Hi everyone, I'm new here!

let me give you a little background info about myself first. I've always been pale with some freckles on my arms and shoulders. However, two years ago I was put on three different photosensitizing medications which caused me to get a lot of new freckles on my arms and legs. I have now been off these medications for 6 months, and I am now looking for a way to fade my freckles (or at least lighten them).

I came across this site while looking for reviews of the Diana Stalder papaya kojic acid soap. There is so much information on this site that it was a bit overwhelming, and I thought it would be a good idea to ask you guys what product you think would work best for me. I haven't had much success finding a product because most lightening product are meant for the face, and therefore would be extremely expensive to use on the arms and legs. So, this is what I'm looking for in a product: Something that will fade or lighten my freckles, does not contain hydroquinone, is fairly natural, and that is ok to use on pale skin.

Thanks to anyone that helps me out :)

Anyone?

hmm...


For the body - maybe Belo Essentials Whitening Lotion? (I'm using it for sun damage on my arms)

For the face -something from the Laboratoire Remede (my MIL swears by their stuff!)

serum, paraben-free, green, laboratoire remede - bliss (http://www.blissworld.com/product/remede/treat/laboratoire+rem-egrave-de+intensive+double+s-egrave-rum.do)

It works against age spots, so I'd imagine it would minimize freckling as well.

This is partial guesswork as I'm a caramel brown gal. My MIL is european and pale.
