How do I get rid of my freckles?

My face (and some parts of my body) has been COVERED with freakles ever since I was about 6 or 7. I am a model and so I wear a lot of makeup some times and my freckles show thourgh my foundation making my face look caked even when it's not. Hot do I get rid of all these freckles? I need something fast,easy , and efficient.

Nothing will get rid of them completely, but if you try to cover them with thick makeup it can make them look worse. It draws attention to that part of your. Try a colour correction product, a primer and a light reflecting foundation. Emphasis on your eyes or hair drawers attention away from your skin and use a high SPF all year.

There are many topical creams you can take to lighten the skin. It depends on your sensitivity what would be best. Overall, these ingredients are good for lightening the skin, either from age or damage: marshmallow (not the puffed sugar), licorice root(again, not the candy), white willow bark, and vitamin c. Use a sugar scrub (lemon and honey would be good in it) once a week to prep the skin.

The freckles you have are probably from sun damage and are most likely permanent and there are no fast immediate ways to get rid of them. Try using a dark spot lightening cream or serum, and a facial peel. You could also go to a dermatologist and get some laser treatments done which may help as well. Wear sunscreen to prevent future freckles or sunspots. You will most likely have freckles for the rest of your life and these treatments will probably just lighten the freckles and make them easier to cover. Hope this helps :).
