Warm some honey mildly. Apply to the affected areas and tap with the finger tips. Once the honey is dried into the skin, wash it out with some warm water, and then rinse the face completely with cold water.

Sour milk is another useful remedy. Wash the face with sour milk daily. The lactic acid in the milk promotes peeling of the skin gently while ensuring there is no irrtiation or dryness.

Applying Vitamin E oil or odourless castor oil before sleeping at night helps freckles vanish.

Apply a mixture of ground yellow mustard in milk at night before sleeping. Wash out first thing in the morning with cold water.

The regular use of fruit peels and juices like cucumber, apricot, strawberry and currants on the face will help lighten the skin and fade freckles out effectively.

Lemon juice has been known to be the best remedy. Tried and tested, it can never fail you. Application of fresh lemon juice on the affected areas will help lighten the skin and cause freckles to disappear the quickest.

Apply some sour cream of the face. Make sure you do not wash it out completely. Instead, use a soft tissue to wipe it off. Top it with a mild moisturiser.
