NDB Exclusive: Effective Ways to Get Rid of Dark Elbows & Knees!

Dark knees and elbows are probably the easiest to treat. With these home-made skin bleach tips and solutions, say goodbye to these dark skin spots..... Ride on

These are skin folds that constantly rub against clothing we wear and surfaces they get in contact with. Because they are deprived of normal skin oils, the resulting dryness makes it easier for the skin to get darker too.

Dark elbows and knees – How to get rid of them

There are home-made recipes easy to prepare and topical treatments handy to buy.

Take your pick: Home-made skin bleach remedies!

Mix a paste of 1 tsp Vitamin E, 1 tsp lemon juice, 1 tsp glycerine, and 4 Tbsp milk. Massage and leave on dark knees and elbows for 15 minutes before washing off.

Rub with lime or lemon juice, leave for 10-15 minutes. Soak a towel in hot water and scrub it on dark elbows and knees.

Mix 1 tsp coconut oil and ½ tsp of lime or lemon juice. Do the same way with the hot towel.

Right after shower, massage mustard oil on affected area. Rinse off with warm water.

Another way to use lemon is to cut it into two pieces. Then put each piece on each elbow and leave them on for 15-20 minutes daily (I find this method… uummm… really amusing ).

Make a paste of besan flour or Gram flour and lime juice and apply on elbows and knees. Leave on for 10-15 minutes and then wash it off.

Dark knees and elbows: How to prevent them

Moisturising is key to preventing dark elbows and knees.

If you have olive oil in your kitchen, you can use it to massage on these areas before bedtime. Or simply use your favourite lotion twice a day to keep elbows and knees hydrated.......
