Brilio.net - A dull and dark face often makes someone feel less confident about their appearance. Most people definitely want to appear with bright and glowing facial skin. Therefore, it is not surprising that now many people are looking for ways to whiten a dull face.

The main causes of dull skin are sun exposure, pollution, and smoking. Behind this there are other factors, namely lack of sleep, unhealthy eating patterns, lack of water, signs of aging, and use of unsuitable beauty products.

Don't worry, this dull face can be overcome in various ways. One of them is a facial mask treatment made from only three kitchen ingredients. So, the ingredients you can use are rice flour, turmeric and lemon.

These three kitchen ingredients have their respective benefits. Rice flour contains amino acids and vitamin B complex which can help repair and moisturize the skin. Apart from that, the enzyme and antioxidant content in it can also help remove dead skin cells, maintain the skin's pH balance and brighten facial skin.

Meanwhile, turmeric contains the compound curcumin which has anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties which can help reduce inflammation of the skin, reduce redness and irritation, and increase collagen production for firmer and more supple skin. Turmeric can also help brighten and improve the appearance of dull, lackluster skin.



The last ingredient, namely lemon, is rich in vitamin C and citric acid which can help clean facial skin from dirt, oil and dead skin cells. Apart from that, the antioxidant content in it can help remove blemishes and acne scars, as well as brighten the skin and maintain facial skin moisture.

However, you need to pay attention, you must use lemon for facial skin care carefully and don't use it too often. This is because lemon contains acid so it can irritate the skin.

So how do you use these three ingredients for a mask? For this, you can follow the tutorial shared by a TikTok user @food_skin_life, on Tuesday (28/3).

"Can it be used for black spots and acne?" asked the account @trisha08.

"Yes you can, but don't add lemon when you use something for your face," he explained.

Can rice flour whiten dull and dark skin?

Rice flour is not only used as a cooking or kitchen ingredient. The reason is, this type of flour has a number of ingredients and benefits for skin beauty. Rice flour is known to contain B complex vitamins, such as vitamins B1, B2, and B3, which are important for maintaining healthy skin. Vitamin B helps stimulate the regeneration of new skin cells and increases blood circulation, thereby helping brighten dull and dark skin.

Not only that, rice flour also contains antioxidants, such as vitamin E and ferulic acid. This content is able to protect the skin from damage caused by free radicals. The presence of antioxidant properties helps keep skin healthy and bright, and reduces the appearance of signs of premature aging. The ability of rice flour to absorb natural oils can indirectly reduce oil production, prevent clogging of pores, and minimize the appearance of acne and dullness.

The smooth texture makes rice flour brighten the skin.

Rice flour has a fine and soft texture, so it can be used as a natural exfoliant to remove dead skin cells from the surface of the skin. By regularly exfoliating using rice flour, this can help remove layers of dead skin that cause skin to look dull, thus making skin look brighter and fresher.

On the other hand, the nutritional content in rice flour helps stimulate the production of collagen and elastin in the skin. By stimulating the production of collagen and elastin, rice flour can help improve skin texture and reduce the appearance of hyperpigmentation, making skin look brighter and more even.
