The spots on the face can appear for various reasons:  the sun, pregnancy, oral contraceptives or acne, among others. Here are some simple and inexpensive recipes to make your own homemade creams and get rid of those annoying stains.

First of all, it is worth noting that, to avoid skin blemishes, it is best to eliminate the cause that originates them.
