Whatever we eat or put on our face goes into our blood stream and may have effect on our body likewise. Therefore, answer to the dark spots should be treating them with pure natural ingredients & remedies. It may take a longer time for them to vanish but you will feel relieved that no chemical has been used to treat dark spots.

In India, for ages our grandmothers and their mothers have used all natural ingredients sourced from plants and nature from tulsi, to neem, to orange peel to multani mitti, not to forget turmeric, sandalwood to treat dark spots. Our generation is busy searching chemical products for lightening dark spots. 

Here are some home made natural face packs for dark spots:

Besan turmeric pack :

●Take half tea spoon besan

●Add a pinch of turmeric 

●Add unadulterated raw milk

●Few drops of rose water 

●Apply for 10-15 minutes 

●Wash with lukewarm water. 
Besan is known to lighten skin and so is turmeric. Raw milk and rose water also have properties of lightening dark spots.

Wild turmeric & mulethi pack:
●Take half tea spoon mulethi powder 

●Add little wild turmeric to it.

●Add rose water, apply for 10 minutes. 

●Wash, pat dry.
Wild turmeric is known for lightening dark spots, pigmentation. It is widely used in ayurvedic face packs. Mulethi or licorice is also known to fade dark spots.

Rose petal powder & saffron pack:
●Take half spoon rose petal powder.

●Add 2-3 saffron to it.

●Add raw milk. 

●Mix with rose water. 

●Apply 10 minutes, wash.
Rose petal powder lightens blemishes. It brightens skin. Rose has antioxidants which slow aeging. Roses have antibacterial properties. Saffron is known for brightening. Raw milk and rose water are known for fading blemishes too.

Also unadulterated raw milk helps in cleaning and lightening dark spots. Milk has lactic acid which help in lightening the skin. You can add a pinch of turmeric to it. Turmeric besides being antiseptic, has skin lightening properties. 

In India turmeric has been used in face packs and for skin lightening and for fading dark spots. I have been using it since 12-13 years of age. Even during marriage ceremony turmeric is used to enhance the glow of bride and bridegroom. Turmeric is applied to the whole body of the couple's getting married.  It is a ritual in india. It imparts glow, makes skin texture better.

You can use these packs daily or alternately for visible results. Naturally treating dark spots is just simple but you need be patient since it takes time but if you are a no chemicals on face person than fade them naturally.
