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'm noticing my skin is getting darker every day, and now there's this small white patch at the corner of my eye. I'm a college student, and I'm in the sun for around 3-4 hours daily, so I think that's why my skin's darkening. Plus, I've got dark circles around my eyes and dark patches near my mouth. My T-zone seems darker too. Can you tell me what's happening and what I should do about it?

I've had this lump next to my nipple for what feels like forever, and I'm not really sure how long it's been there. It's kinda weird because the lump seems to get taller when my nipple gets hard, and when it's soft, the lump flattens out. It's not painful, doesn't move around, and it's pretty soft. I'm a bit worried. Why is this happening? Is it something I should be concerned about?
