Curd and haldi
Add a little haldi (turmeric) to a small bowl of chilled curd and beat it until it makes a thick paste. Cover your hands with this paste and wash off thoroughly with cold water after 20 minutes. Do this just before your bath every day for 2 weeks and you will soon see results.
Lemon juice
Mix the juice from 3-4 lemons in a large bowl of warm water. Soak your hands in this solution for 20-25 minutes and wash off with cold water. For very dark stains you can apply 3-4 tablespoons of the juice directly on the tanned area and wash off after 20 minutes. Repeat this 2-3 times a week after your bath for the best results. Just a word of caution: lemon juice can dry your hands and moisturize them thoroughly afterwards.
Cucumber
Mix together 2 tablespoons of fresh cucumber juice with 1 tablespoon of lemon juice and a pinch of turmeric to form a paste. Apply this on your hands and wash it off with cold water after 30 minutes. Repeat this every night for 2 weeks and you will soon see the tan disappear.
