Rationale

1. Skin renews itself every 4 weeks. During this time, the old pigmented cells get sloughed off. The skin-whiteners brings the new cells containing less amount of melanin. We will use yogurt to exfoliate and get rid of old dead cells. Yogurt brightens skin tone, evens out skin discoloration, minimize fine lines and wrinkles. It allows deeper penetration by other skin lightening agents.
2. Fresh lime juice is a potent skin bleach. It can be harsh on sensitive skin, and dry it out. We offset some of the negative impact by adding Almond oil
3. The formula contains Turmeric to lighten up the skin. Do not add too much Turmeric than specified, it will dye your skin yellow. Turmeric also reacts with almost all the soap forming a light reddish tinge. Do NOT use soap to wash your face for 24 hours after you have applied any formula that contains Turmeric to your face.
4. Almond oil is the richest natural source of Vitamin E. This is a penetrating skin moisturizer. It helps restructure skin, remove scars of old pimples. It also counters the skin-drying induced by whitening agents such as lime juice.
5. When Vitamin C is applied topically, it reduces melanin and whiten the skin.
6. When Vitamin B3 (Niacinamide) is applied topically, it lightens skin by inhibiting melanosome transfer from melanocytes to keratinocytes.
7. Besan (Chickpea flour) is almost neutral agent added to form a paste holding all the ingredients together. For dry-skin formula, use instant oat meal powdered in a food processor
