Nobody is perfect; we all have our flaws. This is true when it comes to our skin tone as well. Some of us have dark circles while some others have pigmentation. But we don’t have to resign ourselves to fate and live with our flaws. We can follow some simple steps to get rid of such skin woes and to even out our skin tone.
1. Drink Lots of Water
The change should come from within. If we want our skin to glow and be healthy then we need to keep it hydrated by replenishing our body with water throughout the day.
2. Drink Orange Juice Daily
Drink a glass of freshly squeezed orange juice every day. Try not to add sugar in it; you can add a spoon of organic honey instead.
3. Start Using Sun Screen Meticulously
Your skin tone might be uneven because of the damage caused by the sun. Apply sun screen every day, even if you are indoors and even during winter. Keep your skin shielded from the sun as much as possible. You will see a definite improvement in your skin tone over time.
4. Apply Fresh Aloe Vera Gel
Aloe Vera Gel will not only get rid of tan and soothe the skin, it will also reverse any damage caused by the sun, stress, and other factors. Have an aloe vera plant in the house and use it once a week to keep your skin in a good condition.
5. Exfoliate Once a Week
Exfoliating helps get rid of dead skin cells and other impurities lurking on the skin. It scrubs away the top layer of skin and brings out the new layer. Your skin will immediately look brighter and healthier.
6. Use a BB or CC Cream
Not only do they help cover up your flaws to an extent, but BB and CC creams also work to repair damage and make skin healthy.

7. Use Milk as a Face Cleanser
Milk helps clean out your skin and softens it as well. Dab a cotton ball in some raw milk and use the cotton to wipe all over your face.
8. Sweat it Out
Work out and steam your face to sweat the pores. When the pores open up, all the blocks and impurities are removed. Sweating is a great way to rid the body of accumulated toxins.
9. Take Vitamin Supplements
Check with your doctor and get prescriptions for vitamin supplements. When you are getting your daily dose of vitamins, your skin looks and feels much better.
10. Sleep Well
Make sure you sleep soundly for eight hours every night. Sleep deprivation could manifest itself as dark circles, breakouts, and lead to further health complications if not corrected. So get your eight hours of sleep and your skin will thank you for it.
11. Switch to Mineral Makeup
Your makeup could be causing all or some of your skin conditions. Try switching to mineral makeup and see if you can spot a difference after three to four months. If your skin starts behaving well after you stop your regular makeup, then they were probably the culprit.
All these tips will help in evening out your skin tone, but only if you stick to it and do not give up. You need to make some lifestyle changes, like cutting down on junk food, and eating more fruits and vegetables on a daily basis. When you treat your body right, it will show through and your skin will look much better.
