Pigmentation Home Remedies

There are a ton of old wives tales, urban legends or what ever you want to call them about helping with skin pigmentation. Today we are going to have a look at a few of the best pigmentation home remedies that have been reported to actually work.

Two of the best selected remedies for pigmentation are the use of over-the-counter (OTC) creams and if you prefer natural alternatives, use lemon juice.

Although these remedies are set to work, it is important to note that the two methods we have here will not be some instant miracle cure. Pigmentation reduction will not happen overnight.

It takes time and for it to be effective, you need to stick with these for at least 6 weeks in a row before you will start to notice any real results.

Prevention

Although home remedies may help, the best solution is actually prevention. As the saying goes prevention is better than cure, the best way is always to use a sunscreen when going outdoor.
