Thank you so much…see, thats the problem… i dont want to become fair as in fair… i am almost that.. the darkness around the mouth, the outer shell of the nose…thats where i have to do something…
I have nobody to give me such beauty tips:teary1:

Re: Wanna become FAIR

Do you mean as in even out your skin tone? Just use Palmers Cocoa Butter or Bio Oil; they work wonders for fading scars and giving you that healthy glow ^^

Depends on where you live, but you can get them at supermarkets like Asda.

Re: Wanna become FAIR

Adeeba, You should visist a drematologist for this. Household beauty tips would do little to help this problem. South Asians like us are very prone to hyper pigmentation. First of all start apllying a sunscreen (one designed for babies are the best or use an oil free or sensitive skin one like the one by Neutrogena). You need to reapply every 2 hours if you are outside in teh sun.My hyper pigmentation was resolved by getting chemical skin peels by a dermatologist. Do let the doctor know that you have sensitive skin. Good luck and let us know how it goes!! Where are you based?

Re: Wanna become FAIR

^ Did your skin turn brown after the peels and actually shed?

Re: Wanna become FAIR

adeeba dear even i have darkness around my mouth but do i give a damn? no!! people still call me pretty etc... people accept me and i accept me for who i am! you should too! :)

Re: Wanna become FAIR

No, it did not! I think it depends upon teh intensity of the peels, but I did see a noticiable difference.

Home remedies will work but they need time! U shud change u're title..to unevern skintone!

Orange peel powder, wild turmeric and lemon juice
Tomato juice, wild turmeric
Cinnamon and honey

Peels cud cause furthur pigmentation and patchy skin..so I wudn't advise that. Microderm can help though...

Re: Wanna become FAIR

i have darkness around my chin and nose area whats the best thing to use gina~

red sandalwood powder, wild turmeric powder and lemon juice! Just make it into a paste..and leave on for 20 mins

Gina can cinnamon and honey be used for this area?

Do you add equal quantities make a paste and leave on for 20mins?

Could this be used all over face or just dark areas?

JUST the dark pigmented area's do not use it all over the face! if u experience discomfort..wash it off and apply cold milk!

Yes u make it into a paste...

Re: Wanna become FAIR

I used the lemon and turmeric for years. Only caused a 5% difference. I had a very dark pigmented lower back and went to see a highly qualified dermatologist for it. She prescribed the peels and what a difference. I was amazed.

Re: Wanna become FAIR

'no marks' cream is also very effective.

Home remedies are mild.. and seldom have side-effects..peels work on deeper pigmentations.. and can have serious side-effects!

Whats a sanwalli?
