Wear gloves while driving to protect from sun. You get cotton gloves in the market. You can also wear scarf to protect your face and head from sun.

Use sunscreen lotion to protect from suns UV rays. You get herbal sunscreen lotions also. Himalaya has good sunscreen lotion.

Use besan and turmeric paste on your hands to lighten the skin color and get rid of tan. Kasturi turmeric works wonders but you can replace it with regular turmeric.
Rub your hands and body with paste of turmeric and malai. Keep it on your body for 30 minutes and wash it off with lukewarm water. Do it regularly, you will see the difference in 1 month.

Very helpful tips. Rubbing sliced potatoes also helps in reducing tan.

A goos sunscreen lotion with SPF 15 is the solution. Ofcourse, a pair of cotton gloves will protect you from further damage.

Avoid suntan for some time it disappears. We always get tanned we go for picnics and they disapper in a weeks time.

So do not panic and let it pass.

Puree 1 tomato and 1 cucumber and mix with lemon juice. Apply this paste all over the suntanned skin. Allow it to dry. Apply the puree again. Repeat for 3 times and allow it dry and then rinse off. Do this for a week and see the difference.
