Our hands have a way of giving away our real age.  No matter how many nips and tucks your face has had, the hands always tell the truth. And yes, there is a difference between freckles and brown sun spots.  Freckles we’ll have to accept as cute and live with them. Sun spots we can help, so let’s get rid of the latter.  

Try mixing 1 Tbsp. of sugar and the juice of one lemon.  Use a cotton ball to apply to the age spots on your hands, then rinse.  Lemons have a natural bleaching action and will, over time, fade sun spots. The sugar acts as an exfoliant, and if you get hungry, a quick cat lick to the back of your hand provides a yummy snack.

Keep your hands out of the sun by wearing sunscreen and gloves when working in the yard, and keep them well moisturized.
