Is there any way to get pale faster in ways of maybe a certain fruit that helps speed up this process? I know in this society it's best to get tan yet I'm Korean and I actually look prettier paler. During my PE summer sessions (no I didn't fail) I've gotten so tanned, it's almost disgusting >_<;;

Anyone got any ideas besides avoiding the sun? And does sunblock or sunblock lotion for the face really clog pores, causing more acne? Thanks ^-^

I dont know how to get pale fast. Just feel beautiful in your skin. As winter comes on, you will get lighter. You can also exfoliate daily with shower gloves or a loofah to get rid of dead skin, to reveal your new healthy skin. as far as sunblocks go, they makes ones just for your face. look for one that says hypoallergenic or non-comodogenic

There really is no way to get rid of an actual tan. You just need to stay out of the sun, and when you are in the sun use a sunblock of at least 35.If you wash your face at least twice a day. The sunblock should not clog your pores. Your tan should be gone in approx 2 to 4 weeks. Good luck.

while you were taking your PE summer sessions you should have put on sunblock. remember that there IS a difference between sunBLOCK and sunSCREEN. sunscreen is made to use prevent you from getting skin cancer, but sunblock is made for blocking the sun completely and bouncing the ray off you and onto somebody else. i am very light too, i know from personal experiance what you mean when you say that you are originally fair skinned and you get darker over the summer. i thought i looked werid too, so try Neutrogena Ultra Sheer, Dry-Touch Sunblock, SPF 55 which you can find at any local drug store. also, this sunblcok doesn't contain oil so it wont clog your pores and give you acne. using lotion on your face will help make it lighter

sunblock on the face is ok but do remember to remove them from ur face when you're home with a makeup remover.only if not remove will it clog your pores.so don't worry.fruits to avoid are those that contain beta carotene.papaya and carrot if eaten too often will make you have a orange tinge to your skin which is not what you want.however,there aren't any fruits to speed up the process.maybe you could try pearl powder,barleywater and bird's nest.some ppl swear by it to make them fairer.also,you may wish to carry an umbrella when outdoors on a sunny day.

Go for sunblocks/sunscreens that are labeled "noncomedogenic" -- meaning, won't clog pores. Of course, it doesn't mean that all with this label actually won't clog your pores but it's better you get the ones with this label than the ones without. If anything, I'd recommend Shiseido sunscreens. They're stable and people rave about Shiseido's SPF products (from make-up to actual SPF creams/lotions).

The best way is to avoid the sun and always wear long sleeves and pants. You can find lots of products in the market for skin whitening but to tell you the truth, none of them work. Why do you want to be lighter? Accept the way you are. Don't let the color of your skin determine your happiness in life.

Use whitening products. I am asian and proud to be fair. It is considered great beauty to have fair skin. I use Olay whitening mask and SKII whitening lotion.
Sunblock will not cause acne or clog pores.

i'm jealous, i wish i was tan . . .

obviously, avoid the sun . . . and no sunblock won't cause more acne, but i'd make sure to wash you face after you are done being the sun

maybe yo0u could pull a michel jackson.

yah i agree i like myself a little on the pale side too(though i'm not korean). you could soo if there is something you can take to reduce how much pigment you have.

and about the sun block you could avoid it and wear long-sleeve light clothing. i ware clothes that are a kind of mesh(i think thats the word) and it keeps the sun off.
