Method 3: Turmeric & Milk
Turmeric combined with milk forms an excellent cleansing mask for skin lightening. This particular recipe also works well to get rid of a suntan.
The turmeric breaks down the melanin cells and curbs their production. The lactic acid in milk dissolves dead skin cells and impurities, while also leaving a bleaching effect on your skin.
Things you’ll need:
Organic turmeric powder (reduces melanin) – 1 tablespoon
Milk (cleanser and bleaching agent) – as needed
Note: Use whole milk if you have dry or combination skin. Use skim milk for oily skin.
Step 1. Combine turmeric and milk

Apply a thin layer of the turmeric mask all over your face and neck.
Wait for 15 to 20 minutes before rinsing it off with plain water.

Apply this turmeric mask 3 or 4 times a week to get lighter and glowing skin.
