All of us like to bask in the sun. What a serene and wonderful pastime it is to lounge at the beach or the park during summer! Summer brings along a lot of fun and excitement but it is also accompanied with the ugly suntan to the exposed parts of our body. At times, even the expensive cosmetics fail to serve the purpose. One can always stick to the natural treatments for any aid. Use of turmeric as an anti-tan has been proved to a great boon. With good care and patience, you can get your skin back to its normal tone.
