Mix brown sugar with honey, to make a sort of paste-- you can add however much you want to get the consistency you want. Rub it into your skin, and rinse it off. I don't use it on my face, just on my body as an exfoliant and GREAT moisturizer all in one.

Have dark Knees? Dark mid region (crotch area)?
To start off: when I was young, I fell and scrapped my knees badly, and it never went away after months of lotions and scrubbing. also, I have seemed to develop dark skin around my mid region. no bad reaction, it's just dark, and I hate it.
Well, I had it also in my underarms, and I saw a commercial for dove deodorant that can fix my underarm issue of being dark and rough. surprisingly, IT WORKED! so after that, I had an idea of trying it on my knees, and middle area. after a couple weeks of this, IT WORKED!

To keep my skin at its' best, I wash my face with oatmeal in place of cleanser. This works like a miracle on my skin, but everyone's skin is different, so different people might get different results. So just clutch a small handful of natural, rolled oats and run your hand under lukewarm water to soften the oatmeal. Squeeze the extra water out (I like to put it on my face) and scrub your face gently w/ the oatmeal for awhile. Then, rinse it w/ cold water and pat your face dry. This makes my skin clean, soft, smooth, less oily, and just awesome while gently exfoliating and moisturizing.

For a clear,clean, soft face, apply Pepto Bismol and let it sit for five minutes. If it dries, apply more coats. Rinse with hot water and apply Colgate Toothpaste. When toothpaste dries, apply another coat. Do this three times. Rinse with hot water and wash with any facial cleanser. Rinse with cool water and apply facial lotion. Burning is normal during treatment, but it is totally worth it. Repeat once a week.
WARNING:
Do not use Pepto Bismal or Colgate Toothpaste if you are allergic t any of the ingredients. If rash occurs, discontinue use.

For soft skin (facial), all you have to do is simply rub honey on your face before bed, let it sit for about 5 minutes and then rinse with WARM water. And wah-lah... soft skin.
I have tried this many times and it works wonders for my skin.
Please remember that everyone's body reacts differently and it might not work for you as well as it does for others.
But this remedy in particular has proven itself safe and effective over and over. People always ask me if im wearing foundation.. because my skin is so soft and glowing.
Hope it works for you as well as it does for me.

Okay, so I JUST tried this remedy. I put 1 tsp of milk in the microwave for about 10 seconds. I took it out and mixed 2 tablespoons of honey in it. I mixed for about a minute with the spoon then put some on my fingers and applied it to my face. (this is a mask by the way) After 10 - 15 minutes, rinse it off with warm water and pat dry your face. This helps soften your face and I heard it can make blackheads disappear. Good luck!

Sorry, this is a little bit long!
BUT IT REALLY WORKS!
I was feeling a little adventurous last night, so I made a mask. I mashed up one avacado, and then I diced the pit of the avacado. Then I mixed oatmeal (any kind will work) and milk toether and heated it up for one minute. I washed my face with an exfoliating scrub, dried my face, and applied the mask. I let it sit for about 30 minutes to an hour while watching TV, but it was a little sticky to try to take it off, so you might want to leave it on less than that if you don't have 10 minutes to rinse it out.
This mask is a little bit runny, so I did it while lying down.
My face is crazy soft! WAHOO! I also put some in my hair- it is a little bit harded to get out, but then I put in conditioner and put a towel on my pillow and left it on overnight. I feel reat today! My skin and hair are so soft!
* The more mushed up it is, the easier the mask will go down the drain... I kind of learned this the hard way! :)

For CRAZY soft skin:
I do this about once every two weeks-
I mix olive oil and refined sugar together so that the sugar is not super runny, but moist/coarse when combined with the oil. then, in the tub, i scrub on my legs after I shave. (this also works great on faces, arms, elbows, feet, hands, ect...)It works CRAZY GOOD!! :) Good luck!
P.S. you will be super oily for a little bit, but after you towel off you are good to go- (i probably wouldn't use it on my face, though, if your skin is already super oily)

I get a lot of compliments on my skin after trying this at home scrub. First I take a couple of tablespoons of white sugar (or you can use raw sugar), and mix in another couple of tablespoons of olive oil and add a little vanilla for a nice scent. Use it in the shower as a body scrub and you're skin will turn out super soft.

I have severe eczema and dry skin every where. When I learned of this remedy I wasn't so sure until I felt the hand of the person who told it to me and wow!
All you have to do is make a paste (it works better when it's not runny) of sugar and lemon juice and scrub it in good then rinse off well. If your not a believer, just try it on your hands even once and you'll see immediatly what a difference it makes. Keep using at least once a day and in 1 week wow! In 2 weeks, double wow!!
It is even taking away the age spots! My skin looks years younger! I use this everywhere! Face, body, arms legs, hands, feet.
If you have ever used expensive scrubs throw them out cause this remedy will beat them all!!!!!!! (And is much cheaper!!)
I promise this is the best remedy ever!
Let me know what you think!
TRY IT!!!! :)

What Causes Vitiligo?
The exact cause for the pigmentary disorder remains unknown. However, there are theories suggesting autoimmune link, hormonal connection, genetic tendencies, etc. Vitiligo may be an autoimmune disease. These diseases happen when your immune system mistakenly attacks some part of your own body. In vitiligo, the immune system may destroy the melanocytes in the skin. The familial incidence is almost 20 to 30%. Often observed in the family members. If the parents have Vitiligo, there are more chances of one developing the same. However, it is not a rule. At the same time, numerous cases of vitiligo do not have a relevant family history of Vitiligo.
Vitiligo Tablets Treatment
Treating Vitiligo with our Anti Vitiligo Tablets requires the patient to take regular dose of the pills until the skin is completely clear from Vitiligo.

Soft skin and say goodbye to ashy skin!
Run bath water as hot as you can take it add in clorox bleach a cup or two add bubble bath (any kind) Soak in the tub. Do this once or twice a week for the first month. The bleach removes the dead skin cells leaving fresh new soft skin. After the first month or until you see results go down to two or three times a month whichever you need.
I have done this for years and I never have to apply lotion to keep from getting ashy and my skin sooooo soft.
