In a small bowl, combine the freshly extracted onion juice with the juice of half a lemon. Stir the mixture until it’s well combined.
Apply to the Affected Areas:
Soak a cotton ball or pad in the onion and lemon mixture, and gently dab it onto the areas with age spots. Make sure to cover all the spots thoroughly.
Leave It On:
Allow the mixture to sit on your skin for 15–20 minutes. You may feel a slight tingling sensation, which is normal as the ingredients work to exfoliate and lighten the skin.
Rinse and Moisturize:
After 20 minutes, rinse your skin with lukewarm water and pat it dry. Apply a gentle moisturizer to keep your skin hydrated and prevent dryness.
How Often to Use:
For best results, apply this mixture to your age spots 2–3 times a week. Over time, you should notice the spots becoming lighter and less visible. Be patient, as natural remedies can take several weeks to show significant results.
Important Tips:
Sun Protection: Lemon juice can make your skin more sensitive to sunlight, so it’s important to apply sunscreen or avoid sun exposure after using this treatment.
Do a Patch Test: Before applying the mixture to a larger area, do a patch test on a small section of your skin to ensure you don’t have any allergic reactions or sensitivity to the ingredients.
Avoid the Eye Area: Keep the mixture away from your eyes, as both onion and lemon juice can cause irritation.
Benefits of Onion and Lemon for Skin:
Fades Age Spots: The combination of sulfur in onions and citric acid in lemons helps lighten dark spots and reduce pigmentation naturally.
