Wanna get rid of dark upper lip

by Nia
(California)

Im fourteen years old and it looks like i actually have a mustache. I do shave in that area with a razor becuase im too lazy or in a hurry. So please help, i have foundation but it doesnt help and i dont own any 100% shea butter, or concealor.

Answer:

Hi Nia, shaving does contribute to darkening of upper lip. Any of our skin whitening creams can help lighten the discoloration. Apply once a day at bedtime and wear sunscreen at daytime. Soon as you see an improvement, reduce usage to 1-2x a week only for maintenance. Sunscreen, however, should remain a daily in your regimen to prevent further darkening.

Hope that helps. Good luck, dear. :)
