Rinse the area with water and then moisturize your skin once done.

Take a small potato, squeeze the juice out of it and apply the juice on your neck. Now, let it dry and then rinse it all off with lukewarm water. You can always repeat this twice in a day.

You can do this every other day and always make sure to moisturize your skin after you're done with the process.
