moklip answers:


Well...... For your elbows and knees I had the same problem N I started using a bleach lotion every night also I tried a home recipe that my grandma gave me, it is scrub half of a lemon on your elbows and knees twice a week leave it for 3 minutes, and wash it off (be careful not all skin types are the same) for acne I suggest you go to either a facial specialist or a dermatologist, for you face to have a natural glow I totally recommend facials! They work GREAT! I go once a month for the micro-derm and my face needs absolutely no make-up. Good Luck!

How to care for african american child's skin and hair?


My husband and I were not blessed with the ability to have children on our own. We have recently adopted a beautiful baby girl. She is the absolute light of my life. However, my husband and I are white and our daughter is black. I have plenty of black friends who are going to show me how to style her hair when she is a little older but I had a few questions regarding products for her skin and hair. Not all of my friends have children and I want to make sure that anything I use is safe for little ones. I really like using natural products. Are there any mothers out there who can recommend some products to keep her skin from getting too dry? And in the future her hair from getting to dry? Also, any other general new mommy advice would be helpful. Thank you so much in advance.

That's great, I'm really happy for you guys ....My son is half black so he has drier hair and skin than usual. Well his hair inst all the way rough yet, the baby soft hair is falling out and the thicker hair is growing in. I would say it is important to keep them well moisturized. You can use baby oil or some good hydrating non-scented lotion on her skin (if you have any doubts about a product consult your pediatrician), and they have "grease" for her hair. Since african-americans' scalp doesn't really produce any kind of oil itself the hair and scalp can get dry and itchy. Gently comb her hair and part it every half inch or so and spread a thin lair of grease on her scalp, massaging it through the ends of her hair. Good luck hun, and again...congrats on the beautiful baby girl!

is Aveeno good for colored skin?


i am a light skin african american female with dull/combination skin. i'm looking for a skin care line to use everyday. i prefer something from the drug store because i like the convenience. i like the fact that Aveeno uses natural product but i don't see any "color" in the advertisement so i'm not sure if it'll do me any good.

How to lighten skin and keep it that way?


If you're going to say "OMG, Don't lighten it," i really don't care.
It's funny how people who are white can tan their skin but people who are black are ridiculed for wanting to lighten it.


Anyway, anyone know any thing that's not skin-bleach and doesn't have the answer "Michael Jackson" that works?
Also, if you trying Likas Papaya Soap or Mena Products or any other cream that lightens your skin, can you tell me?
Also, which sunscreen SPF should I use? I was thinking of 50, but I'm not really sure if I should use SPF 50.
Also, if theirs a natural way to lighten your skin, please tell me.


P.S. I'm african american o_O.
Oh and if theirs a product that can prevent wrinkles and acne, and remove stretch marks and scars, please tell me ^-^. Thanks

I get what your saying with the whole "dont lighten your skin" thing and how if a white person tans its ok. Unfortunatley it looks "racist" if its the other way around. I have relatively light skin. Its a light light tan and i dont tan at all. Im scared of the sun because if i stay in the sun for 5 minutes im already a couple shades darker. The reason i DONT want to get darker is simply because i like my skin color. So i would not want to be lighter either. Whats wrong with dark skin though? Is it really THAT bad? Anyways... The only "natural" product i have heard of to lighten skin is to rub lemon on you. The juices lighten up the skin. You can even look up "how to lighten skin" on youtube and you can run across some videos.
