Dark elbows and knees can be a little annoying and even embarrassing especially when your outfit doesn’t cover them up.

However, if like me you desire a really flawless skin and get rid of dark elbows, knuckles and knees without having to the “scrub thing,” here are 4 incredible homemade remedies to help you.
