Name: Freckle face Country: U.S.A. Comment: you people are crazy. freckles are adorable. ON EVERYONE. and its disrespectful to try and get rid of them Name: Charlie Country: United Kingdom Comment: I have freckles, HATE them so much. people wipe my make up off when i wear loads, i dont look like a cake face but just round about half way there. I hate them and it costs a fortune buying loads of foundation to cover them. Any easy way of doing itt? Name: dont care Country: Other Comment: You Mind thing look fun with freckel more one not ugl have freckel on my face do come up Name: villy Country: Australia Comment: I have heaps of freckles, they were really noticable when i was a kid but then as i got older they faded, even the really dark brown ones and now you can barely notice them. But i got heaps on my arms and they look terrible. To get rid of freckles you can fade them with lemon juice but it fades your skin aswell and doesnt work that well. You can bleach them, laser them (it costs a bit but they will disappear - very effective), freeze them or get a chemical peel.

Didn't anybody get it?? Name: freckle face Country: South Africa Comment: freckles r gorjus! dont try change them! Name: freckle cover up Country: Australia Comment: i found something that WORKS!! its a breakthrough in modern technology.. i am a scientist working for the industrialisation of cosmetics, creams and other various treatments. in recent discoveries we have found that with a compilation of natural remedies and ingredients, freckles, age spots and uneven skin tone can be dramatically softened and with continuous use over a two month period flawless skin can be obtained. the natural ingredients are a mixture of tea tree oil, tomato extract (acidity), ACAaddictives, sea salt (exfoliation), and escence of hound feces (vitamins). mix these ingredients together in with a 1:1 ratio, but only add a few drops of tea tree oil. them heat to comfortable temperature (dont allow mixture to get too hot or skin may be burn), and then apply as you would a mask and allow to dry for 15 mins as it works its miracles. then to gain full benefit, when washing off with warn water, work in circular motions over skin for a light exfolication to remove dead skin cells. to finish off slash skin with cold water to close pores and apply mousturiser (preferably a fading lotion). you should start to see results within 7-10 days. hope this helps. it changed my life. cheers! =] Name: live to surf n love those freckles Country: Australia Comment: Yo peoples.. surfing is the awesome-est sport ever. i have heaps of freckles they are frikkin freckles.. but who gives two tosses? not me.. coz im totally HOT yay lol and i have freckles everywhere.. most others dont even realise i have them!

But it's really not that bad. Just be yourself! Name: Julia Country: U.S.A. Comment: Freckle scattered on your face look cut but I have more the 70 on my face no joke! I've tried sour cream, honey, cucumber, lemon. It just faded them a little you still can see them. The only reason I don't like freckles is because they make it hard to wear make up. They might look nice with a tan but when you have them all over your face that all people see! The might look cute with those blue eyes but when you have hazel eyes thy look horrid. It not that I'm sensitive about them I like them on my arm just not on my face. what should I do? Name: freckle lover... Country: U.S.A. Comment: i am covered in freckles & love everyone of them. when i was little my mom told me that my freckles were angel kisses!!! :) so i never saw them as bad. I also have never been subjected to negative comments about them. they are part of me and i love them. i have so many that in the summer i do not have to wear any makeup. if i am lucky the same goes for winter too. we should all be happy with what we have got. it is a natural beauty!!! Name: felitex Country: India Comment: There are two basic types of freckles - Ephelides - These are flat red or light-brown spots that typically appear during the summer months and fade away in the winter. These types of freckles could be hereditary. herbals like felitex can reduce these. Lentigines - Lentigines may be small tan, brown or black spot that is darker than an ephelide. This does not fade in winter. This is also a genetic condition. herbals like felitex have little effect on these types of freckles.

Do you even have lives, i mean seriously feritex to get rid of your freckles. you should be excited about your life and stop going on and on about your freckles. Luckly for me i dont have the whole freckle problem because im freckle free. Get a life and stop worrying about your freckles cuz its retarded. Name: Jackson Country: U.S.A. Comment: To anyone who hates their freckles....My girlfriend hated her freckles and bright red hair as a little girl. She got teased a lot when she was young. Now she is grown into a beautiful woman. I love her freckles, they make her different looking then ordinary girls. Some people think that freckles are awesome looking, like I do. Don't worry about people teasing you because you look a little different then most people. Be a good person yourself and eventually the jerks in your life will fade away. Be comfortable with yourself others will see your confidence. Name: theresa Country: U.S.A. Comment: i am 11 and i have freckles on mi face and arms i hav heard abot this new thind 2 get rid of freckles its called felitex it takes 2-4 weeks for the freckles to start goin away it really works if anybody knows any other way plz tell me Name: vansack Country: Iran Comment: what the heck is in felitex anyways i looked at the site and they don't say i dont want to pay the money they are charging i want to find out whats in it and get it for 20 bux Name: bindi Country: Australia Comment: stop trying to hide your freckles with make-up, it'll make your face look very cakey and pretty much just ugly. embrace your freckles instead of trying to hide them, and focus on another feature like your eyes, apply masacra and eyeliner. but if you are really insecure about your freckles try lemon juice everyday day and night for 15minutes then wipe them off (not rinse). you should get results after a week or so, but lemon juice will only lighten your freckles not get rid of them. :) Name: kyly Country: India Comment: felitex is life saver. my freckles are fading after 6 days of popping these things. Name: kyly Country: India Comment: felitex is life saver. my freckles are fading after 6 days of popping these things. Name: freckly112 Country: Barbados Comment: Do people actually think freckles look good? it always seems like since i hate them everyone else hates them too, and some people have cute ones, that are just sprinkled on thier face, but i have them all over my shoulders, and they look so ugly! I just want to find something that is safe on the skin, and gets rid of them for good!!! Name: Leanne Country: United Kingdom Comment: I have no freckles on my face exept in summer when i get around 6 or 7 on the bridge of my nose. i am so jelous of everyone with freckles, i think they make girls beautiful. im 13 and my best friend has them on her cheeks and she looks gorgeous. i would kil to have freckles so you should be proud of them and not want to get rid of them! =) Name: FunkyLittleGirl01 Country: U.S.A. Comment: Freckles can be beautiful to some people But to me freckles ruin my life i have freckles everywhere i have them on my cheeks witch is ok but i also ghave them on my forhead witch is really ugly looking! Name: Hayley Country: United Kingdom Comment: Well, I first came on this site to find out ways how I could get my freckles to fade. But you know what.. They're a part of who I am. I'm the only one who see's them as bad on myself. My boyfriend, friends and family all don't understand why I worry about them so much! I supose we all see our own imperfections, after all we are our own worst critics. But what we need to do is stop seeing the bad in ourselves and focus on the good. Hey I would much rather have a lovely clear complexion instead of a face full of freckles, but they do work to my advantage sometimes. Enhance them!! And focus on your whole image rather than just looking at the Freckles!! Name: Mmm Country: Other Comment: Oh.My.God Some people are so shallow like the guy who thinks he is hot. I have freckles and i wont go out without makeup on but i dont plaster it on i have found that dream matte mousse foundation covers them well i couldn't be without them but they have their days. But what the hell are all these people slagging people off for wanting to get rid of them for!!! god it is their decision and no one elses some people like them, others dontt Jesuss get a grip people and leave them alone!!! Name: mellybee Country: U.S.A. Comment: I'm 17 and I got the weirdest genetic combo from my parents. I got my mom's pale skin with alot of freckles, and I got my dad's (who's like a fourth Cherokee) dark dark brown, almost black hair and brown eyes. I love my dark hair and eyes, but I wish I had tan skin to go with it. So I try to get tan in the spring and summer, and that works fine for my legs, arms, and stomach. They get a nice light brown color. But my face on the other hand, usually gets a burnt pink or red color, with even darker freckles that pop out. And a few weeks later, my face is just white with freckles again. Why can't my face be darker?! It drives me crazy! Tanning makes me burn easy, but without it, I look like a vampire or something! I'm thinking of just dying my hair blonde, but I think that'll be a pain in the butt because i'll have dark roots. Any advice anyone? Name: S Country: U.S.A. Comment: I am 16 and I have freckels ALL over. I get a lot of compliments on them and a lot of people who say they wish they had freckles. I have also gotten those one or two mean commnets about they make your skin look blotchy. but they also camaflouge things like pimples or mild sunburn really well. I have a freind who tries to cover them up with makeup and not to be mean but its TOTALLY noticable and u look like a cake face with all the makeup on. I'm sorry if anyone is insecure about freckles but they're not bad. Embrace them, and from my knowledge freckles blend and get less noticeable over time. Also people with lighter pigmented skin, and freickels are more likeley to have less wrinkles when you get older. and after a while ur greinds don't even notice the dots on ur face...they're just a part of the whole look. And theres a whole lot more to u than just ur freckles..ppl are probably overly screwtinizing themselves b.c u are ur own worst critic...as cliche as that may sound. Name: kelsieeeeee Country: Other Comment: okay, I have freckles! mainly on my nose though. and I used to HATE them. but now, I realize that just because you have freckles, doen't mean you are uglier, or not as pretty as ANYONE else. Freckles make you who you are! =] Name: freckles Country: U.S.A. Comment: im fourteen, i have wavy blonde hair and cute little tan freckles and I love them! i just wouldnt be me without them. i think its crazy how you all want to get rid of them! without my freckles, i'd be plain. freckles are a part of you do you shouldn't want to be without them!

Name: FGFGD Country: India Comment: NNCVBN Name: FGFGD Country: India Comment: NNCVBN Name: BASSEM AZZAM Country: U.A.E. Comment: GD Name: Alysinwonderland Country: Germany Comment: Hallo! Okay, well I originally got on the internet to find a way to get rid of freckles. And I found the lemon thing. But I read that it doesn't work. But I also read how that you shouldn't be ashamed or insecure about having freckles. So, now I'm almost happy to have freckles. See, my boyfriend of 2 years, hasn't seen my for a year and a half(he moved 8 months or so in our relationship) And now I have millions of freckles on my face that WON'T go away! With or without sun. And hes moving back to where I live : ) But I don't know if he'll like me with freckles. But if he doesn't, than we is really just an ###hole who only likes me for my looks. & to all the girls (and guys) who think that they cant get a bf/gf because you think you look ugly, don't believe that! and anyway, the girl/guy should like you for YOU not for how you look! A relationship isn't about looks! Am I right? And some guys think freckles are hot! Hey, I'm also pretty short. And my bf's 5'10 now! While I am still around 5'4". Would that make me REALLY short compared to him or not? I'm really "math challenged" Help me : ) Oh well anyway. I want to thank everyone who is saying freckles are gorgeous. My friends say that I look so pretty with freckles. But I never believed them. I only thought they were trying to make me feel better. I actually feel confident about my freckles now. Even though I don't have red hair, and for those who don't have red hair, you can still look pretty with freckles! And there is always gonna be a person who likes you for YOU. Don't overload on the makeup. That makes you look fake and plastic. Your beautiful for who you are :) Take if from someone who DOES have freckles like me. I bet a lot of people would kill to look like us and have freckles. Believe in yourself! Loosen up. Don't care what people think. Be yourself. Because those who matter don't care, and those who care don't matter. A face without freckles is a sky with no stars. ^ I thank the person who wrote that. : ) -Alysia. Name: graduating soon Country: Canada Comment: Really, have you tried anything to get it removed? its not that I don't like freckles.. I have a mole on my arm and a freckle about the same size on my ear and on my cheek. its just the location, right there in the center of the bridge of my nose ... its quite embarassing. I hate tryng to cake the make up on every day and ... nothing else i've looked up has seemed to work or seem reasonable. .. Name: me Country: Australia Comment: I have an obvious freckle on the centre of my nose to. Name: graduating soon Country: Canada Comment: Hi, I'm graduating soon. Ever since I was 12 or so I've had this one freckle RIGHT in the center of my Nose ... my parents told me it came becasue of the sun, because it was never there untill I was about 12. Its quite dark compared to my skin and a little bit bigger than I think most freckles are or seem to be. I have other freckles... two on the side of my face and A mole on my arm and it doesn't bother me, but RIGHT in the center of my nose .. its quite the hard place to cover up. I have tried make up ... every day since I was in grade 11 and since someone mentioned something about it I have every morning put on foundation..then powder.. always having to put extra on my nose ...and unfortunatly looking uneven and not very natural. I was wondering if anybody knew any way to maybe lighten it up .. or even cover it up once in awhile with some make up or something... I agree with everyone that freckles are beautiful. I just want to be able to cover this ONE ..once in awhile ... untill I get out of highschool where people aren't so critical..

