remedy for dark ankles

My ankles have been dark ever since I remember. I mix salt and manicure shampoo in warm water and soak my feet for 10-15 minutes and scrub them with pumice stone. If I do it regularly the skin tends to lighten. But I want to get rid of the darkness completely. Can anyone suggest some home remedies? I did pedicure in beauty parlor but did not really notice any change.

Better try these one. All these home remedies works better. And safer one to go for without spending money.

• Honey+ lemon+ curd. Even if you hate the smell, bear it for some time.
• Greengram powder + milk will lighten the dark patches.
• Apply milk powder with mosambic juice as a pack for your ankle.
• Also if you rub a lemon rind daily, it'll fade away.

Hi Sruthi,
apply castor oil daily either before going to bed or before you take bath. It works. I have similar prob. I apply castor oil. you will get your desired result in a few days.
