Of spots and chins


I am 39, of medium build and have a few black spots near my eyes. Is there a home remedy for this? I hardly go under the sun and would like to get rid of the spots. Also, the recent short haircut I had makes my face look “chinless”. I really envy those with V-shaped chins. What can I do? – No more chin

Audrey Ang, Estee Lauder senior education manager, says the black spots around the eye area are possibly freckles. These are tiny brown spots usually seen around the eyes and nose area, and on the body, and are more apparent on those with fair skin. If you have freckles and you weren’t born with them, it means they’re caused by sun damage.