Name: poo head Country: india Comment: hiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii Name: Alex Country: thailand Comment: Well, what is there to say. I'm half-Asian, half-European, and have average, bland skin, hazel eyes, and dark brown hair. I'm attending university in the USA at the moment; my first time living outside the country, so you can imagine my surprise when just the other day I ran into the most beautiful woman I had ever seen in my entire ninteen years of existance. She had crystaline eyes; bright blue green set in an elegant face covered with sparkling red freckles that highlighted her beautiful, translucent skin. And her hair... wow, her hair... I had never seen a woman with natural red hair before, and I tell you, she made my heart split in two right then and there... if only I had posessed the courage to talk to her... Women (and men too, i guess :) ) with freckles, listen well. If you ever feel as if you are ugly or that nobody likes the way you look, remember this; there will always be at least one person who thinks you posess one of the most stunningly gorgeous gifts any person could ever have. Name: . Country: usa Comment: hii, i have freckles all over my face. i love it ! i have a really pretty honey brown hair , nice blue eyes, and TONS of freckles. but they can get annoying at times, but then i always say, "freckles make people unique!". ohh and a lot of people are like, "I USE sooo much foundation! it's not even funny!" buttt.. it kinda is funny. because first off foundation should be only used for blemishes /acne. and i dont think freckles are acne. one more thing, i think all the people who encourage freckles being a good thing, are good people ! Name: Lili Country: england Comment: I'm 20. Freckles do sometimes fade, most of them have faded from my face, but I miss them! I still have them on the rest of my body, and there are tons on my arms and shoulders -several guys have told me they are beautiful! If it's any help, use sunscreen, don't go out in the sun. Mine multiply every summer when I go out in the field. But honestly, never feel ugly because of your freckles -many people are attracted to them!

That is one of the stupidest things a person can do. Name: Em Country: australia Comment: I have lots of freckles, on my face, back, arms and legs, and I love them! They make me what I am. If I want to cover them up then I can, but I don't want to. I love my freckles, I think they make my face look nice and kind of cute. I used to not like them because other people didn't have as many freckles as me and I wanted to be like them. But I have had people compliment me about my freckles and my looks, and now I have accepted my freckles and learnt to love them. Name: canadian girl Country: canada Comment: I have freckles and they aren't that bad! i have a regular powder foundation that i apply to my face to give it colour and it fades the freckles quite a bit, i also go tanning in the bed for 8 minutes daily but cover my face for 5 minutes so my face isnt as exposed. I get compliments on how pretty i am all the time! Name: fading freckles Country: australia Comment: yes, from freckles to fair Nicole Kidman the only thing that works is a TCA peel, Mandelic acid, meladerm or cosmelan. Name: shazi Country: dubai Comment: i also have lots of freckles on the cheeks of ma face and i m so much worried about it really wat shoul i do Name: Emily Country: other Comment: Hey, to all of you saying that you can't get a boyfriend or whatever because you have freckles. STOP! lol. I think the case with freckles is, it's one of those 'the grass is always greener' things. People who don't have freckles would like freckles and people who do, hate them. My dad had a face full of freckles when he was a kid, and when he turned 18, they all went! And he misses them so much now. So don't worry, because one day you might be missing your freckles instead of complaining about them. And to all those red haired people out there with freckles, you are so beautiful! I have two friends with red hair and freckles, and god it really is so pretty =) But don't worry about any of that stuff anyway, physicial beauty is nothing at all, if you are not beautiful on the inside, I know it's been said a million times, but you can be SOOO beautiful if you just let your inner beauty shine! -From Emily, in Ireland.

Name: james Country: hongkong Comment: im James, im 15 and yes im a boy! I have blonde hair and many many freckles... Ive had them since i was about 11. I used to hate them, but in the past year i have realised that they are not all that bad. If i had a choise i would like to be born with non-freckle skin. Unfortunatelly you are born the way you are. People have to realise that they are not as ugly as they think. Think about what people around you think of your freckles, they dont think badly of you or anything. Freckles are perfectly normal and acceptable. You just have to try and forget about your freckles, try not looking in the mirror for a week. It really helps!!...trust me. Then you wont hink about them as much! :) ps, im from england but i live in Hong Kong (weird ehh?)

Name: Freckle Hater Country: usa Comment: I've been taking Alitol for about a month and a half now. My freckles seem lighter but I can't tell if that is because I think they are or if it is because I have completely avoided the sun. I have been doing some research and found that VITAMIN E when placed topically on the body and then taken orally should get rid of freckles. I just went to the organic food store and bought some so I will see how that goes. It is my belief that if ALITOL was really successful we would hear tons of success stories on the web, in magazines, etc. People promoting Vitamin E can't make any money so I think it is a legit. Vitamin E has been know to eliminate Age Spots, so freckles seem to fall in line. I will update on results. If anyone has tried VITAMIN E before let me know.

And anyway...to anyone actually interested I've found a product that i think works. Daggett & Ramsdell - Facial fade moisturizing cream. Its and American product so it might be hard to find in English and other world-wide stores...but anyway i found loads on amazon at just 3.99 so even if it doesnt work for you its still pretty cheap. And people...the whole lemon thing does not work!

Name: Julia Thorne Country: australia Comment: A face without freckles is like a sky without stars! Name: freckle face Country: england Comment: people who have freckles do not realise how lucky they are... I have sooooo many freckles on my face that they are literally joined up, The first comment I read on this page- the person from england... about being ashamed and self cosious blah blah blah... you need to grow up and accept yourself for who you are. Freckles are amazing features to have on your face, without them... your going to look awfully plain. you are being irrational and probably need to find more hobbies and better yourself and become a more fuller person so you realise how great you truly are. I get so many people calling me names about my freckles all the time, but its because they're jealous. Laser surgery is ridiculous... especially if you have as many as you claim. My friend is a doctor that specialises in laser surgery and says treating such a vast area of skin such as the face or body with laser surgery for removal of freckles is silly- people usually regret the way their face/body/personality has changed without them. save surgery for people that actually need it for health reasons. you're just being vain and wishing you were someone else. Well i hope that people wishing to change themselves will not go through with it and become happy with themselves for who they really are. My freckles actually got me a modelling contract. its a true mark of individuality... like rare eye colours beauitiful different skin tones, hair shades. the list can go on forever. Diversity in appearance is AMAZING!!!! Dont just change the way you look because people stare at you... Thats stupid, they could stare at you because they think your beautiful. You will regret it. love pecas lindas p.s gigi, your freckles sound so beautiful, you are really blessed with something amazing. My mother is mixed race and has lots of freckles too like mine, they look great! Its such a unique character to have for someone that isnt white. Name: Country: england Comment: Pink rose, you talk alot of crap. People worry about their freckles because it genuinely effects there standard living of life. It effects communication, you hardly go out because you are so self-conscious and feel that people are always looking at you, it makes you paranoid. Which ever dermatologist you went to is talking absolute rubbish, are you sure he/she was a dermatologist or did they just call themselves that? do you research. Laser does work because I have had it done, and have seen a dramatic improvement people have commented on how well I look and light my freckles are, so go and do some learning and increase your brain size. Freckles are something to be ashamed of if you hate them so much like I did and many other people do around the world - some freckles as I said before look nice, loads look awful and not attractive and using makeup to cover them up just intensifies the problem. In short, anyone who has problems coming to terms with their freckles go and have IPL laser because it does work. Name: pink rose Country: usa Comment: If you have freckles there is only one solution to getting rid of them. STICK A GUN TO YOUR HEAD AND PULL THE TRIGGER! I can't believe how STUPID you people are! SO WHAT IF YOU HAVE FRECKLES? IF YOU HATE YOURSELF AND ARE ASHAMED OF YOURSELF THEN NO ONE OUT THERE CAN LOVE YOU! You all are sick if you're actually worrying so much. You know what we are as beautiful or as ugly as WE want to feel about ourselves. I have freckles and there was a time when i hated them too but then i realized that i've had them for years and even my dermatologist told me that there is no way to get rid of them permanently, even lasers and IPL can't get rid of them forever and can even discolor your skin...IT DAWNED ON ME THAT I WAS BEING PATHETIC JUST LIKE YOU ALL ARE ACTING RIGHT NOW!!! freckles are NOTHING TO BE ASHAMED OF!!! GET OVER IT! no one really cares about freckles out there!! the people who truly love you appreciate you because of your brain and your heart...not because of a few dots on your face or arms!! PSHHH you know what...keep whining about your freckles...i'm done! Name: axo Country: india Comment: you say we shouldnt be shallow but you HATE them thats an extreme term. By that do you mean you wouldnt even associate with a freckled person? btw are you a man or a woman lol Name: kayleigh Country: england Comment: i have heard that putting lemon juice or vinigar and honey on your face for 15 minits twice daily can fade/ get rid of freckles easily. Name: a.xo Country: england Comment: I have just been reading down at some of the comments below. To all those people leaving harsh comments towards freckled people your just pathetic. Its people insensitive enough like you that cause people to get depressed about their appearance. Freckles are natural, many people hate them, me included, however there are thousands of people that are not so shallow as to dislike someone because they have freckles. So ignore those idiots down the bottom! Name: a.xo Country: england Comment: I have hundreds of huge, dark freckles on my face. I have been wearing thick layers of foundation for almost 3 years but it hasn't made me feel any more conscious of my appearance. So instead I started looking for more professional advice for freckle coverage. As already said on this site, the lemon juice technique is something I cant wait to try. I also read that there are freckle hiding face masks which can actually reduce the appearance of freckles. I also read that wearing lots of lip gloss can distract people from looking at your freckles. However, as I read, you should do these things for yourself and not because other people are teasing you. I used to get teased but I got on with it and pretended not to care. I have now learnt to live with my freckles however I still would do anything to get rid of them. Once you get used to your freckles everyone else does too. And it is worth searching the internet for more freckle tips because there are some worth knowing. But don't be a victim to your freckles. Learn to deal them and everyone else will too. Name: Tamara Country: canada Comment: I have reddish-brown hair.. freckles on my face, my hands, my arms... especially my elbows. LOVE YOUR FRECKLES PEOPLE!!!! As far as the ones I have seen on people, they always look WONDERFUL! So appreciate them ya"ll. Appreciate that you do not have acne or have no hair, or whatever. They are just freckles, for gods sake! Name: anonymous Country: usa Comment: Your skin is the largest organ in your body. An average adult male's skin weighs over three kilograms, and if spread out would cover about the area of a twin-size blanket. Skin is waterproof, and it is constantly renewing itself. It keeps germs out, lets you feel things, protects your inner organs, and helps keep the body's temperature stable. Skin comes in many colours. If your skin is exposed to the sun's ultraviolet rays, it will burn, and cause damage that may not reveal itself for many years. Following a burn, skin may tan, turning a shade of brown. If your skin tans evenly, it will be brown all over. But it might only tan in certain spots ... in which case you'll have freckles! Let's look at what causes skin to turn brown ... Skin is made up of three layers. The outer layer that you can see is called the epidermis. Skin cells on the surface are constantly dying and flaking off, to be replaced by new cells that form below and make their way to the surface. Inside the epidermis are special cells called melanocytes. These cells produce a pigment called melanin when ultraviolet light hits them. (A pigment is a chemical which has a distinct colour). Melanin is brownish black. The more melanin that is released by the melanocytes in your skin, the browner your skin will be. Most people have the same number of melanocytes in their skin ... some just produce and distribute more melanin than others. Not all parts of your skin contain the same amount of melanin. The palms of your hands and the soles of your feet contain almost none of the pigment. On the other hand, your areolae (the dark skin around your nipples) contains a lot. Your skin contains melanocytes which release melanin into the surrounding cells when sunlight hits them. The purpose of this is so that the brown pigment will protect the lower layers of skin from further burning. Some people have melanin which is darker, so their skin is a darker brown. Some people have skin which produces more melanin than others, so their skin is darker too, especially after being exposed to the sun. In some people the melanin is clumped together rather than spread out evenly, so they have brown patches ... called freckles. Freckles are small patches of melanin the accumulate in the skin, that grow and get darker as they are continually exposed to sunlight. Freckles are more common in people with fair skin, blue eyes, and especially in people with red hair. Freckles first appear in children at about age five, and increase in number, size and darkness during the summer, fading and decreasing in number in the winter. Freckles aren't dangerous, and are not a sign of disease or skin problems. However ... Sunlight contains two types of ultraviolet radiation: UVA and UVB. UVB radiation is what causes burning of the skin (sunburn), skin cancer, wrinkles, and premature aging of the skin. UVA rays cause tanning, but are linked to problems such as impaired vision, skin rashes, and allergic or other reactions to drugs. Skin damage from overexposure to the sun is cumulative. It continues to add up over the years, and cannot be reversed. You should always wear UV-blocking lotion when outside, even when it's cloudy (UV rays aren't stopped by clouds). This is especially important for children, as most of the permanent damage to your skin happens before age 18.

