Asked By:betty1010 in Seattle, WA

I am half Caucasian/half Asian and I have pretty fair skin but it does tan easily in the sun. I am in my early thirties and am noticing a green tone on my upper lip. I do shave my upper lip and have for years, but just recently the green tint became very noticeable! Help! How do I get rid of it?
