Besides this site I am hooked on You Tube. I am like Number Five in the movie Short Circuit (1986) about his craving for "IMPUT".
OK, OK moving on. I found a recipe that lightens sun spots. I tried it and it does seam to be working. Problem is the two ingredients. One medium onion chopped and 1/4 cup apple cider vinegar. Mix them in the blender until it makes kind of a paste. Apply it to the spot with a cotton ball. You don't need to put a lot on and don't get it near your eyes. I forgot this little detail and put it on my nose spots. Ooowwwiiie! Big mistake. My eyes were seriously offended and rebelled with a Noah's flood of tears. I now only use it on my cheeks forehead and my upper lip where the effect is showing best. I have used it three days now. The you tube video says give it Two weeks.

Did I say it stinks? Yes, It really really stinks.

Nancy,
I have never heard of this concoction. My mom always used lemon juice to lighten the dark spots on her hands.

Denise, I too have used lemon juice and it does work! OUCH Nancy! I didn't mean to giggle about the part when it was applied to your nose, but I did ONLY because that would be TOTALLY something I would do!!! ;) Thank you for haring, I must say that once I removed those sun spots from my hands I've kept sunscreen on them and haven't gotten any since! I too shall try on the sides of my face where I still have a few.

You betcha Denise! Put the juice in warm water first thing in the morning to drink, grind the skins for freezing to use to bake later and the remaining juice/pulp for dark spots!! :)