Can someone help me?!?!?!?!?!?! Name: Daisy Country: australia Comment: And yes there are more problems in life, than freckles. But some people just need help to move past this problem so that they can get to other things. For a lot of people, it's a mejor block. That stops them from doing things, loving themselves, so on and so forth. People shouldnt comment here unless theyre willing to help. Thats what these people want, not to hear that you love your freckles, good on you. anyway. I'll give some advice seeing as I'm wasting more space on here. Ive used TCA peel. It faded the freckles, but I had about a week where I couldnt leave the house because my skin was red and peeling. with TCA peels, (you can buy off ebay) You need to do it when you have a week off work, or are on holidays. You must where suncream after doing the peel, for it's new skin, that you dont want to get new freckles on. And also, it will take about 4 treatments to remove all freckles. Ive done 2 so far, should get back to it, though I just dont like the peeling, and dont have time at the moment to take a week off for recovery time. Othr then that I recomend it. Perhaps one treatment every 5 weeks. Is appropriate. I would recommend 25% for a deeper quicker peel. Ive been using 12% . Just be careful with it, these are the basics. They usually come with instructions, if you have the time to do it. I suggest trying it. It does work slowly, not as slow as lemon juice. which I dont believe could completely remove freckles, as it just reveals new skin, perhaps it will remove light freckles over time. Just use common sense. And always wear suncream to prevent further freckles. and to keep your old freckles out of the sun so that they have time to fade, all in time. So for now, just count your blessings, I mean literally. Freckles are just one negative aspect to your face, but think about other features, or other things in life that are blessings, I count my blessings every night before I go to bed, it really helps one turn into a positive person, making life easier. Take care cupcakes. xoxo Name: Daisy Country: australia Comment: Can someone read through all these life stories and make a top ten of things that actually work to remove freckles. Isnt that why everyone else came here? Not to read peoples opinions. Yes theyre beautiful, and yes sometimes theyre ugly, and yes lemon juice is a slow way of removing them. Some people look great with them, some people wont let anyone see them without makeup because of them. I read through a quarter of these comments, and the solution to all this. Is a top ten of things that actually work, and then removing all this other waste of time opinions. Have a lovely day. And if you hate your freckles, don't look in the mirror until you can get rid of them. just try and forget them, otherwise you will not get on with you life. like me. Though I'll just find confidence from other aspects of me until I can get rid of them. Much love, peace and understanding.

Name: FRECKLES NO MORE IN FLORIDA Country: usa Comment: Listen, all my freckled friends... I am 41 years old. I have dark hair, crystal-blue eyes and freckles on my arms, back, and chest. I just had IPL done and it really works! It is painful and expensive, but it REMOVES freckles! I will say this to you... Please, please, please...protect your skin from the sun in your youth! Always wear sunblock with at least an SPF of 30..preferrably higher and with some zinc OXIDE in it. The IPL is something that can be done, but an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure, so if you protect yourself now, you will save yourself a ruddy, bumpy, freckled complexion later in life! As for the IPL.... It feels like hot rubber bands being snapped on your skin. Afterward you will feel like you have a terrible sunburn for several hours. The freckles will look much, much darker for several days or weeks (scary dark)and you may have some red, swelling for a day or so as well. Soon the freckles will appear raised and flaky and will fall off! Yes, I said "fall off"! For years I have wanted to remove them. I can't believe there is finally something that works. I do want to say... I was the ugly duckling and always felt insecure with my freckles as a child, but in my early 20's I modeled swimsuits and did commercials! I turned out to be quite the "freckled" catch! You can dislike them all you want, but wear them well and protect your skin. Save your money for IPL or future advanced treatments for removal if you so desire. I just wanted to say hello and let you all know that there really is something that works if you really want to have them removed and you can wear them well until then! ;) Name: martinez gurl Country: usa Comment: seiously every one who says that freckles are no big deal just shut up im the palest hispanic you'll ever see i have dark hair but light eyes and the only way people recognize me as a hispanic is by hearing my last name and on top of that i have freckles on my nose and cheeks and im 14 and im already wondering haw im gunna get a guy to like them inm popular too and people come up to me and tell me im really pretty alot and my moms freckles faded but i always feel their noticing how pale i am or my freckles i hope they go away Name: Frank town chick Country: usa Comment: freckles are not good at all, you cant tan with them very well and plus it is a waste of money by caking on the makeup everyday!

U CAN'T GET RID OF THEM! u can try lasers but even that can cause scarring or discoloration. you can try lemons or vinegars or bleaches but that doesn't work at all! freckles are a part of your skin color and you cannot change the color of your skin, SO LIVE WITH IT AND BE HAPPY! you only live once!!! why worry?

Everyone is self concious about SOMETHING with their appearance. Be proud you have freckles, you're different, unique, beautiful. I GARUNTEE if you look at someone, anyone and think of them as being beautiful you can litterly watch as they transform into a beautiful person. Dont watch MTV and wish you looked like them. the pounds of make up and airbrushing they use can never create real beauty. One day every single one of you will find a guy (girl) that will make you feel beautiful, thats all that matters. Make it through high school without being superficial and wake up. Life is more than who's dating who or who's skinnier, tanner (ps. they'll probably have skin cancer, like my cousin who's dying from it, by the time they're 20 if they go tanning all the time), whos richer, prettier, or more popular. Life is a gift. dont waste it. if you really care so much about the fact that you have freckles get some Bare Minerals and cover them up. Confidence is so much more attractive than being selfconscious. i hope you learned something. thanks for reading. Name: zimbobway Country: zambia Comment: ello.

Its fun! you should try it =D Name: Emma Country: england Comment: I have a few freckles on my nose and cheeks!! But I don't care, i only care when I come on to places like this because I find comments like ''I hate freckles'' ''Freckles are ugly'' their not ugly at all. I have freckles and I am not ugly.

Name: Will Country: australia Comment: I have a spray of freckles but that is not what im concerned about... my face is really white and i want to tan without getting freckles!! any suggestions? Name: Freckles are Beautiful Country: australia Comment: Freckles are Beautiful. Faces without freckles are BLAND BLAND BLAND. They have very little character and little individuality. We all tend to love animals that have distinctive spots and patterns more than the bland one-coloured animals. Same with people. Nothing lights up my attention, puts my heart on fire, and makes me take initial attention of someone more than if they have freckles. Of course, it's personality and attitude that determines whether someone is attractive or not. Freckles or no freckles - a belief of "I'm ugly" projects that to others and creates a self-fulfilling prophecy. If you believe you are "hot" and project that *humbly* then others will perceive you that way too - except for those who are jealous. Freckles make a person unique. And people who are not unique, who are bland-looking (eg. sickly one-coloured olive skin), hate people who are unique and they go out of their way to try and make unique people feel bad about themselves.

Name: Kenzie Country: usa Comment: Everyone who is so concerned about what they look like with their freckles and how they can get rid of them needs to get over themselves right now. Life isn't perfect! You can't have everything perfect in life, but you can make the most of what you have and what God gave you and go on with life withought being a little whiney brat. I have freckles all over my body and no... I have never hated them. Its not like I havn't ever wondered what I would look like without them, but I personally love them! There is absolutely no reason why anyone on this site should be so concerned about removing a part of who you are just to fit in with who or what you think is cool. Enjoy what you have now because when they are gone with time, you will be so incredibly sorry that you whined so much about such a small thing. I hope that everyone who reads this at least thinks about what they are saying about chemical peals and lemon juice and just get over it! Live life to the fullest, don't always try to conform yourself to your perfect society.

My mom told me that a doctor will not remove them because they aren't cancerous, and she said there is really no way to get rid of them. So, really not matter how hard all of you try, they won't go away. I know how you much some of you hate them, cause I hate them just as much. They are the one thing that makes me feel hidious and hated by everyone. I've gotten made fun of for years, and it really hurts me to know I get made fun of because I have freckles. It's stupid.

I'm 15-years old. I do understand that freckles are a part of me. Unfortunately, for ME, they do not work out too well. Some people say you shouldn't worry, they'll "accent" your skin. It doesn't in my case. I have acne also, and the freckles just make my acne WORSE. Anyway, I'm afraid of lemon juice because I am using medication for my acne, and I'm afraid the lemon juice will interfere with it. Thanks!

You are so freaking shallow, I hate people like you. |: If you used your eyes, you would know that there are plenty of models with freckles, and a lot without, too. Gisele Bunchen even has freckles! And she's Victoria's Secret angel! You people need to stop hating your freckles so much and celebrate them instead. They're awesome, and they also make any pimples less noticable ;) If you really can't stand them, use good foundation which will hopefully cover them pretty well. Also, try to focus on your personality before you worry about your looks. I hope this helped. <3 Name: NONE Country: usa Comment: I HAVE A TON OF FRECKLES.

Name: Rekha Country: india Comment: I got freckles during pegnancy. Name: Knot Country: australia Comment: Being in the australian sun causes alot of freckles. Your best option is to use sun block and shade. But for fading the ones you already have - I found a mild pink Sterilizing solution that you can get at the pharmacy for around $15 AU works on fading them. Doctors use it in ICU wards for their hands. Wet a cotton ball and wipe over your face twice a day. Please remember that your skin is alive, so no matter what you do to remove your freckles, they will come back , eventualy.

People with curly hair wish it was straight and people with curly hair long for curls! Freckles are nothing strange - in fact they make you look super cute and individual. People with lighter skin usually have freckles because they have less melanin (a chemical in the skin that protects you from sun damage.) So instead of tanning, they freckle.

You need to enjoy all of the unique characteristics that freckles give you! they make you stand out and if your not happy with it, get over it because getting facial peels and putting lemon crap on your face at night and all of that might work but your doing more harm to yourself in the long run! I for one have never been teased or taunted about my freckles in my entire life. The only comment i have gotten about them is that they are adorable. I life in Orange County where all of the action is going on at the moment and still...no teasing.

Name: erin Country: australia Comment: I am a 42 year old woman and have had freckles for as long as I can remember. My advice to all of the young people who are writing in to this forum is to wait!! Some people's freckles do just disappear with time - my brother had big freckles all over his face as a kid and now has absolutely none. Same with two of my other siblings - I am the only one who still has freckles and even my freckles have faded a lot since I was a teenager. So, please don't do anything with you skin yet except wear sunblock. If you have moles you need to get them regularly checked by a skin specialist as moles can turn to cancer - the worst being melanoma which is a killer. Another very good reason to always wear sunblock!! Skin treatments such as IPL are still fairly new but seem to be quite effective. So if when you are older your freckles still haven't faded, then maybe you can look into something like IPL. I do think that on a young person freckles are attractive and should not stop you from enjoying yourself or being yourself. I have had many boyfriends and was married for a long time - my freckles did not stop me from doing anything that I wanted to do. But I do understand how you might not like them. The main thing is to keep it in perspective - you only get one life and when you're eighty years old looking back on your life you don't want to regret not having done things you wanted to do just because you had freckles!

Name: Freckles Gone Country: usa Comment: I have had freckles my whole life and they super increased since I went to the tanning bed so much. I was looking for ways to remove them and I got this product called "Facial Fade" from Sally's Beauty Supply and it really works! I have been using it for 3 months now. I put it on every morning right after I wash and exfoliate my face. After three months almost all my freckles are gone, and the remaining ones are so faded you can barely see them. It works great! It has hydroquonine in it which inhibits the production of melanin and breaks down the existing melanin. The only thing is you have to put sunscreen on whenever you go outside because exposure to the sun will just cancel out the effects. So just use "Facial Fade" and put on sunscreen. In three months mine were almost completely gone. Good luck guys! Name: IPL ANYONE!?

The minute the summer arrived, I developed twice as many freckles without sunbathing! Name: Just a thought Country: england Comment: Guys, seriously, take a step back and realise what you all are saying. I mean take a look how the page is... Basically all of the comments (though I haven't read them all as they are very samey and therefore get very boring) are about how much people hate their freckles and their looks, or asking how to get rid of them. People might have said something to you in the past, and it may have been hurtful then, and if it is still happening to you then I feel sorry for you, but you don't just have to take it and feel bad about yourself. Look who these people are. What does it really matter to you. If they are going to use some kind of put-down as their humour then they really are very boring people and probably have some insecurities themselves that they hope to god will never be revealed and exposed. Good-looks might be nice to have. But confidence speaks louder. And personality shines through any bodily appearance. Love yourself. Look after yourself, take care of your body - your only one. Guys, seriously considering chemically burning off your skin to remove freckles, or shining a destructive laser at your face is not a good idea. What is it going to do anyway? It's not going to change your life. Only in the way you'd have to go back every few months to burn your face off again. Maybe that sounds attractive to you. I guess it's your decision, but just feel good about yourselves. There is no need to beat yourself up about freckles. Freckles!! For Christ's sake, what's the problem; stand up to people who tease you about it. Be who you are, not what tou look like.

