A naturally white and glowing face is still a dream for women. But unfortunately, getting your dream face is not easy. The reason is, each person's skin color depends on genetics.
Therefore, whitening your face does not mean changing your skin color, but what it means is brightening your skin so it doesn't look dull. Actually, the epidermis or skin layer continues to make new skin cells every 14-21 days. If dead skin is not exfoliated properly, the face will become dull.
This dullness makes the skin appear darker than usual. Other factors such as sun exposure can also make skin dark because when exposed, the skin releases melanin. There are various ways to brighten your face that you can do. Even though there are many instant methods to choose from, in fact this step is not necessarily safe for the skin.
Instead of brightening a dull face , you might actually get new skin problems because it is not suitable for using it. So, as an alternative, you can brighten your dull face by using ingredients you have at home.
As shared by the TikTok account @ayur_officialpage on (17/1). In the video, the account owner shares tricks for brightening a dull face using only 4 kitchen ingredients. The ingredients are egg yolk, yoghurt, honey and lemon juice.

Egg yolk is very beneficial for the skin. This is because it contains natural vitamins, nutrients, protein and fatty acids. The benefit of egg yolk for the face this time is that it can be used to brighten the skin. Regular use of egg yolk can brighten the skin as well as overcome problems such as sagging skin and dull looking skin.
Yoghurt is also a kitchen ingredient that can be used to brighten dull skin. This is thanks to the lactic acid content in yogurt which works by inhibiting the production of the tyrosinase enzyme.
Tyrosinase is a type of enzyme that is responsible for producing melanin, the pigment that makes skin darker. When melanin production is inhibited, dull dark skin can change to look bright and healthy.
Likewise, honey not only treats the signs of premature aging, honey masks are also known to be able to brighten and whiten facial skin. This benefit comes from the vitamin E content in it and can be more effective when combined with lemon.
Lemon water is also considered useful in naturally brightening the skin and helping reduce black spots on the face. The benefits of lemon water for the face come from ingredients such as citric acid, malic acid and ascorbic acid, which have skin lightening properties.
After knowing the benefits of each ingredient, let's look at how to make the mask below.
