I've got this dark mark above my lips on my face, and I've tried a bunch of creams, but nothing seems to work. It's really noticeable, kind of looks like a mustache shadow or something. Could you recommend any cream that might help? And if there's something I can use daily that boosts fairness, that would be awesome.

I've got these white patches on my neck and shoulder again after 5 years. It's really puzzling why they've returned after such a long time. I've been using the same cream and dusting powder from before, Clotrimazole Powder and Fourderm, for about a month now, but theres just no sign of them getting better. Could you help me figure out what's going on, and what else I might try? Would appreciate any insights you have!
The recurrence of white patches on your neck and shoulder area after 5 years could be due to a fungal infection, such as pityriasis versicolor, which can be triggered by factors like hormonal changes, stress, or sun exposure; despite using Clotrimazole Powder and Fourderm cream, the lack of improvement suggests you may need to consult a dermatologist for a revised diagnosis and treatment plan, which may include alternative antifungal medications, lifestyle changes, or other therapies to address the underlying cause.
