Suntan is the major skin problem in summer season. Tanning is usually
caused when the skin is overexposed to sunlight (owing to the harmful
UVA and UVB rays). Upon exposure to sunlight, skin produces a brown
colored pigment, called melanin that provides dark color or tanned look
to the skin. After getting a sun tan, it is not easy to bring your skin
back to a normal state but with patience and care it can be done. You

the effect of sun tan. Instead of using chemical laden cosmetic
products for instant tan removal, you can try some natural treatments.
