Brilio.net - Doing various outdoor activities often exposes your skin to sunlight. Indeed, sunlight has many benefits for body health.

One of them can make the skin on your feet become striped , which can occur on any part of the body, including the instep.
Even though striped foot skin is not very visible, for those of you who like to wear open footwear, this can be an important problem. Because it can interfere with self-confidence due to uneven skin color. You don't need to worry, this striped foot skin can be overcome by carrying out regular care.
The treatment you can use is to use a scrub made from one drink . This treatment is like that done by beauty vlogger with the Instagram account @anubeauty. By uploading a short video, he uses four natural ingredients, namely black coffee, lemon, baking soda and pure honey. In this scrub concoction, tomatoes are not mixed because of their ability to even out the skin, they can be replaced with lemon.
Why lemon? Because this fruit contains citric acid which has natural whitening properties. Regular use of lemon can help fade white patches on the skin of the feet, due to its ability to reduce excessive melanin production. However, remember, lemon can cause irritation to sensitive skin, therefore it should be mixed with other ingredients or diluted before use.
Meanwhile, black coffee is not just for drinking, it also has extraordinary benefits for the skin. Reporting from healthshots.com, Monday (6/5), the caffeine content in black coffee is believed to stimulate blood circulation and help reduce skin inflammation. When used as a scrub, fine coffee granules can help remove dead skin cells and even out skin tone, so that white spots are disguised.
Baking soda has exfoliating properties that can help remove dead skin cells and stimulate the growth of new cells. Apart from that, baking soda can also help maintain the skin's pH balance. Regular use of baking soda as a scrub can help disguise white spots on the skin of the feet and improve overall skin texture.
Pure honey contains various antioxidant and antimicrobial substances that can help repair and protect the skin. The natural sugar content in honey can also help maintain moisture.
