My chest, neck, stomach and upper arms are about two to three shades lighter, and my lower forearms, back and butt are like two to three shades darker. CRAZY! How can I even this stuff?

Viola
sorry, post some pics that match your skin and i'll see if i can put it in
ok how this, just finished it
Thanks a lot of that. I have done peels already. I haven't on my back or butt or anything, it's too hard to, but I have on my arms. I just started using Retin A and HQ 4%, I'm just hoping this'll work.Golden Girl wrote:Dominicana wrote:This is my face and its exact complexion.

The places that you mentioned that are darker in color usually contains more melanin in those regions. I would suggest exfoliating by doing a series of lactic acid peels weekly 40-45% for starters in order to help remove any dead skin cell build up. Also, these areas such as the butt and back the skin is usually much thicker versus the neck and face. The forearms are usually more exposed to the sun, also exfoliate this area as well to help remove some of the tan. Do this for about 3-4 weeks. For your forearms be sure to cover with sunblock spf 50+ (I usually apply and reapply during the day. Wearing long sleeve shirts can also help minimize the tanning as well.

i have a question, which do you find harder, lighening or maintenance?
Thanks for crossing your fingers with my new regimen. I mean, is the finger crossing a need, like, this combination usually doesn't work, or are you just wishing me lick?Golden Girl wrote:Dominicana wrote:Thanks a lot of that. I have done peels already.

You mean difficult to apply to? What do you normally use to apply it? I know it can be difficult to apply to the back region, that would be one of the last areas that I plan to lighten. I'll have my fingers crossed for you as well with the hq/ra.
