Mumbai: Are you fed up of the dark skin at the back of your neck? Even after trying on several things your skin is still the same? If yes, don't you worry. We tell you how to get rid of those dark creases. Just follow these simple tips and see the change:

Clean and Clear
To start with, we suggest you make it a point to wash your neck on a regular basis properly with your body wash while having bath

Rub on Some Scrub
Make sure you use a skin exfoliater on the dark area and scrub it thrice a week to lighten the dark skin

Sunny Side Down
Even over exposure to sun causes the skin to sweat and tan. If that's the case with you, start wearing sunscreen lotion before you go out in the sun

Night Regime
Make it a routine to regularly tone, cleanse and massage your skin with a skin whitening lotion, before you go to bed, so that there are no deposits of dirt

Bleaching Basics
It's also a good idea to bleach the dark area with a mild bleach once  a month to ensure that it doesn't darken any further

Home-Made Solution
The best home remedy to get rid of dark skin is to make a solution of 3 tbsp milk, 1 tsp honey, 1 tsp limejuice and a tsp of almond oil. Apply this on the dark area and leave it on for fifteen minutes. This pack helps get rid of dark skin
