:( :confused: hi.. I am 21years old... I am jamaican and I have a light brown complexion but because I had acne when I was younger I am left with the dark brown spots what can I use to get rid of them.. something safe... and also methods to help the stop of acne pimples?? :confused: :confused: :(

I've used kojic acid soaps and creams to fade acne and freckles and melasma marks on my face... if your skin is very sensitive.. the soaps may be too harsh but try a face cream with kojic acid. This is also good followed with a cream with arbutin/bearberry/uva ursi extract (they're all the same thing but I think shiseido has a patent on arbutin creams.. ) so I mention all names for it... hope this helps

Thanks BORICUA1 FOR YOUR reply.. but do u know where I can get the kojic acid soap?

Are these products available at the health store?

Possibly... but I got mine on Ebay... there are two philipino ladies that sell the soaps, cream and lotions... I think one is called a shopaholic's bargain... but if I'm not correct... search under... skin bleaching... on the eBay product search and the stalder/v belo (Same company) will come up...
