Occasionally, in the course of our lives, harmless brown spots may appear on our face, arms, legs, back and hands. In fact, as we grow older, the chances of seeing this brown spots appearing increases, leading many to associate them with growing old. This association with age is the main reason younger folks, or just old folks wanting to remain younger, may at times want to rid themselves of them.

In case you are perplexed at why they are appearing on you and not on others, the reasons could be that you have a reaction to certain blends of light that you are exposed to when you walk into sunlight. No need to call a physician though, because I have listed for your convenience four ways you can do this at home:

They are a natural antiseptic, antibacterial agent and bleaching agent, just to mention a few of their divine qualities. In this occasion the active ingredient in lemons is their citric acid.

Repeat this natural remedy twice a day for about two months to see positive results.

Restore your original skin using Aloe Vera extracts. Aloe Vera is known for its skin healing and skin restoration properties. So it is usually used to treat various skin problems, including age spots or brown spots. Get the plant; boil it in water for 10-20 minutes to extract the active ingredients. Store the solution derived for daily use. Gently rub a little fresh Aloe Vera on the age spots. Let it sit on the skin for about 30 minutes until soaked in. It is so gentle that there is no need to wash it off. However, if you feel it to be sticky, then rinse it off with cold water. Repeat this remedy twice in a day and within a month you will notice old age spots fading away.
