Precaution For Whitening Face with Help of Vitamin C

1:Increase your Vitamin C intake. This enhances skin color and suppleness. This will help keep your skin strong by maintaining its basic support structure—collagen.
Eating more foods that contain Vitamin C. This includes citrus fruits/juices, strawberries, sweet peppers, tomatoes, cantaloupe, and green peas.

    Taking Vitamin C pills.
  1. If you chose to do it this way, you should take 250 mg/day. Do not go beyond this amount.
  2. Eat more Vitamin A. Since your skin is basically composed of Retinol, which is Vitamin A, this will help keep your skin healthy and strong. If you feel your skin is weak or not tight enough, that usually suggests a lack of Vitamin A.
     
  3. Foods that are high in Vitamin A include nonfat milk, oysters, and egg yolks. You can also get Vitamin   A by eating foods that are high in beta carotene, which will help minimize the effects of sun damage to your skin. These include carrots, watermelon, papaya, tomatoes, or other dark colored produce.
     
  4. Minimize your exposure to sunlight and pollution. Apply sunscreen with a minimum of SPF 15 whenever you are outdoors. UVA/UVB rays are known to be harmful to your skin because they slow down your body's ability to repair damaged skin cells and clear dead ones. Pollution is also a major cause of acne and dull skin tone.
     
  5. Drink 8-10 glasses of water a day. This will help keep your skin from drying out.
     
  6. Exercise daily for 30-60 minutes. Doing so will help you de-stress and let your body detoxify.
     
  7. Mix raw sugar with oil. Scrub this lightly on your face.
Make a face mask. The following options will whiten your skin and improve your complexion.
Cucumber mask. Put a cucumber, 1/4 cup of lemon juice, 5 teaspoons of honey, and 5 teaspoons of milk into a blender. Blend until well mixed. Pour mixture into a bowl. Stir in flour until the mixture gets a thick consistency. Refrigerate for 6 hours. Apply to your face once daily after you shower.
