I am not getting married until August 7th, 2010. Right now my biggest worry is my that area between the upper lip and my nose. I get freckles in the summer and a few years ago they have mutliplied in that area. It looks awful!! It looks like I have a dirt line there. Does anyone know anything I can do for this?
I have tried to apply sunscreen like every hour this year, it didn't help! My ass. manager at my store is going to do our hair and make-up and we have been playing around with make-up. Some of it looks good, untill a picture is taken and for some reason you can tell!!
Anyone have any advice?
TIA!!

Lemon juice lightens.  Concealer works wonders.

Photoshop on photos produced miracles!  If you are really that self-conscious about it, let your photographer know and he/she will make sure you never had a freckle that day.

hehe... yes, gotta love photoshop!! I just wish you could see how bad it gets! I'm a red head and fair skin, it doesn't take much at all to get the freckles out! To really cover it just looks awful because then you can tell I have on tons of make-up! I guess I'll try the lemon juice! I won't be out anything at this point!

You may hate your freckles, but I'm betting there are a lot of people out there who  probably think they're attractive...

Guests notice the goreous smile before they notice a few natural freckles!

I would also try some reputable skin care counters.  Try a Kiehl's counter, Bliss Spa line, etc.  They both should have a lightening masque that also helps.  Talk to one of their skin care experts and see what they suggest as well.

Don't get me wrong, I do like my freckles, just not the dirt looking line that develops above my lip!! It looks like a mustache!!
My mom tells me that she doesn't notice it, but my dad says he does!

You can try applying a concealer over it or choose shade of foundation that closely matches the color of your freckles.

You can order from this site and have it delivered to your house

Lemon juice does work!  I had a similar problem w/ redhead freckles across one side of my forehead.  Leave it on for a half hour to fourtyfive minutes for a few days and see how it works for you.  It does take a few days though!  Good luck!
