Nar it's not possible to get rid of freckles. You can get rid of moles tho...

To let them fade, most important is to stay out of the sun.. apply moisturiser+sunscreen spf15+ everyday before you walk out of the house..

And the lemon juice thing.... vitamin C just helps to peel off the top layer of skin so it looks healthier... you can do that... but dont do it too often since your skin needs time to heal and repair itself..

Oh, and to prevent freckles... apparently alot of antioxidants help... stuff like actual green tea (not the sugar lipton crap), umm tomatos, capsicum, etc...

Yeah that's all I can think of atm... =]

my mum had a pigmentation on her cheek where she had to get something zapped off, and she used lemon juice. It sort-of worked, but then we went on a holiday to singapore and there was an incredible amount of skin whitening agents. She ended up buying a little (toothpaste sized?) tube of some garnier skin whitening thing, she used that and it did fade

but if you're entire face/body is freckled i dont know how good this stuff would be. If its just a few on your nose it should be ok.?

sunscreen (to prevent more!) is your best bet if you are extremely freck;ed

didn't you hear? the freckles belong to george, and the thread starter is mongolian. jeez.

on topic- freckles fade. wear sunscreen moisturiser to stop getting new ones. use tinted moisturiser if you want to cover them up.
deal with them, they're not exactly considered to be hideously unattractive.

For a second I thought you said edible english.

Then I got the munchies real bad and I went off to get some cereal, then I came back and am going to post this message.

freckles are disgusting. especially when theyre all over a girls chest or on back. its really really disgusting to see so many blemish freckles all over. it looks disgusting. lindsay lohan wears a LOT of expensive make-up, hence her apparent removal of freckles. freckles are yuck

i've got heaps of freckles on my face (across my nose and cheeks) :( it's like from light brown to chocolate brown and it's unattractive. Just recently, my mother noticed how much it stands out on my face >.<

Thanks for some of the tips guys. There's some more here

why dont you try ultraceutical vitamin c serums ($75-$108)?

Vitamin c serums supposedly inhibits melanin production, hence "blending" your freckles and sunspot over time.
