If you’re struggling with stubborn tanning from sun exposure or want to even out your skin tone, the right routine can make all the difference. The de tan cream from Ghar Soaps—Magic Cream with Saffron & Niacinamide—blends natural skincare with targeted tan-reducing power. Enriched with brightening and hydrating ingredients, it’s designed to help fade tan, restore radiance, and keep your skin moisturized without feeling greasy. 

Here are five easy yet impactful ways to use your de tan cream more effectively so you can enjoy brighter, more even-looking skin.

1. Prep Your Skin First

Effective tan removal starts with clean skin. Before applying Magic Cream, gently cleanse your face and body to remove dirt, sweat, and sunscreen residues. Fresh, clean skin allows the de tan cream to absorb fully and work directly on the skin rather than getting blocked by buildup.

Use a mild face wash and lukewarm water to rinse completely. For body areas that hold more sweat and grime (like arms and shoulders), taking an extra moment to cleanse ensures better penetration of the cream’s active ingredients—like saffron, niacinamide, and kojic acid—which work together to brighten and moisturize. 

2. Apply on Slightly Damp Skin

After cleansing, don’t dry your skin all the way. Applying your de tan cream while your skin is still a bit damp helps lock in moisture and boosts absorption. This is especially useful if you have dry or combination skin.

Take small dots of Magic Cream over your face or targeted areas, and then gently massage in circular motions. This technique helps stimulate blood flow, enabling the cream’s brightening and moisturizing ingredients to spread evenly and work deeper. It’s also a gentle form of stimulation that supports exfoliation and encourages a smoother, brighter finish. 

3. Use Consistently — Morning and Night

For visible results against sun-induced tan, consistency matters. Applying your de tan cream twice a day—once in the morning and once before bed—gives your skin regular care and support to fade tanning gradually.

In the morning, applying Magic Cream after cleansing helps protect the skin from environmental stressors. At night, it supports natural repair processes while you sleep. With regular use, your skin will not only feel softer and more hydrated but also show a more even tone over time. 

4. Pair With Sun Protection

Even the best de tan cream can only do so much if your skin is repeatedly exposed to UV rays without protection. After applying Magic Cream in the morning, always follow up with a sunscreen of at least SPF 30 or higher.

Sunscreen shields your skin from new tanning and dark spots, ensuring the progress you’re making with the cream isn’t undone by sun damage. Protecting your skin every day—even when it’s cloudy—sustains your tan-removal efforts and keeps your complexion balanced. 

5. Be Patient and Gentle

Skin takes time to heal and change, especially when fading tan and improving radiance. Your de tan cream isn’t a quick fix; it’s part of a gentle skincare journey. Results can vary from person to person depending on your skin type and the degree of tan you’re addressing.

Avoid harsh scrubbing or over-exfoliating while using the cream, as this can irritate your skin and even slow progress. Instead, stick to a mild routine and let the natural ingredients—like saffron for brightness and niacinamide for tone evenness—work without overwhelming your skin. 

Bonus Tips for Enhanced Results

Exfoliate Weekly

A mild exfoliation once or twice a week helps remove dead skin cells that trap tan. Just make sure to pick a gentle scrub and follow up with your de tan cream to keep moisture balanced.

Hydrate From Within

Drinking plenty of water and eating antioxidant-rich foods helps your skin regenerate from the inside. Combined with topical care like Magic Cream, this enhances overall glow and supports tan-reduction efforts.
