Hello mommies.


Anyone has recommendation on how to get rid of those brown patches on face (look like freckles) DIY? Got them after the pregnancies. Many thanks .

Hi linden2000,

I have the same problem. I used to have dull skin and after using brightening product, my face looks brighter but the freckles are more obvious.

It's hard to get rid. Maybe can lighten only.

Thanks for the reminder. Will stay clear of the skin brightening products.

I think no DIY solution will be effective lei...I think best to consult a dermatologist.

Too bad. Thanks anyway.

i read somewhere about standing in front of a boiling kettle for steaming effect. has anyone try that before?


mine is an electric kettle, so not much steaming effect. was looking at the rice cooker last nite and looks like it is a better replacement.

:rotflmao: ya lor, since whenever i open the rice cooker cover, the steam is sure to keep coming up for at least 5min.
just put the face over it huh?
but then, later i contaminate the whole pot of rice with my perspiration.

i've never tried it though, have only read about it.

Can you boil a pot of water in an uncovered pot and use that? Or use your steam iron!

Contaminate? No, it'd be a specialty! :idea:

Not too near hor in case kena scalding effect.
Then you'd have new pink skin to replace your old one.

:rotflmao: :rotflmao: :rotflmao: what about just pour hot water in a basin, use a towel to cover your head and the opening of the basin to get the same effect?

Haha...but he still leaves his dishes in the kitchen sink for the sink fairy to wash! And the clothes hangers pile up by his bedside waiting for the hanger fairy to magically send them to the washing/ironing area...and he can never find the stuff he needs without wifey's help. What to do? You win some and you lose some!

gosh! now i get it!
my hb thinks we r living in fairyland.
so there's a sink fairy,hanger fairy...
