Dark Elbows?

Our elbows usually get a lot of pressure. Leaning constantly traumatizes the skin, which thickens as it works to heal and protect itself. And not like our hands and feet, the skin cells on our elbows contain melanin, a skin-coloring pigment. Experts say, the more layers of skin there are, the more opaque melanin appears and the darker the skin looks.

To get rid of dark elbows, try to exfoliate them by rubbing with a lemon wedge. The juice's acid slough off dead skin cells and help new cells grow. Then rinse skin and apply pure virgin coconut oil. The oil penetrates deeply to moisturize and strengthen underlying tissue.

Thank You FC!!!

wow I have never heard of this Liza. I will try this.

Now you have me wondering if it will also work on my face and help even my skin tone.

of course as I am getting older th smooth milky skin is being replaced by slight pink patches, especially on my cheeks.

I use a toner and that does help some. But, this has me wondering. I may just try a few sessions on my face and see what happens!!

Happy weekend Liza!!:-)
