Guest guest Posted November 29, 2004 Report Share Posted November 29, 2004 I wasn't aware that frankincense could be used for this purpose. I've read that castor oil works well, as does the juice of a fresh lemon. I've been using lemon juice and my sunspots (hormone spots, medication spots, whatever) are definitely lighter. The juice stings and I have to be careful not to get it on areas of normal pigmentation or they'll lighten up, too, but it's working faster than prescriptions ever did. As for your spots getting rough/dry, that is what happened whenever I used prescription remedies but that would go away when the new cells surfaced. Maybe frankincense has a double action--breaking up the excess melanin while sloughing off damaged layers. Have you tried *gently* scraping the roughened skin to speed it along? jaime Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