Thanks so much! Name: annonimouse Country: england Comment: HI.I dont want to upset anybody or put them down but this peel thing sounds dangerous!If it can burn your kin off how can it be good for you?I will say that YES it probably works-for a couple of months but the next time you go in sunlight you may get even more as it may weaken your skin's surface.I'm no expert but i think that useing sunscreen every night before you go to bed(30+)can help as it makes your skin stronger against the sun. But please don't do it.If you get rid of your freckles you may be left with perminent scars or discolouring which is even worse than freckles.And if you do decide to go through with it consult a doctor or skin specialist who knows what they're doing! Know that im only trying to help and if it's just freckles your worried about they WILL fade if you protect yourself and avoid strong sunlight.I know what you're going through and will tell you if i find anything that helps! GOOD LUCK!xxx Name: rick Country: canada Comment: yeah its very expensive to get it done by a pro, and obviously when you buy the 100% TCA you need to dilute it, or else it will burn you skin off hahah, no im serious it will, some places sell TCA already diluted from 8% to 25% but if you want stronger you need to buy the 100% and dilute it yourself, dont be scared, think of it as a learning experience, i found it quite enjoyable going through the whole ordeal Name: some1 (also VERY freckili) Country: england Comment: Hi.i jst wanted to ask you all a quick question.What has made you become like this?Im sure you didnt just wake up one morning and decide that your freckles/moles/blemishes ec were ugly.Someone has told you that.I KNOW because it has happened to me and its not fair.I have all of the things wrong with me that i mentioned above and the only reason im bothered is because of other people.I know now that you are probably trying to gt rid of them for yourself but none of us would have gotten this bad if it hadn't been for those comments that you never forget.I'm not saying forget about your problems because it doesn't work (because ive tried).But think back to when this first started and who made the remarks that drove you to this and see how perfect they are.There not perfect are they?And either get over it as they may have meant it as a joke (very funny haha) or because they're mean and jealous!I know how much these people can hurt you but i go through it too-ALL the time so either forget about it or go up to them and smack them in the face:)lol.It may not be the best solution but you'll probably feel a hell of a lot better for it.good luck!lv yaXXx Name: tca peel Country: india Comment: a TCA peel iz something u hve 2 buy on the internet.. if used correctly itz not dangerous! it will remove freckles thou xxx Name: frecklegirl Country: usa Comment: Hi I have bright red hair and the freckles to go with it. Where I live there are not to many people with red hair and freckles. The few girls around here that have red hair do not have the same amount of freckles that I do. I have freckles that blanket my arms, shoulders, and the top part of my back. When I was little I almost never had on sunscreen and I have had 3rd degree burn from the sun. I have always hated my freckles. I feel like they will be the death of me (literally) from skin cancer. I often wonder if there is anyone else out there who has as many freckles as me? I am self conscious but I still think that I am an attractive person. (Just not in a bathing suit like the tan bodies). ANY Way with all the cosmetic surgeries that are available out there WHY not one for us...? I see a dermatologist every 6mos and he acts like they are impossible to get rid of. I know people have tattos removed why not freckles? Just venting not expecting anyone to know the answer. Name: frealy freckles Country: other Comment: Did you ever see an actor or actress without make-up on?, they have them too! I understand if you have dark freckles but if not just get a tan and use a spf with anti brown spot. freckles always fade with regular sun and face cleansing, however if they are darkish moles you should go to a doctor and ask them. dont be worried if ur a bloke cause its one of the most commonly removed skin blemmish besides a the wart, aned it is actually recomended if a dark freckle / mole does cause irritation to have it/them removed, because they are indirectly related to cancer- but dont panic, just see a doctor hell know what to do,. So next time your sick with the flu and at the doctors just mention it to him or her. Name: nell Country: usa Comment: microderm. and peels def. work over time- prof peels def work but are so expensive. sheer cover has helped blend the frecals its light and looks natural. i would really suggest trying it if you don't like it send it back applying it with the right brush really helps. if you like thick coverage apply estau lauder doublewear with a sponge i have fair skin and i get it in bisque. also elizibeth arden sponge on makeup really works well i use sunbeige. always use a loose powder to set the make-up so it stays on longer. getting a spray on tan from prof places before weddings works great but if you can't do that revlon stay on makeup in tan is nice to rub on your arms- its a foundation. jergens tinted moisturizer is pretty cheap and works over time. putting the tinted moisturzer will minimize the appearance of frecals. bronzing powder will do the same. thats all the tips i can think of for now. ill come and check the site if you have questions for me- people willl be attracted to if you do have a sweet bubbly personality i know having frecals sometimes makes you a little insecure and its hard to show your fun personality at times but try your best in making every day a memorable one and try to be silly- luv ya'll-nell Name: freckleface Country: usa Comment: i have some freckles accross the bridge of my nose and there so annoying..i want to shoot them off. anyways..i was wonderin..does alitol really work?

I did hear of Green light therapy about the removal of freckles and on some of those sights they show before and after results; not sure if it is truth but it was nice to see the pics. The price I am not sure about but you can buy a green light yourself; not sure how it will work using it by your self but keep on digging and you will find other ways...we are people who explore and if you do not like something try to do something about it...yes we all need to accept things we can not change but that does not mean we have to stop searching for something to change it...Take Care... Name: Go GOGOOGOG Country: india Comment: Freckles are caused by a pigment released in the skin when you are out in the sun and it becomes concentrated in certain areas, hence you get a freckle. I am absolutely covered in them and the only way to slightly way to atleast fade them without having to get a laser to BURN them away is just to make sure you have a high factor suncream on when your out in the sun and they will begin to fade SLIGHTLY over time. To be honest there is more scary things to worry about in life than freckles, just think yourself lucky you have food in your belly every day and that you and your family arent stuggling to find your next meal.

Better yet .. has nayone ever counted their brown freckles? Name: I know about ***TCA PEELS**** Country: usa Comment: TCA DOES work but you normally have to do it several times, more or less depending how deep and dark your freckles are. If you want to notice a difference you have to use at least 25%. Anything less will just make your skin get a very light peel which will not do much of anything. Even the 25% is a light peel and you will have to do it quite a few times BUT it WILL remove your freckles. If you want to see faster results and remove them quicker you can do a 50% peel. However, if you have never done a peel, especially on your face I would recommend starting with a 25% or less peel though, just so you know what to expect. Because it DOES burn like your face is melting off but you leave it on for a maximum of 4 minutes so it is over soon. And the higher % you use the longer it takes to heal. Be leery of who you buy yours from, some of them are not real TCA and do not work. You also have to use a good SPF especially right after you do it because your face is more sensitive. And even after all your freckles are gone, if you are out in the sun a lot, new freckles will appear. So always wear sunblock. Name: Fernanda Country: mexico Comment: Hi, im 15 years old, im a redhead, ive got a lot of freckles, my skin is really light, i've been using sunscreen since i was like 2 years old....and i still love them, i think they are like a plus for some people, its not such a big deal having them, you just have to care alittle more about your skin and try not to expose it to the sun...ive learned to live that way and its not that annoying...everyones got to take care of themselves in different ways, what we have to do is just to spread alittle of sun block everyday, i guess its not that difficult and hatefull...... its like everything, people with straight hair want it curly and vice versa, everyone should lern to accept themselves the way they are, its the only way other people will like u, guess its called selfesteem right?...we should be proud of them is part of our personality, it gives the person something different from everybody else......

Been to doctor: he says this is effective with non-redheads (you're from Italian descent?). Natural redheads have freckles that are deeper in the skin so this method is less effective in my case. IPL, I think, has been amazingly effective- as well as less damaging than laser to skin. I am a full blown redhead. Had freckles since 4 yrs old. The ones on my shoulders, chest, face and neck have faded AMAZINGLY after IPL. Although they will come back after a year with sun exposure. My Chinese friend had laser done to 3 freckles she had on her cheek and it left a little scarring. She said that she smelt her skin burning. That put me off. The IPL specialist that I went to said that Asian skin is different cos the pores are smaller and the skin tends to be more prone to scarring/tearing. Italian/ olive complexions and darker are not good with IPL- there's too much overall pigment and blistering can result. That's all the info I can share with you...... Name: tynee Country: usa Comment: Want to remove your freckles? People tried Ettas Skin Whitening Powder and it works to them! Try it. I just want to share. Name: kayley Country: usa Comment: Hey everyone. Okay, I have browsed through some of your comments about how to get rid of your freckles, sun spots, mole, ance scars. There are two remedies that I know of that actually work. First of all, laser treatment- before having this done consult with your doctor/pediatrican, I know I would trust my doctor above anyone. Your doctor then revers you to a dermatologist or another that treats your skin problem. Secondly, I know that you could get a facial peel, this is done by a dermatologist. I really recommend that you have a visit with your doctor before looking into these methods. And don't think I'm some random,unfreckled chick telling you about these methods. I have had freckles ever since i was 10, from a massive sun burn under my eyes, I was not born with them. My mom, dad, and sisters didn't have them. And I am ofI Itlaian decent so it would be very unlikey to have sunburn. I also suffered from anxiety ever since i was 8 and now i am 15, this was because of other reasons. But most reasons now are because people make fun of me for putting on tons and i mean TONS of make up. Even the word MAKE-UP makes me feel all embarassed. So, for those that all have similar issues concerning their freckles, moles, acne, etc there ARE treatments out there you just have to have enough money to get them done. But the laser treamtent effectively works 100% unless your frecks, moles etc are very very dark. Much love xo0ox!

Name: reggie Country: usa Comment: I used both Felitex and Alitol. Neither product worked at all. In fact, I got more freckles. I stayed out of the sun, and used sun screens. What's even worse, I started getting freckles where they never were before. I do not think you can remove freckles without professional help, such as a cosmestic surgeon. Some chemicals will lighten your skin, but will not remove them like Alitol and Felitex claim. Name: redhead Country: southafrica Comment: Oh and I think that all these creams and stuff are ineffective money making scam. The really heavey-duty chemicals that really do help are illegal anyway. Which is ok cos they'd probably do major damage. Natural freckles (redheads) are very deep in the skin. I really don't think creams will reach them....... Name: redhead Country: southafrica Comment: I'm a natural redhead meaning I have them all over my arms chest, and face. I've been using sunblock for years (but some clog up the pores so you gotta watch out). It faded them a bit, but not so much. I had IPl across all these areas (although not face, yet). It came out pretty well. Faded up to 80 percent. Honesly great! Only downside is that the areas between the freckles tend to be quite light so this is the color you'll end up with after the treatment. I like being on the pale side- has become quite fashinable too, so I don't mind about this. It sort of hurt afterward- nothing too bad though. Then it turned REALLY dark and looked quite weird so I wore long sleaved blouses for a while. Well it eventually peeled off about 3 weeks later. I haven't done my face yet, but I want to do a test patch first. A lot of the freckles on my cheek area have blended- I'm just nervous of walking around with chocolate colored cheeks for 3 weeks!

Besides having them on my cheeks and nose I have them on my arms, shoulders, and some on my legs and back. One thing I realized over the last couple of years is that theres nothing wrong with them, they're just different and in some cultures thats good. I went to the dominican republic last summer and most of the local guys down there thought I was really unique and beautiful. After I had a boyfriend for the first time a couple years ago i thought he was crazy for thinking I was beautiful, and wondered why he didn't go for some tanned girls. Guys, I find, actually find freckles cute and would rather go out with girls like that than some stereotypical tanned, blonde chic, with whom they probably just want to use for thier looks anyway. I used to be worried about when they would fade away and how I could get rid of them until I realized that the problem I had with myself couldn't be fixed by some lemon juice or micro-dermibrasion. The problems that alot of you have have to do with self-esteem which is on the inside. If you convey a good personality to people, than your freckles will will just end up being one of your attributes to other, instead of a fault, which is what people will see them as if you act embarrased of them.

You can order it at many websites but make sure you get a tube of retin-a with it. It will remove all freckles, acne, and wrinkles. I must warn you though, it's a tough process to go through. Your skin will be very irrirated for a month or so.

