How to get rid of my freckles?

Age Spots Cause

Question by Bronte’Celeste…: How to get rid of my freckles?
ok so i found these remedies and can you tell me if they work!

Make a smooth paste of oatmeal powder and yogurt, apply on the freckles and leave for 20 minutes and wash with cold water.You can do this once or twice a week to see any difference.

FACE: I had pimple scars, discolorations, many freckles, age/sun spots, uneven and sun damaged skin, even moles and this completely got rid of them all.
Use a natural oil – olive oils work really well – and massage over and over quite vigorously (that is the key to it working!) Do with a “to and fro” action not a circular one, using tips, sides and front of fingers. As skin has to adjust, gradually build to a 20 min or more daily treatment(can do in one, two or more sessions) for fastest results).They will fade completely overtime.

If apply to whole face it will give you a completely clear, totally blemish free, healthy and glowing skin. You will not need to use any other treatment or product ever again.

HANDS/ARMS/LEGS: Use a softer type rectangular hand held green pan scrubber, dip in oil and rub repeatedly directly on the spots – reddening of skin is OK but be careful not to overdo.Skin quickly adjusts. you can rub more strongly in a day or two. See distinct fading in one week. Keep it up and they will completely vanish.

If use sunscreen apply on top of the oil, It is equally, if not more, protective and the oil protects from harmful sunscreen ingredients. I am in intense sun for many hours and with one application of even an spf 15 sunscreen I get complete protection and.never burn nor get any sun damage.

i got freckles because i hate wearing sunscreen cause only get tan by burning and then it turns into a tan! we were in tahiti and i was swimming all day and my mom kept bothering me and i was like mom i have to get a tan and i have a bunch of freckles! so i was wondering what remedies (if those don’t work) are there besides lemon juice! I HATE THEM SO DON’T TELL ME THERE CUTE!!!!
yeahhh., trust me i will NEVER EMBRACE THEM!!!!

Best birth control for 14-yr-old daughter?

Age Spots Cause

Question by Nana to TWO: Best birth control for 14-yr-old daughter?
I know she’s way too young to be having sex, but she is, and I need to put her on what would be best for her age and cause the least amount of spotting. Pill? Shot? other?
Of course I’m taking her to the doctor….not only is it the proper thing to have an exam, but I don’t think I can write a script for her myself or give her a shot!

Of course I’ve talked to my kids about morals and saving themselves, and all that jazz.
Even their older siblings have talked to them.

Dippy….I’m not “allowing” this to happen. If you can find a way for me to be with my kids 24/7 please let me know because I’d love to be able to do that.
