Frugal Snob: Yes to Grapefruit Spot Correcting Body Cream
Sharon Feiereisen
There are countless face creams that fight dark spots, but I rarely see any body creams that fight them. I love all Yes to products; I’ve tried dozens of them and have yet to come across one that isn’t effective, so I was intrigued by Yes to Grapefruit spot correcting body cream (on drugstore.com for $9.99). While fighting dark spots isn’t easy (I have a few which my dermatologist has said are “age spots” – apparently I am one of the unlucky ones who start getting them in their 20s…), there are ingredients that have been shown to lighten them, including grapefruit extract. This body cream is over 95% natural, is full of natural antioxidants to help ward off free radicals and minimize skin discoloration, and smells amazing – at least if you love grapefruit. I can’t say for sure that this moisturizer has lightened my dark spots, but at $9.99 it’s a super affordable option that keeps my skin hydrated and smelling great all day. Plus, it has a nice texture. Again, I’ve been using this for a few weeks, and it’s very hard to tell if there is any change in my dark spots but I figure if it helps with those…lucky bonus on top of hydrating my skin given the low price. Have you found an effective way to fight dark spots on your body?
