 2 tablespoons of aloe vera gel with 1 tablespoon of yogurt. Apply the mixture evenly to your face, leave it on for 20 minutes, then rinse with cold water.
Sensitive Skin: Blend 2 tablespoons of aloe vera gel with 1/4 cup of cucumber puree. Apply this mask to your face, leave it for 15-20 minutes, then wash it off with cold water.
Acne-Prone Skin: Mix 2 tablespoons of aloe vera gel with 2-3 drops of tea tree oil. Apply the mixture to the face, focusing on acne-prone areas. Leave it for 15 minutes, then rinse with warm water.
