January 17th, 2005
Hi. Im of asian decent and have somewhat darker colored nipples than caucasian women. My skin is pretty fair, and I like them fine but have wondered .. I knoe this is a weird subject but does anyone have any idea how u go about lightening nipples? Ive heard of creams and skin bleaching and stuff.. But can u use regular skin lightening products on ur nipples? Are they like sensitive or what? If anyone has any idea id be very happy, thank you very much.

I'm sure a skin lightening moisturizer could help, possibly. I recently had my nipples pierced and can tell you they are extremely susceptable to irritants. Bleaching or using harsh chemicals in my opinion is not good. :)

To be honest, i'm not sure why you'd want to lighten the color of your nipples.. Most guys find it attractive for lighter skinned girls to have darker nipples.

In the end though, you have to do what makes you happy. And yes both skin lightening creams and bleaches will work to lighten your nipples. Bleaches are safe only as long as they are no cuts or anything of that nature involved.

There are also perminant makeup options that will work for this. May need to be reapplied in around 8-10 years. It's a surgical procedure.