Your posts say India but maybe you just didnt change the country when you posted. I am guessing you are young so lets forget about TCA, you can only get that off the internet anyhow. I believe you can get Porcelaina(sp?) at Walmart. I have never looked for it. But what I suggest you get now is Claudia Stephens Fading stuff. You have to go to a Sally Beauty store though. Then you can ask where the Claudia Stephens fading stuff is. There are many different things to choose from. I got the nighttime lightening serum. Another woman on here got the Facial Fade and Lightening Cream. My freckles have faded and so have hers. This stuff is all under $10.00 too. This wont cure you overnight, it will take some time but patience is your only choice. This stuff is all from the USA so if you are in another country, you probably have to order it off the internet. Name: To Blondie-from Christina Country: usa Comment: I have not used it for the last 2 weeks because I used a sunless tanner but that's all faded now so I'll start using it again. And I have noticed a difference, my freckles have lightened and my complexion is more even.I can definately see that they are still there. I can't say for sure if this one bottle will fade all my freckles or not but it is definately fading them. And yes, this stuff is so cheap you can buy lots more. I DO think if you go out in the sun your freckles will come back. Name: blondie Country: usa Comment: Hey friends Just checking in to let you know that I have started using Claudia Stevens Facial Fade and lightening Cream (I bought from Sally's)and today is my third day using it. I am already seeing results! I have not had any skin irritations or skin darkening so far. I believe in about 2 to 3 weeks my freckles will fade away. I will keep you posted and let you know how good the product is and how fast my results come. This is not a permanent solution. My freckles may come back...I will just have to wear sunscreen.If I forget the sunscreen..the price I paid for this product (around six dollars) I can buy more if I need it! I'll talk to you all soon... Good Luck Everyone! Name: bridget Country: usa Comment: Has anyone actually used alitol to remove freckles/know anything about it???? PLease reply! Name: blondie Country: usa Comment: Hey Christina I just recently bought Claudia Stevens Facial Fade and lightening Cream.I was wondering how it is working for you.Also it says on the back label... may cause mild skin irritation and skin darkening. Can you tell me about that? I would really appriciate it! I am also like everyone else here who has tried many things to get rid of freckles. I hope this cream works for you and I and everyone else who has tried it. If it really works that would be wonderful because it is very cheap and easy to find at your local Sally's beauty store.

Name: drmadoc Country: usa Comment: Ok, here's what to do. 1. Go to the dermatologist and get a Rx for Tri-Luma (avaliable only from Dr.s office). Expensive (about $125.00) but it WILL work on face and/or body. May want to use in winter, b/c you will peel (not excessivly)and if you use on arms/legs/chest/ your clothes will cover. 2. Wear sunscreen every day. Period. You are never going to tan, so don't be tempted. Use a good quality self-tanner like Neutragena Spray. Get a Mystic Tan for special occasions. 3. If you want something that works faster (and you can afford it) laser treatment with a YAG laser will make freckles history in one treatment. Cost about $1,500. (US) Some recovery time (approx. 3 weeks ). 4. There is a drug being manufactured by Phizer that is a melanin producing agent. Clinical trials are being completed, anticipated release in 2006. Hope this helps.

Name: To Rach Country: usa Comment: Hey, I dont know wether your post is real or fake but if it is real: There are lots of ways to fade freckles. Something you can buy from a store is Claudia Stephens fade cream, lotion, or serums. They are at Sally Beauty stores. And I dont know your age, but tca will remove all of your freckles, it takes several applications but does work. If you are in school, you'd want to wait till you were on over a week break because your skin will peel. You can talk to your parents about tca if you are under 18. And what does Wonky mean? Sounds like you are really upset w/ your looks. You sound just like I did when I was a kid. I had freckles, glasses, dorky clothes, was skinny w/ big feet, flat chested, had a gap in my front teeth, my hair was way frizzy, my knees,ankles and elbows seemed huge compared to my skinny body. Anyhow, I hated the way I looked, thought I was the ugliest girl in the world. And got made fun of for all of those things and more so that made it even worse. I just wanted to run away from everyone. But guess what? I went through highschool never having a boyfriend, guys never noticed me, only thought I was ugly. Once I got out of school, I started exercising and eating well, doing face masks for clear skin, doing fade creams, straightening my hair w/ a flat iron, bought better clothes and wearing make-up. I also started going to the tanning bed,(I dont anymore, just use a good sunless tanner) and you know what? Guys notice me all the time now. So dont give up on yourself, do what I did, go from an ugly duckling to a swan. And you probably are not even as bad as you think, everyone always notices their own bad features. And lazer treatment is very expensive. You should try tca, it works and is cheap. Name: me Country: other Comment: hey all, Ive read all ur comments and i have freckles too! i bloody hate them and ive tried loads of things (including emailing laser clinics for the age limit!) i gave up on lemon juice for a while but i might try it again.i agree that some people with freckles look really nice but there are others (me)that would die to get rid of their freckles. when i am old enough im going to try and get laser treatment (does anybody kbow how much it costs!?!?!) but until then i have my whole childhood to live through- which is already a pain. i have wonky legs =which the knees point inward, i have frizzy hair, bony elbows, wonky fingers that shoot off anyplace, wonky fingernails, bony shoulders and heaps of freckles and im missing the best part of my life being a child.i wish there was a way to fade freckles instantly. for those (like me) who feel the same way i would visit this website - it gives a list of ways to fade freckles including some ive never heard of and it stopped me commiting suiside- for now anyway! luv rach, how much doz laser cost? Name: don't listen to the dissenters Country: england Comment: In summer i have a few freckles on my face, but most of the time you can't seen them. What a pity! i had a boyfriend who was covered in freckles and he looked sooo cute; especially when he went out in the sun. The problem with freckles is that they provoke a strong reaction in people in that they either LOVE them or HATE them. I guess most people would just prefer to have looks that didn't demand so much attention. It can be hard having a distinctive appearance. People with freckles probably get a more or less equal amount of positive and negative reactions to their appearance but it's human nature to be self-critical and focus more on the negative. Freckles must be attractive to plenty of people otherwise they would have been bred out of the human population by now....and you lot are all still here!!!! Name: Christina Country: usa Comment: To Yessica, I believe that the IPL is a lazer treatment. So that's not something you can buy at Walmart & is probably pretty expensive. Here are 2 things you can buy @ regular stores that people have said worked on freckles. *** Porcelaina-not sure on the exact spelling but think you can get that @ Walmart. *** Sally Beauty Supply store has several fading products. Here is what someone on this forum posted "however i went to Sally Beatuy Supply and bought Claudia Stevens Facial Fade cream and lightening serum and it worked! it completely erased my freckles after 1 1/2 months of usage. one jar should do the trick. Good Luck .... it's only about $5" I went to Sally Beauty today and could not find that exactly but there were several fadeing options. I bought the Claudia Stepehns lightening serum for nighttime use. It was $7.00 I will let everyone know if it works for me or not.

Freckles darken with tca peels as well, but then they peel off. I think the darkening shows that the pigment has actually been affected. So it may look bad right now, but you'll probably be happy with the final results.

Name: Answers to Questions Country: usa Comment: You can get a 10% peel from the store. It is made by Loreal. However, this is a very very low peel so it would take many peels and much time before you start getting where you want. If you dont have the time or patience, this is not the route to go. ***You can get Porcelana at stores like CVS, Walgreens, prescription type stores and probably even Walmart. Just ask someone who works there. And this stuff does take a very long time to work and never will remove the freckles. ****To the person who used a peel one week after just doing one. What % peel did you use the first time? and what % did you use the 2nd time? Had all of your skin even peeled off from the first one? I DONT recommend doing a peel just one week after. Your face probably is not completely healed yet and remember, your skin only has so many layers. With a peel you are peeling off many layers and brand new skin is what you now have. In one week you still just have the brand new skin(which is sensitive) and you are peeling that off. You should wait at least 4 weeks before you so another peel. ****I think if you want the higer % TCA you can only buy them online. And I strongly recommend you buying it from someone who has feedback you can read. Like on EBAY, several different people you can choose to buy from and read their feedback so you actually know what you are buying. Any nut can put something for sale on the internet, say it is TCA or a certain % TCA when in fact it might not be that at all. Beware!! Name: usa Country: usa Comment: Porcelana ONLY fades freckles and you have to use it for several weeks. It works Very slowly, and freckles are still visible. TCA will actually remove the freckles. You may have to do more than one peel, but it still takes less time than porcelana and it actually removes the freckles. I'm pretty sure it can only be purchased online. I don't know of any stores that sell it.

Country: usa Comment: TCA is not a pill...it's an acid. Do a search online, there is more than one place to buy it. There are a few on e-bay and others on different sites. You have to experiment a little to find the correct percentage for you. You do this by spot testing. The freckles will turn darker and then peel off. Sometimes more than one peel is required to remove stubborn freckles, but this absolutley WORKS!

TCA will remove them. You can order it online from different websites. I got mine from platinumskincare.com. You can do spot peels in different strengths before you do your whole face. This will help you to see which one you can tolerate. The peel I got came with good instructions, just follow them carefully. Start with a low strength and then if you need to go stronger.

Name: Cassandra Country: usa Comment: LOOK AND READ THIS. I have only 1 freckle and I love it. I was in the 7th Grade this year. At the beginning of the school year I knew a girl. She was in all my classes so of course we chatted a few times. She had millions of freckles. They werent pretty. I would hate to dis her and say she was ugly. But she didnt look very nice. So the beggining off the school year she she said she wanted to get rid of her freckles. Amber had no self esteem and was very shy. She wouldnt admit she liked anyone. About 2 weeks later she said she was using lemon juice at night. By Christmas time her freckles did fade but still looked ugly. After Christmas she said the lemon juice wasnt working. Then in Febuary at the beginning she still had alot of freckles. In like 1 1/2 weeks her freckles diappered completely, well almost. She had a few like less then 10 on her face. I asked whered they go and she said that she used a Tca Peel. So apparently it works. Amber also had a few Zits/Pimples that were big here and there. She had none after using them. So to all the people with freckles GOOD LUCK! Oh yea and Amber had big bags under her eyes then in those two weeks those diappered to. I seen a commercial with a woman with red hair and freckles. She was really pretty. At the end of the schoo year Ambers skin was the same as after she used the Tca Peels. Ambr is now more confident and spicy. Now cocky and outgoing. It really made her happy and gave hr tons of self esteem. I hope this helps. Name: SUS Country: india Comment: Lindsay Lohan HAD LOT OF THEM THEY HAVE ALL GONE DID SHE USE Alitol?

Now I have that out of my system here we go.Those in the UK try fade out from boots or superdrug.It does fade them a lot but you have to put it on morning and night 4 2 weeks and stay out of the sun.Unfortunately I can't use it anymore as I developed an allergy to it so BE WARNED.I don't know if they sell it in any other countires, Sorry Name: lee Country: france Comment: i been looking at tca but you have to pay by paypal is there a site that you pay by card .

Unfortunately, I am one of those people with freckles that hates them! 25 years old now. Everyone told me as a child as an adult they would disappear. Well, they're just worse now. I'm up for trying anything. To all you people without them that thing those of us with them are soooo cute, while I appreciate your opinion, you'll just never understand what it does to ones selfesteem when they have them and don't want them! I'd do anything to get rid of mine. They make me look like I have a terrible complexsion all of the time, uneven skin tone. I thought a few weeks ago that my skin looked aged and I needed microdermabrasion but when i took a closer look, I realized it was just an uneven look because of my freckles, and I take very good care of myself! I was my face every day twice a day, I do a mudmask 3 times a week every week, I use ponds moisturizer on my face everynight and under my make up and still...I look like a mess.

It amazes me how so many people hate there freckles so much that they just sit and bitch about them with people they dont even know.

And two, you should know by now if you have freckles that they are there to stay, So embrace them! Learn to love yourselves a little more, freckles and all!!!:) Name: Cassandra Country: usa Comment: LOOK AND READ THIS. I have only 1 freckle and I love it. I was in the 7th Grade this year. At the beginning of the school year I knew a girl. She was in all my classes so of course we chatted a few times. She had millions of freckles. They werent pretty. I would hate to dis her and say she was ugly. But she didnt look very nice. So the beggining off the school year she she said she wanted to get rid of her freckles. Amber had no self esteem and was very shy. She wouldnt admit she liked anyone. About 2 weeks later she said she was using lemon juice at night. By Christmas time her freckles did fade but still looked ugly. After Christmas she said the lemon juice wasnt working. Then in Febuary at the beginning she still had alot of freckles. In like 1 1/2 weeks her freckles diappered completely, well almost. She had a few like less then 10 on her face. I asked whered they go and she said that she used a Tca Peel. So apparently it works. Amber also had a few Zits/Pimples that were big here and there. She had none after using them. So to all the people with freckles GOOD LUCK! Oh yea and Amber had big bags under her eyes then in those two weeks those diappered to. I seen a commercial with a woman with red hair and freckles. She was really pretty. At the end of the schoo year Ambers skin was the same as after she used the Tca Peels. Ambr is now more confident and spicy. Now cocky and outgoing. It really made her happy and gave hr tons of self esteem. I hope this helps.

