how to whiten neck - #14002

Kabir

I am really frustrated with the darkening of my neck and not sure how to whiten neck skin effectively. I’ve noticed it getting darker over the past few months, and honestly, I don't know what's causing it. Like, I use sunscreen regularly and try to take care of my skin, but it seems like nothing is working. I've even tried a few over-the-counter creams that claim to lighten skin, but they haven't made much of a difference. I work in an office, but when I step out, I guess that my neck gets a lot of sun exposure from driving. I'm not sure if that’s contributing or if it’s just a natural thing aging? My friends have suggested natural remedies like lemon juice or yogurt, but I'm nervous, what if I irritate my skin or nothing happen? How to whiten neck skin without causing damage? I saw some websites swear by some homemade pastes, but do they actually work? I’ve heard that chemical treatments can be effective but kinda worried about side effects. The darker neck isn't just something I'm self-conscious about, it just feels like it makes me look older than I am. If anyone has tried specific treatments or has tips on how to whiten neck safely, your input would be super helpful!
