I used to have perfect skin in terms of tanning, it would be slightly tanned over the summers and even that would go away naturally as winter approached.
Now, my skin is bored of being in a similar color palette through out the year! Any time I go out anywhere I get tanned in all different shades!
Remember my fight with tanning post South Africa and Goa, Read here http://www.crazyindianwedding.com/2013/07/my-fight-with-tanning-using-home.html
Well, we are back from Bangkok and Pattaya and my skin has changed colors again! Even our families are now confused, because, even if we go out anywhere in a group its just me and my husband who come back in a new tanned look and nobody else.
Every time the type of tanning is also different! South Africa was more undertone-changing-tan (read the above mentioned article), Goa was all over Indian tanned and Thailand is patchy tanned (yucky).
I am a bit guilty of not using sunscreen all the time but even if people who are with us don't they don't get as tanned as we do :/
Wedding seasons here and I want my skin back.
Help?
PS: A few days back I went to the market for like 10 min I was wearing a suit and my chunni was hanging in the normal way, like it makes a U-shape in the front. When I came back I noticed my hands got a little tanned and you could actually see the untanned skin making a circular pattern of the chunni! *facepalm*

How was your holiday??
ReplyDeletethats sad.. your skin has become so sensitive to sun, try haldi, malaai, lemon face pack. I have heard tomatoes also help in reducing tan. And do consult a skin specialist, they would recommend you a sun protection creme or lotion as per your skin type.
help I have red dots all over my face :( looks like mosquito bites but dnt knw *Crying like hell*
ReplyDeleteDid they appear overnight? how long have you had them?
Deleteits been three days now and the number is increasing :( more prominent on cheek n nose :(
Deletethey are like mosquito bites? Best to consult a doctor asap! Could also be 'katmal'. They appear at night around 3am-4am, I had them once, got bite marks like mosquito bites that wont go away for 2-3 days. I set up an alarm for 2:30am got up and killed them. Best to consult a doctor asap.
Delete:O khatmal will do it today asap then.... thanks for your help :)
