How to: Lighten Dark Areas on Skin

9/10 girls have this problem. We have dark elbows, knees which prevents us from wearing cute dresses. These are my three favourite ways to lighten the dark areas on my skin.

1. Use Papaya Soap

Papaya soap is natural and using it regularly will help to lighten your skin. Use it at least twice a day, once in the morning and once at night. Keep your skin moisturized because it can dry your skin out. You can find it at Al Hadaya Centre.

1. Use a lemon juice, yogurt mix

Take some lemon juice with some yogurt and mix it up together and apply it to your skin. It acts as a mild bleaching solution which will safely lighten your skin. Pay attention to any irritation and stop using if your skin is very sensitive. Use aloe vera gel afterward to keep your skin moist and hydrated.

3. Use milk to lighten and moisturize your skin

Pour some milk into a bowl, grab a rag or towel and dip it into the milk, then apply to your skin. Milk is a natural skin lightener and doesn't dry out your skin. It's not going to happen overnight but with regular use, you will see some slight results.