Name: eewwww Country: india Comment: omg i hate freckles becuz i look retarded with them Name: kayla Country: usa Comment: I hate freckles I think they so ugly, and I have a lot I wish they would all dissappear. Everyone at least has 1, so don't worry about well it is ugly. It aint that bad, and it is no huge deal, some people have it all over imagine that. Name: Freckles - Everyone has a Problem Country: india Comment: I've got freckles and am uglier than most guys but I have a shtunning girlfriend (with the dark tan - must be nature trying to balance itself out there.) Firstly because if you're confident and outgoing enough people love you no matter what you look like. Secondly because you'd be surprised how much a person is more worried about what you think of them than what they think of you. Another tip - if you feel ugly and unwanted, bear in mind that I'm sure you don't have crushes on ugly people yourself. That's nature baby, nobody gives a shit. Become a buddhist or a millionaire if you want to be happy, I'd recommend the prior as it's easier to get there. Name: Freckles - Everyone has a Problem Country: india Comment: If not freckles, you'd hate something else about yourself even more instead. If you have freckles and don't tan, you've inherited a skin gene from the peoples of northern europe who don't have to deal with much sun. Black people have big noses, asian people have less defined faces, latinos tend to put on weight, and your celtic genes mean you have patterned skin - grow up and move on. Think of yourself as a dappled breed of horse or something. Getting rid of your freckles is not going to make people suddenly want you, or give you any more confidence, it's just a placebo you've made up as an excuse to not go out and enjoy being what you are. People say that all the time don't they? Be what you are. How cliche? Or maybe it gets said a lot BECAUSE IT'S TRUE! Maybe this time you should try taking it on board?

It looks completely real and lasts 5-14 days depending on how well you care for your skin. I got my 2nd one today and noone knows it is fake. I am pale skinned and have freckles, now I am tanned and my freckles dont seem so dark. Try it and you will be hooked. Making your Freckles dissapear. I have read on this forum about TCA Peel being able to completely remove all your freckles or just fade them if you want. I needed more information. I went to ebay & searched TCA Peel, then I emailed the people who had bought the product and left feedback. I emailed a ton of random people and asked if it really worked, got rid of all freckles. EVERY single person LOVED this stuff and said it actually makes them dissapear completely. I just found out about this stuff but am going to get some. If you really want your freckles to dissapear, go to ebay, and email the actual people who have bought the stuff, I have found they are very helpful too and will answer tons of questions. I am so thrilled because I hate my freckles. I am still wanting to know if you use the TCA Peel and all your freckles dissapear, if you go out in the sun w/ a strong SPF lotion, will your freckles come back and get really dark. My freckles get super dark and everywhere on my face if I go in the sun and I hate that more than anything.

Name: Mercedes Country: australia Comment: Hi Katy, good on you ! Don't panic too much when you use the acid - there are all these warnings about side effects which they have to put on their so they are not liable. I strongly recommend you try it on little spots first on the different parts of your body before you blanket those area's. I just did my back and I need a slightly stronger solution for that area. I needed a slightly milder solution on my chest. If your skin instantly turns like it is stained with red wine then the solution is TOOO strong. It needs to go a frosty colour - so please make sure you test a little spot first. If the product is too strong for that area the stain like mark will fade over a couple a months - but don't make the same mistake I made.

IF I had power I'd destry this company that makes this type of shit products!@%$^#& P>S>: The pain you experience for at least two days is undescriptible-IT HAS NO NAME~~~~!!!! Name: Mercedes Country: australia Comment: FRECKLES - I REMOVED MINE. Hey guys, I know exactly how you feel, I've had freckles for as long as I can remember and because I have fair skin they just look UGLY. I have tried every cream, pill and even laser treatment, with minimal success with all. Plunket fade is good but I used it for a year and it only slightly faded them and it is really thick and greasy so it made my skin break out all the time. I decided to get laser treatment and just pay the enormous amount of money but before I did that I thought I would try one more thing first. I read that TCA peels - trycloric acid peels, were used at cosmetic surgeons for freckles, so I go onto ebay and bough medical grade TCA peel. It is the only one on ebay that shows a certificate that it is medical grade. It was only about AU$30 incl. freight to australia so i had nothing to lose. It is simple to use, I tested a dark freckle on my face first and after 1 week it was gone. So i used it all over my face. You put the acid on for 1-2 minutes then wash it off. You need to use an antibacterial wash and moisturiser for the next week to keep your face germ free. The first day or two your freckles get darker but by day they start to break up - like they are disolving. About day 5 your skin gets a bit crusty and flaky but I still went to work and it wasn't that bad you need to stay home. After about 8 days my skin starting flaking off and underneath was fresh new skin without freckles. There were a few stubborn ones that were really dark that were still there but I could barely even see them. After a couple of weeks I did a little spot peeling again on these freckles and within a week they were completely gone. It not only got rid of my freckles but it trained my skin. All of my enlarged pores and acne cleared up completely and my skin wasn't oily anymore. Apparently the acid kills the bacteria. It has been 4 months and my skin has remained freckle free and normal. I can't believe it.........once a fortnight I use a glycolic peel - just an over the counter one for 15 minutes but other than that I don't use any other products anymore. I have just ordered another bottle because all of my friends and sister used the rest of mine. One bottle does about 20 peels. I am about to TCA peel my shoulder/chest and arms now that I know it works and the results are permanent. Best $30 I have ever spent. Please do yourself a favour and get this stuff........I'm 32 and for the first time in my life I go out and to work with NO MAKEUP and I love when people get up close because my skin is sooooooo nice !!!!! Hope this helps you out there..... Name: what in the world? Country: usa Comment: What gives with the spelling in here? Do you guys only know phonetics? This is scary.

Name: spotty shoulders, i.e.fucko Country: usa Comment: ok, it has been a long while since my submissions below. But since visiting this site and subsequently showing a few select people this forum, it is gaining popularity and is creating a cult following for people who love to laugh! I grew up with a spattering of freckles on my cheeks and nose and begged my parents to take me to a doctor when I was 9 years old, who prescribed me some Rx strength freckle fader which worked as long as I either stayed completely out of the sun or constantly applied sunscreen which I have done now for over two decades. Now all I have are those freckles on my shoulders and and am considering gluing sandpaper all over one of the wheels on my suv the next time I get a tire rotation at Jiffy Lube, and asking one of them to put the car in drive and rear the engine while the car is suspended and let me scooch up underneath that tire and press my shoulders up against it while it is spinning. To play it safe, then I would go lay in a hot tub of chlorinated water to kill any possible infection, not to mention the further lightening effects the clorine bleach would have on the now exposed melanocyte infested dermis! For those of you who do not have a car, I suggest going to the beach and practice taking running dives in which you turn mid air so you land skidding on the freckled area of concern. Otherwise, tooth whitening gel at night is another option and works! But be careful, can burn, better do it every other night! Ya wonderful idiots!

I have dark hair, blue-green eyes and brown freckles all over me ( my mother's a red head). The only thing I can say for those who want to get rid of them - YOU CAN'T!!!! they're in your skin and will always come out when you expose yourself to the sun in the summer. the best thing to do is use lots of sunscreen - this keeps them faded. Then, use a really good self tanner or try those spray-on tanning booths - This way it will darken your skin WITHOUT bringing out your freckles (it's not the sun!!)Self tanner's darken your skin even if you don't tan well. Trust me, I've tried everything to deal with my obsession with my freckles. Use sunscreen, self tanners, and when you go out at night try dusting a little bronze powder all over you. That's the best thing you can do. Someone told me that when i get older my freckles will fade. I'm still waiting. But, until then......................

Name: not saying my real name Country: england Comment: ok does anyone know how you can get freckles because i really want some on my face because freckles look cute so does anyone know how you get them. thank you Name: INNOVATOR DIETZ Country: usa Comment: ATTENTION: I HAVE FRECKLES all over. Freckles can be faded significatly by trying the following: stay out of the direct sun during 10am to 4:30 pm, If you go out during those times where a hat or sunscreen. walk near trees whenever possible. White hats are a good choice but must be accompanied with suncreen. Ray penetrate lighter colors easily! Also put fresh home grown aloe leaves on burned skin if you get burned. If you are like me and have not figured the above techniques out until its to late then ge IPL treatment not laser its safer and they will go away but its going to cost about $500-$1000 for 3 treatments. Do not get more than 3 treatments because as with anything EXTREME is bad, moderation is key! YOU CAN SUNBATHE BUT DO IT AT THE TIMES SUGGESTED! I SUNBATHE AND NO NEW ONES HAVE APPEARED unless i go out at the time I told you not to! PERSONAL STORY freckles are unattractive to me if they are to dark but I only have one like that the rest are reddish like my skin so they blend together well if I follow the strps I suggested to you above. As for attracting a mate. It was hard as I was younger and less confident but now I'm 21 and I have a purpose. I help others by being a mentor to younger people. Since I started helping others I have been more happier and outgoing and confident. The girls are easy to get now. Yes my freckles are not that dark but they are plentiful. Up close they are visable but all the woman I'v dated don't mind them. My experince is that fair people like myself usually don't like me as much but darker people have major attractions to me. FOR EACH HIS OWN AND FOR EACH THERE IS A MATE. BUT REMEMBER my suggestions for lightening and ridding of the freckles you have. Don't sunbake, they might blend FOR SOME at first but as you age they the sun bathing as ayoung person will make you have wrinkled, sun spotted skin from cancer.

Today I was just looking through my parrents cosmetics cabinet and found this thing in a white container called "Banishing cream" and it's by Avon. it's a skin lightener with suncreen. Well I want to remove all the freckles from my face too since I also hate them and would like my face better withought them. I'm not sure if it will work for me though because I am a male and the back says, "Banishing cream helps women with all ages to correct the problem of skin discoloration in as little as six weeks" but it doesn't say that it wont work for men so I'd thought I'd start to give it a shot. It also says "it gradually fades dark areas, freckles, age spots and discolorations which may occur from pregnancy or from the use of birth controll pills. So I wonder if that means that it won't remove freckles caused by sunlight. Well I really hope that this stuff will work for me and assume that you can just get this treatment at any body shop. I caution you all though that it's a very noticeable brown cream when you have it on your face but I gues it will still work if you just have it covered individually on your freckle's so no one will notice it.

And just imagine, what are you gonna tell your kids if they happen to be as freckled as you? (what are you gonna project to them?). Are you gonna tell them "freckles are cute but I had to erase mine 'cause I looked like shit"?, and pass them you insecurities so that the good old tradition can be kept alive?, or are you gonna have the guts to be an example for their self esteem.

When applied to the face, the resulting titration and subsequent redox reactions will yield a clearing of freckles (along with most of the layers of flesh on the particular body part). JK Dr. E.

Make sure that you moisturise afterwards though. I personally use products from a range called Botanics from a shop/pharmacy called Boots. They brighten the skin and contain hibiscus, and I found that they work well for me, nothing drastic, but it helps. Hope this is helpful. xx Name: Jessica Country: australia Comment: I think that it is so rediculous that all these people are putting themselves down and ridiculing their appearances.Wake up to yourselves, their just a few marks on your skin, i have them everywhere and no one teases me, and if anyone ever did i would just assume they were jealous. Freckles add character to your face. Just look at all these models that are covered from head to toe in them, they are still considered beautiful. how do you feel for people covered in burns or scars? THEY have a reason to dislike their appearances because they have been mutated. Freckles come naturally and there is nothing you can do about them, except learn to like them, they arent THAT bad.

It feels like getting popped with grease. I don't think it was worth the money. Each area needs to be treated several times. I have so many freckles that it would take forever to treat my whole back several times. I would day the area is about the size of a quarter, and they may do 10-15 areas in one treatment.

AlL OF YOU OUT THERE, YOU HAVE NUTTIN TO WORRY BOUT OKAY x Name: alitol & Felitex Country: usa Comment: Alitol can be very dangerous. The herbs used in it are very strong. Keep it refrigerated, only take one a day, same for Felitex. do not swallow the capsule, open it up and take out the inside of the capsule, then drink at least 4-6 glasses of water to flush it. Been 1 month now on both of them this way, the freckles are begining to fade and are disappearing.....If you do not swallow the cpasule it is not time released and will cause much less problems, using the inside only will still give the same fading effect. They do work....just takes precautions and time to use it safely.

