    Dark Knuckles & Joints

    I just joined and I apologize if this is a common topic I could not find anything from my searches. I am very happy with my Mel2 and since I am very fair skin I do notice dark freckles beauty marks etc. I do have one issue I do not like. I have dark skin around knuckles and some seems to be at knees. Anyone have a similar experience or possible solution? The knuckles bother me the most since it almost looks bruised and hard to conceal.

    Never heard or experienced those sort of results, sorry brender
    One random issue that does come up with dark finger nails - under the cuticle can become discolored when ladies get their nails done & decide it's safe to dry under UV lamps when on MSH....
    Maybe others can share their .02

    Unfortunately, I too can report discoloration of joints. For me, however, it's only the knees. They are turning an almost purple color. I think it is only happening on my knees because I spend a lot of time at work kneeling so my knees are pretty rough. I'm starting to use some intense moisturizer on them now (Bag Balm)- will report if I earn anything.

    Good luck, please report back - I do typically apply SPF to my knees (had an operation/scar year ago) - further knees/elbows/feet are areas I consciously exfoliate & avoid tanning
