    How can I lighten my knuckles and toes?
    See guys... I need answers as in ASAP.You need to save my soul!
    I have been trying to lighten my knuckles and toes for a while now but these darn toes and knucks won't obey!
    Naturally,I have always had pretty dark knuckles.But as I lightened,they are kind of too obvious... not too bad though.So I have come here to ask for help.I want QUICK ACTION.I want to see results in like 10 days.
    I have read some previous threads but... nah,didn't do much.I need 2010 answers!
    Please don't tell me to use MELADERM-it works but its as slow as a snail.Lightened my knuckles like .01 shade per week!
    Give me answers please-preferably, stuff I can buy online.
    Thank you... and waiting!

    Lol @ "the save my soul" part.

    I don't know how 2010 you would consider this but when I had problems lightening my feet, as a strange as this may sound a Jamaican friend of mine told me to use the wrap method because it promotes absorption. And it really did work.

    Since you're trying to lighten your knuckles and toes you'll need 4 plastic shopping bags, your choice of product, a pair of thick gloves and thick ankle socks. Before you go to sleep at night, apply the product to your hands and feet. Put each of your feet and each of your hands into a plastic bag. Put the ankle socks and gloves over the bags.

    Not going to lie, the first night its extremely uncomfortable... but if you stick it out, you'll get results. I saw results in about 2 weeks.

    Lolz! No problem. And I'm sure you probably figured but remember to tie the bags on your feet and hands after you put on the shopping bags. And please keep me posted on your results. If I find anything less obscure, ill definitely let you know!

    Good Luck!

    And someone please save the other half of her soul! Hahaha.

    Yellow, which lightener did you find most effective for the hands and feet area with the plastic bag technique? Thanks

    To be honest with you, I only used a neoprosone and movate mix. I found out after the fact that these lighteners weren't safe, so I wouldn't tell u to use them. If you have a lightener that is working for the rest of your body, use the same on your hands and feet with the bag method. Using the plastic bags is supposed to just increases that area's rate of absorption. So I'm sure whatever you're currently using should be fine

    And when the temptation arises to take it off, fight it! Lol.
    Also, upon waking up... try to leave the bags on as long as humanly possible.

    Good Luck!

    I have tried this method before, the feet I can kind of handle but covering the hands is very annoying and YES it is so tempting to take it off.

    Please people don't try this method on your face! It will literally 'take your soul'! Lol jokes aside, I'm actually waiting to save up to get a holy grail whitening cream and supplement, but in the mean time you can mix l-glutathion powder from the capsules ( powdered) with vitamin c powder mix it with a pinch of black pepper which acts like a penetration enhancer mix all this in rosehip oil or something to give it emulsification, perhaps your usual cream, and then you can wrap your hands in clingfilm, like you would as a body wrap.. let me know how you get on with it...

    @Yellowannabe lol! I know, it wouldn't be a pretty site! Yes let me know how you get on with the glut+vit c cling film wrap method? I'm trying it on my feet today ( as it's the weekend) and will walk around the house with feet tied in cling film! Lol
