I noticed that not only did I grow hair where I didn't grow it before once I hit my late 20s, but I also started getting some skin discoloration. Right now, it looks like I have brown lip liner applied right outside my lips - pretty lame!

It looks like you're a pale person like me. Are you staying out of the sun and using SPF 30 all the time? You really need to do this as you get to 30 and beyond - not only do you get this charming discoloration, but you start getting big ol' age spots instead of cute lil' freckles.

The good news is that all my discolorations has been fading ever since I got strict with the sunscreen, including putting on high-SPF lip balm. I also wear a hat all summer.

While this seems sorta lame, my dermatologist is so happy with me. And hey, I'm not just looking better, I'm minimizing my risk of skin cancer!
