Dark skin on inner thighs
The skin on my inner thighs is dark and it sort of bothers me now that I am getting married in a year. I have an overall wheatish complexion but the inner thighs are darker (not completely black). I was obese earlier at 118 Kgs and now have reduced to 80 kgs. I scrub the skin with pumice stone everyday while bathing. I used to apply talcum powder after bath everyday but now I avoid it because I think it makes it darker. Is there a way this can be sorted out and returned to lighter skin shade?
