Well, for some reason, my chin and upper lip is noticeably darker than the rest of my face. I'm a girl, so it's kinda embarassing actually. In the right lighting it almost looks like I have a 5 o' clock shadow or something...any help??

Did you used to suck on your lip or chin... ? I knew a girl that once made a bad habit of this and hers looks dreadful... Perhaps cocoa butter and a facial cleanser with a scrub to help remove the dead skin slowly... if this is the case. I use swiss alps for removing dead skin cells anyway and for me it keeps pimples or acne far at bay.... I have an Oily T otherwise, normal.

You could be suffering from melasma - it's a darkening of the skin around the upper lip & chin. Visit your doctor to have it checked & get the proper treatment.
