The reason is, most people don't pay enough attention to this area, so the skin on their neck looks dry and dull . Even worse, there is a buildup of dead skin cells, until they turn black due to not being cleaned regularly.
Not only caused by poor hygiene. Black neck can also appear due to hyperpigmentation a condition in which the skin produces excessive melanin. Usually caused by sun exposure, hormonal changes, or repeated friction on the skin, such as that which occurs in the neck area.

Turmeric contains the compound curcumin which has anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties. Can help reduce inflammation and brighten the skin. Not only that, turmeric helps reduce excessive melanin production, making it suitable for treating hyperpigmentation on the neck.
Wheat flour contains natural whitening agents which can help brighten the skin. Acting as a mild exfoliating agent, wheat flour is able to remove dead skin cells that cause the neck to look dull.
Honey has antibacterial and anti-inflammatory properties that help clean and condition the skin. The presence of antioxidants makes honey claimed to be able to fight skin damage caused by free radicals. Apart from that, honey is believed to maintain skin moisture and provide a moisturizing effect.
Olive oil is rich in vitamin E and antioxidants which help hydrate and rejuvenate the skin. The anti-inflammatory properties of olive oil are effective in reducing inflammation of the skin.
Meanwhile, lemon contains citric acid which has natural whitening properties. Rich in vitamin C, lemon can brighten the skin and reduce excess melanin production. Likewise, granulated sugar is used as a natural exfoliating ingredient which helps remove dead skin cells and stimulates the regeneration of new skin cells.
