Naturally Cure Dark Elbows Problem
Skin is darker at the outer joint of the elbow because it gathers there and has a network of fine folds that trap dust and sweat, thereby affecting the colour of the skin. If your skin is unnaturally dark in the area, you can work your way around it. But do remember that it will normally be darker than the rest of your skin anyway.
You can exfoliate the skin there regularly. An excellent exfoliating scrub would be a recipe of yogurt with dried, powdered orange peels, a handful of powdered walnut shells and a few drops of lime juice and olive oil. Mix these ingredients so that you get a thick paste and use this to scrub your elbows. This scrub works for both dry and oily skin.
You can take a slice of orange and rub it into your elbow till it is completely crushed. The juice can be left there till it dries and then washed off. You can do the same thing with cucumber and half a lime as well. All these substances are naturally bleaching in nature and will lighten the colour of your elbows. Always go out in the sun with a sunscreen applied to your elbows. This will go a long way toward helping you to get rid of the darkness.
