Brown spots on skin, especially on the sunlight exposed skin areas such as face, are a nightmare for anyone. When exposed to UV rays, skin produces cells called melanocytes, which in turn produce the dark brown pigment called melanin. Melanin is responsible for skin turning darker in patches. As these brown spots are mostly formed on face, they are commonly known as face spots. Aging people too experience brown spots and therefore these dark spots are also known as age spots. Certain home remedies can remove age spots as well as brown spots on face and give you a glowing skin. Here we give a list of such brown spots removal remedies.
