How To Prevent Tanning And Lighten Skin Color?
I am 21 year old girl from Mumbai. My skin has tanned due to day travel and i used to have a fair skin before. Now my hands. legs and face(the exposed areas) have become darker. What should I do to prevent further tanning and how do i lighten my skin colour. Thanks

Hi,
From history it seems that due to day travel under sun light you got this tanning.
Take full precautions to cover your expose body parts with clothes or dupatta.
Apply sun cream lotion before going out.
Use Kojic acid soap or lotion on your affected parts.
Take plenty of water.
Ok and take care.
