I've noticed that my arms are darker compared to the rest of my body, which has been bothering me. I've tried using body lotions, homemade scrubs, and cucumber juice masks, but they only seem to work temporarily. I'm looking for something effective to help even out my skin tone. Plus, I have sensitive and slightly dry skin. Any advice on what could work for me?

To help even out your skin tone and address sensitivity and dryness, I recommend using a skin-lightening cream containing hydroquinone or kojic acid. You can try using "Meladerm" cream twice a day on the affected areas. Additionally, incorporating a moisturizer like "Cetaphil Moisturizing Cream" can help hydrate your skin and improve its overall texture. Remember to apply sunscreen daily to protect your skin from further darkening.
