    These sound like great remedies, but I’m a little confused as to what “stains” are on the skin. Is this referring to scars maybe left behind from acne or pimples? I definitley have a few marks on my face, especially on my jaw line, where my acne was worst when I was a teen. I’ll try these remeides on them to see if they help!
