FRECKLES:

FRECKLES:

Freckles have a hereditary aspect to it and you are likely to 


inherit it if runs in your family. Freckles are usually of no


 medical consequence and do not cause any problems


. Freckles are sensitive to the UV rays of sunlight and hence 


appear more prominent during or after exposure to sunlight. 


Though freckles could be present all over the body, mostly 


they are found in areas exposed to sun.


Apply lemon juice (mixed with rosewater…equal amount)


 with your fingers on the affected area; lemon juice bleaches


 the dark spots.

Regular use of fruit and vegetable masks such as those 


made with apricots, strawberries, cucumbers will help lighten


freckles.

Heat honey slightly and apply to face, tap face gently with


your fingers. Wash honey off with warm water then rinse 


with cool water. Stir in a little quantity of wheat germ into


 the honey before applying.

Apply castor oil or vitamin E oil at night before going to bed.

Slice a red onion in half and rub on the spots twice daily. 


Continue until the spots fade.


Mix an equal quantity of turmeric and sesame seeds (Til).


 Grind in water and apply to the face.


Increase intake of Vitamin C


Though there is no particular diet or food that will prevent 


the occurrence of freckles on the skin, here are some


 general diet guidelines that will promote a healthy and 


glowing skin. Eat plenty of fresh vegetables and whole 


grains for the vitamins A, B complex and C, all needed for


 healthy skin. Vitamin B5 helps prevent dry skin. It is found 


in milk, eggs, cabbage, wheat germ and nutritional yeast


. The essential fatty acids, found in unrefined, cold-pressed 


vegetable oils such as flax seed, are also important for 


supple, resistant skin. Increase your Vitamin C intake. It 


makes your skin less sensitive to the sun. Foods rich in 


vitamin C include citrus fruits, apples, green onions, black


 and red currant, rosehip tea.

Other suggestions for Freckles


If your skin is prone to freckles, here are some suggestions 


that could help you keep them at bay -

protection factor'. Use it whenever you have to go out in the 


sun.

Add a broad-rimmed hat to your wardrobe and use it when 


out in the sun. The broad rim will shield your face from 


direct sunlight.

maximum.

reapply every two hours in case of heavy perspiration.
