ellawify: Thank you, dear. I'm glad to hear it. Sorry about the dark inner thighs but it can be remedied. Like I mentioned earlier, lime/lemon juice and honey are great natural lighteners. Making a thin mixture of honey,lime juice and coconut oil (lime is more accessible than lemon here and they serve similar functions) will gradually lighten the dark parts if applied consistently. Lime juice is a natural lightener and exfoliates (removes the dead, darker skin cells) Honey is a great moisturizer and also promotes brighter skin Coconut oil heals hyperpigmentation, has antibacterial properties and promotes moisture retention What to do; Squeeze the juice of half a lime, add 2 to 3 drops of honey and a few drops of coconut oil. Apply to the areas you wish to lighten. Let it stay on for up to 30 minutes before you wash it off. It may be ideal to do this before bath in the morning.....or whenever is convenient for you. Do this at least once every day. You should notice significant difference in a week. Note: When the thighs rub together, it causes the inner thighs to get darker. The lack of "breathing space" and constant friction chafe the skin and cause hyperpigmentation. If you carry considerable weight in your thighs, consider losing some of it to prevent the occurrence of darkening again. Wear cotton underwear and clothing that allow your thighs access to air as much as possible. Hope this was helpful, dear? Keep me posted on your progress 1 Like |

babysmart: You're too kind. Thank you, dear Whoa...please, do not use lime juice alone. Its juice is too acidic for the delicate skin of the face. The resulting effect is soreness and tender skin. Consider diluting it with water and letting it stay on only for a very short while. Also, lime juice works as a CLEANSER not a scrub. Anything used as a scrub usually contains small granules that literally scrub the skin. A quicker and less complicated option I discovered for homemade facial scrub is BAKING SODA Lol. I know it may sound pretty unusual. But it is edible and made from natural salts and safe for the skin...which, to me, is a pass. I've been using this easier alternative for a month now. The baking soda I got came in a bottle and was sold at #150 which is ridiculously cheap compared to commercial facial scrubs. How to; Start with a cleansed face. Pour a little amount of baking soda on your palm and wet it with some water. Apply on your face. You may choose to scrub your face using your fingertips or a clean makeup pad. Once your face is evenly scrubbed, rinse. Apply a moisturizer. ....and you're done. It's faster and simpler than my previous alternative and it's easy on your pocket too Note: One notable advantage of lime juice is that because of its high acidic content, it works great in drying out pimples. Apply a little bit of lime juice using a cotton bud (for easy application) or cotton wool only on the pimples at morning and before bed. You'll be surprised and impressed by how quickly they'll be gone |

babysmart: Lol. No, they aren't I nearly bought baking powder by mistake too. Baking soda literally contains only baking soda. Baking powder has baking soda as one of its ingredients among others. |

Hello sweets, It's been a very long time. Sorry, I've been working on a few things. I'm pleased to announce that my website is ready: colouredcoilycontent. This site would cover 4 major areas: *Natural Hair Care *Natural Remedies to Skin Care *Body Fitness *Psychosocial Well being I started it about 2 days ago. There is currently a new post about learning the basics of natural hair care. It is a very simplified detailed post with instructive diagrams. Feel free to ask as many questions as you want in the comment section and I'll be sure to get back to you. I wish everyone a very lovely week. Warm regards. 3 Likes 1 Share |