In my opinion, burning to the point of peeling is seriously asking for it, and so is burning off your skin with a fork (or a spoon). On top of that, neither is going to make you look more attractive (think big picture!). Here's my advice. Retinol products can work pretty well at fading freckles IF you're committed to staying out of the sun (it makes the skin more sun-sensitive and the sun will only bring the freckles back, anyway). The cream should be tinted yellow, or it doesn't have enough retinol in it to do anything. AHA creams are a similar type of thing to lemon juice, but less smelly. Another thought: see a dermatologist, and tell him or her how much this affects you. It can't hurt. Also, overdoing it with retinol or AHA will cause your skin to be irritated and peel, which is also not attractive. Ultimately, caring for your skin will be prettier than not caring for it. Name: fathead magee Country: usa Comment: i'm sick of people complaining about a little bit of freckles across their nose. that's stupid. however, full body coverage is a different matter and can sometimes hinder a person's attractiveness. a couple of light brown spots don't count. i'm pale with deep brown spots all over. i know what it really feels like, and how important physical beauty really is. people seem afraid to admit it, seeing how it's not the most admirable trait of the human race, but how you look affects every aspect of your life starting with you personality. there's nothing wrong with someone trying to fix something they view as a problem.

But there is another scam by Alitol going on here that is more subtle. They are making posts supposedly by people who are desperate and hate their freckles; purely in order to "spin" the point of view that freckles are ugly, to create more demand for their sleazy "product". Not all of these posts by Alitol stooges actually mention the product itself! They are more devious than that. They just want to create a climate of hatred of freckles. And then maybe ask if there is a cure at the end of the post. Then they get a different stooge to mention Alitol in the next post. So, if there is anyone here who wants to say they hate their freckles (cos SOME people really do - though few hate them as much as the Alitol stooges would like us to believe)), just show us you are genuine and not an Alitol stooge by putting at the bottom of your post the phrase "Alitol is a worthless scam and will never cure a single freckle". Then we can have proper debate without constantly having to wonder what post is by these Alitol scumbags and what post is genuine. Name: Ruler Of The Pictish Nation!!!!

They claim to be "descendants of the Picts" (or that may just come from the media). If you do, take some male friends with you (just in case) and leave your wallet at home (these knuckleheads are gypsys and are supposed to be very good pickpocketers; the little kids just like other groups are the best ones so don't be fooled).

BTW, you HAVE to figure that if not every white person get them, then there must be some genetic difference. You also have to remember that this world has been turning long before 0 A.D., so since that time a race probably was bred out. Look at blondes. I'm sure way back when, there was a region on this planet earth where nothing but blonde hair/blue-eyed people lived. Since then, they have travelled to different regions and bred out with different white and other races. Name: Tamzin Country: other Comment: Really, you were seriously born with freckles??

Ok maybe thats going a bit far but come on lets show em what we're made of! Name: Tamzin Country: other Comment: yeah but remember your not born with freckles. People get freckles if they have fair skin and have been over exposed to the sun when they were younger. And people with red hair always have fair skin.

Country: usa Comment: One thing I do know: There had to be some race that consisted of people who had red hair and freckles. They are most common combination. Since GB is the place you find them the most, it's the most likely place where they're from. Some of those scientist may be people who might be full-blooded white and have no such traits in there ancestry. Here in America on rare occasions, we have white people who try to say that Native Americans came from Asia (which is all an attempt to justify taking someone else's land). These types of claims are also conducted in Austraila when discussing the aboriginies. BTW, you might run into claims that we are from the Black Sea area or the Middle East. These claims are obviously false. Humans aren't much different than animals, in which, the race would be native of an environment most habital to them. What usually happens to a descendant of the Picts after they've been out in the sun for an hour? BTW, take a look at Bob Marley. His father had Pictish blood and you can tell. Bob had freckles. BTW, Bob grew up in a very sunny place (Jamaica) and died of SKIN CANCER. Name: fair skinned Country: other Comment: IPL- The best thing. no after effects. No scars. It gradually fades and no one will ever know you got IPL! So you can do it behind your parents back if they don't want you to do it. More expensive than laser but safer. Check it out.

Country: usa Comment: Tamzin, the Picts were the natives of Great Britain (maybe Ireland too). I'm sure that there are alot of people who have red hair, and/or freckles, and/or that very dark pale skin in your country. The race has been bred out for 1200 years (notice I said "bred out") you probably have alot of people who have one of these racial attributes but not all. BTW, the native population may not have been that large. In North America, the native population wasn't very large for the land they lived on, either. How old are you? I can't believe that you weren't taught this in school. I bet you live around Glasgow and don't live in the Scottish Highlands?

There is no chead way to get rid of your freckles permnantly. You can have lazer surgery or you can use fading creams.

You want a solution, it's been there all the time. Reverant application, patience and a little faith and you'll get the time-proven results. It could take months to get what you want, but that was also the deal with this Alitol. Use moisturiser to keep skin from drying if the lemon juice is making your skin tight, and use sunscreen and a cap and seek shade, no way to get around that - sorry. Get a fair, clear complexion, and then if you really want a tan just fake it! No shame, and no skin cancer either. :) Name: Paradoxy Country: india Comment: Alitol is a jack-product scam. Of course if you're having any changes your bound to convince yourself it's to do with the pills you're swallowing three times a day. It's a pill with a collection of herbs, not special ones either, and not even the same ones they originally say it is. Screwy product, scam, if it seems suspicious don't try and convince yourself it is. Trust your gut instinct - Alitol is a scam. Name: alitol user Country: usa Comment: i just read the post about alitol having the same ingredients as Vanity and it does. In fact since I started taking alitol my breast have grown more than a cup size. I am 17, so I just figured that maybe I was going threw another growth spurt or something, but I think it may be the alitol. As far as the freckles, I have been taking them for more than a month and have seen no results. I think the tanning pills that Selmedica sells really do work because I have seen people taking them and it works, but it is just iodine, which dies your skin. Pretty much the same thing as sunless tan, but it dies you from the inside out. Maybe the Vanity works, but I really didn't want to enlarge my breast, which is what happened.

Name: kathy Country: usa Comment: i think im going to try that salycic acid thing..sounds likea good idea..it is safe i hope.. Name: Mina Country: usa Comment: well I dont know about the alitol thing because I havent tried it. But I can tell you a good temporary to permanant solution. It only costs about $8 but it is a pain in the ass and I dont know if it will work on every body but it works on me. I have freckles and dark moles. There are several wart cures out there, many different brands. But they are all a solution of salicylic acid. Basiclly you are supposed to paint it on the wart and it makes the wart dissappear. I have painted it on freckles and moles and it makes them dissappear too. I end up with a little white spot that eventually colors in and blends with the skin around it. You have to paint it on several times. I always pull it off the next day which is why I probably get the temporary white spot. It is really a mini chemical peel it you think about it. It is simply irresistable to peel off the film the next day. It doesnt hurt and the skin below the film is noticably lighter. Dont be too hard core about it though or you will end up with a bloody mess. Paint it on every other day to start with. Every one is different. Like I said it is a real pain in the ass but if you do it enough times it just doenst come back!!! But for those of you with freckles on the face be careful because if you do it too much too soon people will know you are messing with your skin because it can be really irritating. Experiment and you will find how often you can do it. Post your results Im curious to see if it works on other people. Some brands wart remover with salycilic acid ==Compound W==Dr. Shouls wart remover===Durafilm==etc. No presription needed.

I'm just going to tell about my experience with Alitol to date. I have been taking it for 2 weeks now and I have not seen any results at all from it. And they also make it impossible to get your money back on it. They give you 90 days (3 months) from the date of purchase to get your refund, but the catch is, you have to take it for the full 90 days for the refund. Not only that, but they start counting the day they recieved your order. It takes a few days to get to you, so I dunno if it works or not because I have only been taking it for 2 weeks, but I do know that the refund is a scam.

You are so lucky!! I am covered in freckles and moles, the older I have gotten the more and more I get!! Everytime I go outside I DRENCH myself in SPF 30 but I still get at least 15 or more new freckles/moles everytime I step outside!! I dont get it bc I always were sunscreen. My mom has alot of freckles but they are really light and I never noticed them until she pointed them out but my dad has them like me but worse bc he is older. None of my friends have freckles or moles and if they do its only 1 and they freak out and tell me how ugly it is but do they relieze that I have that one ugly mole/freckles ALL OVER MY BODY and by them saying theres is ugly is the same as them saying my hundreds are ugly, it really hurts my feelings and make me depressed!! I am SO embarassed and ashamed to wear short sleeves and shorts. I have so many on my neck too so no clothing can cover that up =0( I refuse to go swimming or to the beach bc 1. I cannot stand seeing my friends wear NO sunscreen and get a beutiful tan with out any spots at all! and 2. I do not want any more freckles! I do not have red hair but I am part Irish Im also Itialian so my skin isnt really light but people still tell me I would be prettier if I was tan, and had no "spots". but they dont understand I cannot tan!!! I tried self tanner and it made me tan but it made all my freckles and moles darker. I know you are all saying it doesnt matter what other people say and that if you love yourself others will too BUT I cannot love myself bc of my freckles. I have missed out and held back on So many things in life bc of them. I cant even wear certain clothes that show my back unless I wear my hair down. I cannot stand It!! They are all over my face, neck!!, chest, ARMS, legs, hands, and stomach. They are not the kind like Lindsey Lohan, they are bigger and darker but not as many but still ALOT!! SO many people have made rude and mean comments about them and how gross they are and even my best friends say stuff they act like I chose to have freckles, I want to get them lasered off but theres so many that It would take years and Lemon juice doesnt fade my freckles and definetly not moles... When I was younger I would pray for them to go away.. me and an old friend of mine once did a witch spell from a website to get them away lol, none of that worked. I have absolutly no self esteem bc of them. I dont think my face and body is that bad but when I have my freckles I think Im absolutly HIDEOUS!! I get more and more every single day even if I dont go outside at all.. Im going on vacation to the beach for 2 weeks with my cousin who is half arabic so she is really tan and has no freckles and she keeps telling me how it will be so fun to lay out and tan!!

Why would any of you want to be another mono-chromatic, bland, boring girl!? Honestly, lets not kid ourselves. Freckles are beautiful. They are liberating and set you apart from the crowd. Not only do they make you different(in a good way) but they are also extremely attractive. The men that love freckles are the best kind, they truly understand and appreciate beauty, if you really want to see people's true opinions on beauty you should look at any site for photography or art. Photographers and artist have talent for finding beauty and showing it the best, and any artist will tell you that freckles are perfection. Don't ever doubt yourself, you are beautiful not to mention special. P.S--> Read the poem "Pied Beauty" by Gerard Manley Hopkins. "A face without freckles is like a night sky without stars**" Name: Jenni Country: usa Comment: Come on now... are you all absolutely crazy!? FRECKLES ARE AWESOME! Honestly, why would you EVER wanna be just another mono-chromatic, bland girl? Let's not kid ourselves. Freckles are absolutely beautiful.

Attention to all of you that have a problem with freckles and all of you without them...you're missing out. <3 a fellow freckled friend PS! Read the poem "Pied Beauty" by Gerard Manley Hopkins.

They make me look so ugly and make-up doesn't cover them. My fave is covered in them. All of my friends have clear skin and I envy them. I dont want to use bleaching cream because I think it will make me look like Michael Jackson....(will it?). Well anyways anyone that can help me or give me advice.....PLEASE! Name: suzie Country: usa Comment: i have freckles and i used Alitol witch is a herbal pill i have researched the ingrediance and found nothing in it was harmfum (go to Alitol.com to buy it) i have been using it for about two and 1/2 months and the freckles on my face are much lighter but still there however i am still in the process of taking it because it takes about 3-6 months to completly get rid of all your freckles. i really havent noticed a change with the freckles on my body yet but hope to see a sign of them clearing up soon. E-mail me with any questions at twojkl@aol.com. i really hope this works for me and every one else that tries to get rid of there freckles i know how all of you feel. good luck to all of you!!!!! Name: Krystle Country: usa Comment: Hey fellow freckle people. lol. I can COMPLETLY relate about hating my freckles. I thought I was alone on that too, so it's nice to read about so many of ya'lls expierences too. Ever since elementary school, my freckles have been a nusance. I remember being at a slumber party and my friend got this book on how to deal w/ girl issues and stuff, well anyway there was a page on freckles and I was like, "ya'll, I really hate my freckles. Are they the first thing you notice when you look at me?" And they said, "Yea, they are...." and they just all looked at me with this half discusted/half pitited look on their face. And that was like when I was 11. When I was around 5, a baby sitter tried to actually rub off a freckle on my leg because she thought it was dirt or something....Every time I look in the mirror, that's what I look at first. And hate them and i've even prayed for them to go away! When I'm in a conversation, I worry that people are only looking at them. Most of ya'll sound like you have a "sprinkling" of freckles on your faces. Like little cute light ones. Well, I have a couple well placed dark freckles that drive me beserk!!!! I've even cut the skin on my arms and chest to rub off the dark pigment. It worked on my arms, but they came back darker on my chest. But, I don't recommend doing that and I'm done with hassling with these "hell spots". So, I'm throwing out all of my bleach creams that have NEVER worked, and ordering Alitol right away! I've done some research and I really think that it will be effective. No messy creams, or harm astringents. Just three pills a day. It has a 92% sucess rating,(which is good enough for me!)and has been given the GRASE status by the FDA Generally recognized as safe and effective and have helped over 97,000 people rid themselves of unwanted freckles. So I'll keep ya'll posted on the results....c ya! Name: Grrrrr Country: england Comment: All you lucky bastards in the usa can buy alitol we can't here in the UK. THANKS A LOT!!

