To keep their skin glowing, people often go for expensive facials or try various treatments available in the market. But skin care needs the right approach, or skin problems can increase instead of easing. To deal with tanning, dark spots, pigmentation or dryness on the face, people use face packs and costly skin care products.

Constant changes in weather, mental stress, lack of nutrients in the body and drinking too little water are among the reasons skin loses its glow and starts looking dull. Once the glow fades, skin can look quite dark and dry. Instead of spending money on expensive treatments every time, skin can also be improved using things already in the kitchen, making it look beautiful and radiant from within.

Here is a simple way to make a vitamin C face pack at home using orange or sweet lime peels. A face pack made this way helps reduce dark spots, pigmentation and dead skin on the face.

To make the face pack, you need juice extracted from sweet lime or orange peels, multani mitti (Fuller's earth), tomato juice, kasturi turmeric and a vitamin E capsule.

The method is simple. First, put the orange or sweet lime peel in a mixer jar and grind it into a fine paste, then extract the juice from it. Take multani mitti in a bowl and mix in this peel juice, tomato juice, kasturi turmeric and a vitamin E capsule to prepare a smooth paste. Once the mixture is well combined, apply it to the whole face with a brush and leave it on for about 20 minutes. Once the face dries completely, wash off the pack with cold water. This face pack can be applied twice a week, which brings relief from increasing skin problems.

It is said that sweet lime or orange peel contains vitamin C and antioxidants, which help reduce tanning, dark spots and pimples on the skin. Orange peel can be used to boost the skin's natural glow. Tomato's properties help close open pores and tighten the skin, while also helping reduce excess oil on it. Kasturi turmeric is said to be effective in reducing acne, spots and irritation.
