Brilio.net - Not a few people only pay attention to facial skin care, and ignore other body skin care. One part of the body that often neglects care is the feet. Even though the feet are one of the supporting elements of appearance. The reason is, legs that look evenly bright and smooth are a sign that someone really pays attention to the beauty of their body.
As is known, the feet are a part of the body that is vulnerable to exposure to sunlight, pollution and other free radicals. Well, excessive sun exposure has a bad impact on the skin. Moreover, if you spend too long outside without using sunscreen, this will worsen the appearance of your skin. The reason is, the skin is prone to darkening and sometimes the color looks uneven.
This uneven skin is usually called striped skin. Well, the feet are one part of the body that is susceptible to spots, because they are often exposed to sunlight. This condition occurs because the sun's UV rays will stimulate the formation of excess melanin cells in the skin.
Melanin itself is a natural component of the skin which plays a role in providing color pigment. If melanin production is excessive, the skin will become darker and the color will be uneven. This is enough to reduce self-confidence. Not only caused by exposure to sunlight, the buildup of dead skin cells that are not cleaned optimally can also make the skin on the feet dark and mottled. The buildup of dead skin cells is also called dung.
To overcome this, quite a few people use whitening scrubs on the market. Even though there are natural ingredients that are no less effective and certainly without side effects, you know. Like the upload shared by a TikTok user with the account name @jannattips, which uses 3 natural ingredients. The natural ingredients in question are coffee grounds, granulated sugar and coconut oil.

Contains coffee grounds to whiten dark and striped feet.Coffee contains caffeine and antioxidants which can help skin regenerate faster. Reporting from Beverly Hills MD Cosmeceuticals, coffee can help overcome stubborn dark circles under the eyes and reduce hyperpigmentation in the skin area of the body.
The ingredients in this drowsiness-preventing drink also contain chlorogenic acid (CGA) and melanoidin which have anti-inflammatory effects. This active ingredient is also believed to reduce skin hyperpigmentation. This is why coffee can help overcome spots on the feet.
The benefits of granulated sugar to even out the skin color of the feet.
Granulated sugar is one of the ingredients that you can use to even out striped skin on your feet. The reason is that this natural sweetener can act as a scrub to exfoliate the skin. Sugar can also help rejuvenate the skin and clean up buildup or dead skin cells that accumulate causing spotty skin.
Coconut oil is also effective for treating various skin problems, including moisturizing the skin and treating patchy feet. Coconut oil is known to be able to brighten the skin, disguise dark spots, and even out skin tone thanks to the various vitamins and antioxidants it contains. Even the linoleic acid in it is effective in helping speed up skin regeneration.
With just these three natural ingredients, you can make an effective natural scrub to brighten and even out the color of patchy skin on your feet. This is how to make and use it, as reported by briliobeauty.net from the TikTok account @jannattips, Thursday (16/5).
