Hi, I am an esthetician and I can help.
You have to battle this three ways. And it is a battle, it won't go away overnight. First you need to exfoliate the skin with a microdermabrasion cream, I think Loreal Makes one now, and so does Mary Kay. Remember that, Manual Microdermabrasion cream. Since you are young, I would say use it two times a week. Especially around your mouth, or the areas that are darkest. Of course it is safe to use all over your face. Or hands for that matter, or anywhere on your body, but that could get expensive. NEXT you have to get some lightening cream or gel. Get one that contains Hydroquinnone 2% (can only get 2% in US, in Europe they sell 4%) check the internet, if you can get Euro version, that is good. Hydroquinnone, lightens the skin, but sloooowwwlly, over a period of time. NOt over night. So skin lightening creams may also contain Kojic acid this also lightens skin. Next you have to AVOID THE SUN AT ALL COSTS. Use a sun screen at all times, even in the winter. YOu have over active melanin cells, and the sun makes them act up even more. If you follow these steps, in time you will see the dark colorations fade. ONe other thing you can use, is buttermilk. It is cheap and plentiful. It lightens your skin. It is not a moisturizer. Splash some on after you wash and rub into skin, gently. It will also lighten your skin. Ssslloowwwly. Buttermilk is an old home remedy that was very popular in the south during the civil war. Try this web site skinstore.com to purchase the skin products that I recommended. You can get buttermilk at any grocery store. The best part about all these products is that they also prevent wrinkles, so you will have lovely young looking skin all your life. I do and I am 52, hardly any wrinkles and I get compliments about my skin all the time.

heyy! well i have the same problem only my pigment is lighter than the rest. my condition is permanent, so i dont know if yours is. but..if its just temporary and you just got it, it could possibly be affects of being out in the sun alot. if its something youve always had, you could see a dermatologist about different creams you can use to make it go away. A temporary fix is also using skin tone blenders. You can find these at CVS, or really any drug store or cosmetic store. You could also use sunless tanner, and/or foundation and/or a concealer stick with your skin tone. hope i helped you!