Selmedica is working on resolving the problem so as to resume international delivery soon. You've probably been refunded, but soon they will be delivering internationally again, maybe you should try again then.

Name: dorothea Country: other Comment: Thanks Junobunny and for all the other comments. it's nice to get things off my chest to people who understand and don't think I'm a bit mental! Cheers for the support. I've never done anything like this before or ever really use the internet, so it's new and it's pretty cool! So thanks again, and to anyone thinking about that 'miracle' cure, I would take serious precautions. Call me cynical & skeptical, but it sounds like a bit of a rip off! Ask your doctor first maybe. Or check the FDA coz it could be harmful. Just be wary and do plenty of research, I'd hate for people to be ripped off or for someone to profit from someone's insecurity or desperation.

Name: curious Country: usa Comment: Parodoxy...Since Selmedica won't ship the Alitol, are they also refusing to refund your money?

What kind of company tells you it ships internationally and makes you pay $220 dollars and then with a single-sentance email says unfortunately they don't ship to the UK!?! It's an abominal scam and I am bristling as I write this!! I want to see this false company torn apart because what they have done to me is plain injustice! What should I do?! Don't buy from them you'll get cheated!!! Name: dorothea Country: other Comment: I feel embarrassed writing this as it seems soooo shallow for an able-limbed, seeing, hearing, reasonably intelligent person to think. However, my skin is so pale it's almost blue, and I'm coverd in freckles. In summer, should I dare to flash my flesh, I go pink and look like corned-beef hash with dollops of gravy splashed on. I am forever being told by my family that I'm pretty etc and most of the time I'm confident and gregarious. But in summer, I feel hideous coz of the pasty skin & freckles, they're all over me. It really gets me down and my self-esteem is at an all time low. It interferes with my love life too, and although my boyfriend says he loves me, I know he loves tanned skin and used to use sunbeds to get a tan himself! It's ruining my confidence and my entire life revolves around it. I can't go to the beach or on holidays with my friends coz I feel ashamed. Most of them don't even know how I feel coz I know they won't understand.I could write a book on the emotions I've felt but somedays (in summer) i get so depressed, I can't even be arsed to get out of bed. I need help! I've tried a phsycologist, fake tans etc but they haven't worked, or they do, but only temporarily. Like I said, I count my blessings, and I do feel terrible for people out there who are worse off, I really do. But that still don't help. I am normally so positive and happy and all my friends turn to me for help & advice or to make them laugh. Anyway, don't want to feel sorry 4 myself, and good luck to every1 else who feels like me - and let me know if anything genuinely works.

Name: rose Country: england Comment: a mixture of lemon juice grated carrot and crushed peas will help fade them Name: Ruler Of The Pictish Nation!!!!!!!!! Country: usa Comment: A little education here for all of you. Freckles and red hair come from a race known as the Picts. People always associate these people with Ireland, not many people have that look in that country. They are prodominately found in Scotland, the home of the Pict. We ruled that country up until 500-600 A.D. and have since been bred out due to white people raping and slaughtering our people (you Irish and Scottish Picts know all about this). People who are bred with the Pictish race can take solace in the fact that you have aboriginal blood and are NOT full-blooded caucasian. For those of you who feel ashamed of who you are, please don't ever let me catch you saying that. I have black hair but am covered with what you people refer to as freckles. BTW, clowns are supposed to be a slanderous racial stereotype against our people (and that's a fact) and next time you see one on TV or the circus, you should be VERY angry like me!!!!! Finally, one day we will start our own mass exodus/zionist movement. Anyone who is bred with our race will return to Scotland. Anyone in Scotland who is NOT bred with us will be kicked out where they can live amongst their own kind in another country!!!!

You aren't born with freckles, they come from the sunshine. Where sunblock, your freckles won't darken if you do. I know that nobody wants to hear that you are fine the way you are..but honestly you are. Do you really want to look exactly like everybody? Plus, look how many others have freckles...you're not alone. I know many people who'd love to have freckles, so just have self confidence and make the most of them.

Name: I love freckles Country: other Comment: Although I myself do not have freckles, my father did and my fiance is covered in them. We are african-american, and were I live you very seldomly see people with freckles, so my fiance was teased repeatedly as a child, and it has deeply affected him and his self-esteem. My advice is directed more at the parents - please let your children know that they are beautiful and that freckles are not weird or ugly! To the kids with freckles, no matter what anyone may say, you are beautiful. There are people in this world with far worse issues that they must deal with. Your true friends will not care whether you have freckles or not, and belive me, if you show people that you are happy with yourself and your body, and just let their negative comments roll of your back, they will notice that they are not having any effect and teasing will most likely stop. Accentuate your other qualities and be friendly and outgoing - no one can hate or tease you for being a pleasant and confident person.

Freckles are beautiful. My face, shoulders, back, and chest have been covered with freckles for as long as I can remember. My mother used to tell me that freckles were kisses from the sun. I love how they glow after I've spent a day outside. After all, I'm rather fair-skinned, and it's the closest thing to a tan I can hope for! I have never been teased for my freckles, and I myself have never thought less of myself for having them. Be thankful that you have something unique and different about you. I know people that would love to have freckles. Most freckled people have beautiful complections and have no need to wear foundation...so don't fret so much about something so trivial.

I have many many freckles on my face and most of them do not bother me but a few of them i would love to get rid of, or at least get them a little lighter. I feel so self-conscious about the way I look. If anyone has any suggestions on how to get rid of freckles or how to just fade them a little bit please e-mail me at MiszmeGan4@aol.com I am open to ANY ideas, comments, or suggestions! Thanks for your time. Name: ... Country: other Comment: freckles are just like a tan but in tiny spots all over, so ppl with tans are just 1 big freckle. thats how i look at it anyway. if u think about it logically, to get a tan u go in the sun, to get rid of a tan u stay out of the sun, let it fade, and protect ur skin so it dosent get burnt. thats what u do with freckles u just protect ur skin when ur in the sun and dont try to tan cos fair skinned ppl just cant, its not possible unless u fake tan. so dont be jealous of tanned ppl, any sign of darker skin on a person is a sign that the skin is damaged anyway. at least us fair skinned ppl wont have burnt skin looking like leather when were older! cheers Name: lucky Country: australia Comment: chill out guys, it's not worth the stress. perhaps u enjoy the drama? if u really wanna change, then sunscreen and sensible exposure is ideal. To repair damage, then i really think a peel, or laser therapy are your only other options. but these are expensive, and not suitable for dark skin types. try to maintain perspective guys, and focus on what u can change(eg health and fitness, hair and clothes, ...a spunky attitude). Better still get skilled, achieve some other goals, get INTERESTING people! DON'T BE A HATER.

There are many creams that work but take time so try some and accept who you are don't worry i think the only time freckles look bad is when they are dark black and above the lip but they are a small aspect of the person you are so get a lightener and let them fade overtime Name: YUCk Country: usa Comment: i have freckles on my shoulders and i hate wearing tanktops becuase of it!! is there anyway i can make them go away???? :( email me at lovemeevryday@Aol.com Thanx Name: YUCk Country: usa Comment: i have freckles on my shoulders and i hate wearing tanktops becuase of it!! is there anyway i can make them go away???? :( Name: Hasina Country: england Comment: Hi i have freckles all over my face and im sure they are getting worse..

Yeah i have tried covering them up but when i use makeup or concealer it either makes me look to white or makes my face look really orange. I am also a redhead, people say i have the most beautiful hair in the workd, i am very unique and all i can suggest is to find a shade that is right for you and make sure you do not use cheap makeup. try bare essentails or sheercoverage. Redheads are beautiful...

I have lots of freckles, especially on forehead, and I am now using hydroquione and lactic acid product, which seems to be working slowly but surely. It teaches patience. It took years to accumulate all these freckles and a lifestyle change to rid them for the years to come. I also wear 30 spf sunscreen everyday. I'm more concerned about aging prematurely then anything else. Hang in there, you're definitely not alone!

Name: crustacean Country: usa Comment: hi i am 23 and have freckles all over, bu i have seen people with worse. i don't like my freckles, but i was teased more about my white skin, i live in hawaii. i would much rather have flawless tan skin, but me hating myself cause i am not that way is stupid. there are so many things i wish i could change about my apperance, but try to change the one thing you can change--your self. i was teased, yes, but it was i who let what some people said about me dictate who thought i was. i can not help my freckles or white skin, but i can to try to change my attitude about myself. i notice when i have a better self image i am noticed more and people magnitate around me as opposed to them being repelled by the almost visible cloud above my head. i know it is hard sometimes, but face it if you have more than a few freckles they arent going to go away. everyone has things they aren't happy with. and as for those who tease, they arent happy and have to drag someone down to make themself feel better. dont join their misery. Name: Antonio Country: mexico Comment: I agree with you Tasmin. Freckles can only be one part of the whole of a persons features. I think that the minute one begins to see each person as a whole, thats when one stops feeling inferior or superior to others. Besides, if we only see what we want to see, then were missing out on a whole lot. Cya Name: Tasmin Country: other Comment: I used to really hate my freckles, it seemed thats all people noticed me for. I tried the whole foundation thing but it turned out patchy and too noticable. Now I just apply sunscreen and tinted moisturiser they seem to look good with a freshface. Try not to focus on them so much, focus on a good feature they really are cute when you look at them with your other features not just "the freckles" if you get my meaning. Name: Antonio Country: mexico Comment: Hey fellas, If you want information on fading anything that you dont like of your skin, well you can consult Michael Jackson about it. To me, freckles are just another type of skin, and are as beautiful and graceful as black, white or any other type of skin (all of them are a God given individuality). If you feel ashamed of freckles, then yourre just going along letting racism manage your life. Besides, if you dont respect yourself, how can you expect others to respect you (what you feel is what you project). If you have a freckle problem, the solution is not gonna come from someone who hates freckles. I have freckles all sizes and shades and I have had all kinds of comments about it (mostly good ones), but whether theyre good or bad, I try to put them in their own perspective. To all of you out there who hate their freckles, well I know the best way to fix your problem (it never fails), quit hating freckles.

I really hate them and would undergo any type of surgery to get rid of them. Is there anything I can do. Name: try this on for size Country: usa Comment: I think freckles are really neat! I wish I had them. I do have a good sprinkling of them on my shoulders and i really love them. They are rather cute and add character to this otherwise sterile blank world. Bc the majority dont have freckles doesnt mean that not having them is correct or better. Afterall, in some parts of the world everyone has freckles. Like, Ireland for example. That explains why red hair and freckles are such a common combination. If you have freckles you are probably somewhat Irish and you should be proud of that bc its an awesome culture and i know that the Irish never feel ashamed of their heritage. Be proud of who you are bc you cant be anyone but you and your stuck with you forever. So if ppl make you feel bad about having freckles just them something like "The irish are better in bed." Besides, everyone loves an Irish girl!

I am a beautician and part time model. I use to have a billion freckles on my face.

At night, I wear alpha hydroxy cream which also helps them fade. Name: gigi Country: other Comment: I have had freckles for 38 years and as a child I was always teased because I am not white. I have accepted them but nothing gets rid of them. Use sunblock for prevention and makeup for coverup. A sprinkling of freckles is quite cute but I think mine are excessive. People have always commented on them. As adult most have been complimentary. However I have had people come up to me and say "you should really do something about your skin" as though I went to a boutique and chose my looks. Just lessen the intensity with makeup and remember they are only one aspect of your looks and character does count for a lot!!!Freckles can be beautiful if you accept them and make the most of your other features and forget about them. Concentrate on other people get outside yourself. Have a good life! Name: college student Country: usa Co
