I'm a white female and I've had freckles all my life. I'm now 26 and I'm trying to desperately to get rid of them. Any suggestions?

Why get rid of freckles? They are so cute

I'd check with a Dermatologist. There are many new products and techniques today to help you a little. There is also a make-up product that covers them all day long and is water resistant and in three different shades. But really freckles are so cute and there are a lot of guys that will like you just the way you are, so I would not change a thing unless it psychologically stresses you out. Good Luck. P.S. My freckles stayed with me till I was about 27, then all of a sudden faded into nothing and I did not try anyting to get rid of them.

Thanks for the advice. I know freckles are cute but sometimes it's a pain. I don't like wearing too much make up. The guys love my freckles.. it does help being pretty. :D

So why would you want to get rid of them? There's an old saying - "there is a lid for every pot", and it's been proven as you are cute and popular, so quit wanting to change yourself. Wish you all the best!.

Hi,
I agree with seeing a Dermotologist. A professional can give you good advice. Besides, if you go with buying creams, lotions, etc, you might wind up spending more money than the cost of a doctor visit!
Personally, I like freckles.

I'm thirteen and I have a lot of freckles too =[
and they are definitely not cute on me.
I think they make me look ugly, I don't know how to get rid of them without purchasing expensive pills.

I have lots of freckles so I know what you mean.
And everywhere I go I ALWAYS get compliments
Even if I don't think they are that pretty... its probably not that they are ugly but that you are tired of them
Because when I was 10 I loved having them but the next year I got tired of them and wanted to get rid of them.
But I didn't because I started liking them again I don't know why I just did plus you never yous might fade as you get older(:

Consult your dermatologist. You can get freckles bleached, but not removed. You can use makeup like a light foundation to cover them up.
