This fruit also contains enzymes that combat wrinkles and prevent premature aging. Plus, both papaya and lemon have skin-lightening properties that reduce the appearance of acne scars and blemishes.

1. Take ½ cup of blended ripe papaya pulp.

Loaded with vitamins, minerals and amino acids, aloe vera is another superb ingredient for your skin. In fact, it is also used in various cosmetics. It helps fade dark spots and blemishes, and is effective for reducing a suntan.

Green tea, a storehouse of antioxidants, is also a skin-nourishing ingredient that gives you a clearer complexion and fights the signs of premature aging. Plus, both ingredients fight acne and pimples, thanks to their anti-inflammatory and antibacterial properties.

1. Put 2 to 4 tablespoons of aloe vera gel in a blender.
