Do you use sunscreen?? If so what kind?

What helps me is a seasalt scrub with honey and lemon lime. Let it 2-3. Mins on ur lip and it will lighten ur lip gradually. Use a moisturizing spf lip balm on ur lips.

Hi" Would you still recommend ht26? Do you think it can lighten 3 shades? What do you think of the new version? Are you still using the hands and feet

So with this method, would lips redarken again? i need tangible solutions to upper and lower DARK LIPS. can you suggest a spf lip balm?

There several suggestions by different people ... Bottomline - you'd need an exfoliator, a lightener and a moisturiser : plus loootsa patience and committment.

For exfoliation - scrubbing with a toothbrush + exfo soap like kojie sans (whenever you take a shower or brush your teeth) is a start. Also using RA and an aha lotion.

For lightening - a niacinamide toner/cream is best bcos its safe n non-irritating for lips, genitalia etc... Some have said Hypprogel cream works for them.

For moisturising - get a lip balm with spf in it. @PrincessIvanka83
