sa mga facial hauses or clinics, some are doing chemical peelings..yung pinagtanungan ko for the elbows 400 lang po...

try to inquire sa mga clinics..

you can use pure calamansi...let the extract stay for like 20 mins... or you can also use nivea whitening, it really does work....i also recommend body scrubbing...

This sucks, I bought the Block and White Ultima because they claim it can whiten elbows and knees, but it's almost 2 weeks and I don't see any difference :\

But if the product itself claims 2 weeks, I guess I have reason to be upset. I'm not getting what I paid for. Sucks worse because my skin is fair but the knees aren't. And I don't even kneel :\ Oh well, the citrus concoctions might work.

^^ never ever use block & white products ... i have friends who used those prods and ended up worsening their skins...
one used block & white lotion before and she had keratosis pilaris from then on...
another one, she used but it darkened her elbows instead of having it whitened...
then another one had marks and scars over after using...so dont ever use this prod.

maybe they already have ugly skins and faces to begin with?

no amount of paints and potions would help them. how about a face and skin change?

be contented.

Where did they use it? I only use it on my knees and elbows, and nothing bad so far (nothing good either). Makapal balat dun e :lol: This is the first whitening agent I tried ever, because they seem to be the oldest, and I assumed, most established.

Am I the only one here who has ok colored knees when the legs are bent, but when flexed, they get darker?

I have a friend who has the same dillema, we both have fair skin, but our knees and elbows are discolored. Her mother told her to use calamansi, and told me to try it too. It's unsightly and unclean to have dark elbows and knees if your skin is fair. I don't wish to be prettier, nor change my color (tan, whiter, or otherwise). I just want to look neat.

^ uh, coz petroleum jelly helps soften the skin thus making it easier to scrub away dead skin cells?

just a wild guess :D

i tried to use Amira Magic Cream and it helped...but you have to be patient to see the results...

2nd avoid placing your elbows on table tops and the likes...lalo na kung may friction it will worsten your skin color...
