As the summer sun heats up the chances of you getting black spots, discoloration or even really bad sun burn on your face, is really high. Personally, I am not a huge advocate of skin lightening treatments, but I found this video that promises to clear up unwanted pigments in the skin by using something that will cost you less than a dollar. Worth a try...

If you do end up trying this home remedy, please leave a comment and let me know if it worked for you. I will blog about my experience tomorrow.

Just finished watching an ad for Estee Lauder's Idealist. I was shocked to see the commercial ended with three women, (one black, one Asian and one Hispanic,) and a tag to said, "Proven gentle and effective for all ethnicities."

The product claims to be perfect for women of all skin tones. Really? Or is this an ingenious marketing ploy by the big make-up/skin care brand? I wonder what makes this product so different that it can perfect skins of all shades.

Call me crazy but the last time I checked not all women of color face the same cosmetic issues. For instance, I am an olive skin Indian woman. My biggest concern is getting black freckles on my nose. Does this product promise to help me avoid those annoying black dots that show up the instant I step outside in the blazing hot sun, sans SPF 100?
