I am mixed women but my skin is for sure african type. Its oily and i have these dark scars
and i am looking for a home made type of thing that i can do to get them to go away.
i have tried chemicals and products and things just dont work out. I really dont watn to do laser stuff so can anyone help me?

well im not quite sure about homemade but you can buy pure coco butter. But since u have oily skin what i would honestly recommend is a chem peel, retin a micro, and/or african black soap called dudu osun or just plain ghanian/nigerian soap. you have to go to an african market to get it or you can order online. It works very well esp. for ppl with oily skin. (if you have really sensitive skin i would test it first)

Hi. I recommend Clinique's Even Better Skin Tone Corrector, which fades scars and hyperpigmenatation, and is suitable for all ethnicities.
For oily skin I recommend Estee Lauder's Sparkling Clean foaming cleanser. Its a bit expensive but is very concentrated so a bottle lasts a long time. I look out for it on ebay and discount beauty websites.
