Are you scared of venturing outside in skirts? Or do you only wear skirts that cover your knees? Well, you aren't alone. Many women shy away from showing their knees due to how dark the knees can look.

Not to worry, if you know how to get rid of dark knees at home, it'll be much easier for you to achieve the result you want.

All you got to do is read on and follow this home beauty tip to keep dark knees at bay.

An even skin tone all over the body is desired by everyone. And yet, not many of us manage to achieve it. Most people have just accepted the fact that knees would tend to be darker than the rest of our bodies.

The skin on the knees is usually thicker and has more folds than the rest of the body. The skin here also does not have any oil glands, hence being drier than other parts of the body.

Additionally, many other factors contribute to darker knees like poor hygiene, frequent rubbing, genetic factors, or skin that is too dry.

So, try this home remedy using baking soda, lemon and sugar to get rid of dark knees for good! Have a look.

Ingredients:
1 teaspoon of baking soda
1 teaspoon of powdered sugar
1 entire lemon

Method Of Preparation & Application:
Mix the powdered sugar and baking soda together. Then, squeeze the juice from an entire lemon into this. Make sure you remove all the seeds from this.

Add some water to the mix if it looks clumpy. The texture of this should be like a paste. This is the best way to get rid of dark knees at home.

Do this every day to get fairer knees in no time. Scrub the area with this mix for 5 to 10 minutes, and then wash it off. Remember to moisturise the area well after usage.

Lemon juice acts as a really strong natural bleaching agent, thereby lightening the skin from the area, while sugar sloughs away dead skin cells, without being too harsh. Baking soda also helps exfoliate the area.
