Does anyone know natural ways to remove or lighten freckles? 🙊

I dunno why you'd want to do that, freckles are great 😊 I wouldn't lighten or bleach skin, it can cause a lot of damage, just use some concealer or powder if you want to cover them, but you should embrace them :)

I've heard lemon juice can help

Victoria I don't like mine 🙈 I want to remove them until summer because then I won't be able to wear makeup with all the water.
Mary I'v heard that too but I think it dries the skin

There is no way to remove freckles if you try lemon juice it will also lighten the skin around the freckles so it looks awkward.

Oh well I'll have them hah I don't have any 😝 Lemon juice does dry the skin, but moisturiser can help although I personally wouldn't advise it.

Christina if I put it all over my face would it look natural?
Victoria thanks for the advice ♥

Kinda of, I have dark freckles everywhere (even on my lips and eyebrows) so I know how you feel, you can try to spot treat them with lemon juice, don't put it all over your face because like everyone has said its drying, I have tried many things and nothing worked because mine are so dark, then I realized how much I love them!

Christina mine are brown so I think I won't have a problem. I'll try to spot treat them with lemon juice, and I hope it will work. Thank you anyway♥

Cut a lemon in half and rub it on your face

I had freckles but used products to lighten my face like Kojic acid soap and arbutin cream and they went away.

Also let me add that most of the time your freckles will go away on there own the older you get (unless your a ginger or albino)

Nothing is going to magically make them go away, if you have them it's because your skin doesn't have pigmentation which is why people get freckles to begin with. I have naturally red hair so you can imagine how many freckles I'd have and over the years I've been wearing makeup they've faded to an extent but whenever I'm in the sun for a few hours without makeup on, bam! They're back. Try putting sunscreen on your face everyday for a few months and you might notice they'll fade a little bit :)

Also, just because somebody is ginger doesn't mean they'll always have/get freckles. @ Christina.

^ I know I was saying if they do they tend not to go away like other people because (most of the time) there skin is on the pale side.

Just because some bodies pale doesn't mean their freckles won't fade
