Why would you want to ruin your skin like that? Leave it alone your only going to mess it all up I am sure there is no problem with having darker skin some people pay hundreds a month to keep tan. You need to learn to love the skin your in!

Hi I am also a black woman who had this problem. I use Palmers   Cocoa butter after I shower and notice that the stretch marks seem to lighted up and smooth out.I only buy the solid kind not the creamy version because this has shea butter in it which will also help the dark stretch marks to lighten up. Futhermore, don't be stingy when applying if you do this consistently for about a month trust me you will notice a gradual change. Also you will notice that as the stretch marks get older the will naturally start to blend in with your skin. In conclusion, please remember that it is unhealthy to gain weight and lose it so frequently try to keep your weight balanced out. Good Luck!

I've heard that using a lemon helps lighten dark spots.  Cut a lemon in half and rub it on the areas (probably best for the thighs...not sure about your rear-end, depending on where it's dark).  Make sure to moisturize afterwards.  Or you can buy a skin lightening cream called Porcelina sold at most drugstrores and apply every day.  Just make sure you apply on the dark areas only, as it will also lighten surrounding skin.  I used it for a dark spot on my face and it worked well.  Good luck. :)

You could try some of the instant tanning creams. They are not as messy as makeup, and look more natural.

You will, my dear, have to learn to accept the skin you were born with...Staying out of the sun and religious use of sunscreen will help prevent darkening, but nothing can change your basic complexion... get a makeover in the cosmetic departments of your favorite stores to learn how to make the most of your natural beauty and then revel in it.

Mederma or Proactiv skin lightening solution. I am dealing with the same problem right now.

oh gal! u could use some home-made pastes. for example mix little cream, turmeric powder and saffron. apply it and leave for some time. then wash with warm water. then immediatly rub an ice cube over u'r face lightly. the next day take little honey an put in some lime juice, a little tomato too. lightly scrub it over u'r face. wash it over. u could do this alternately. it would improve the texture of u'r face and even remove u'r whiteheads. don't use makeup instead scrub a beetroot piece lightly to give that blush on ya cheeks. hope u don't get sad anymore.

If you mean clear from blemishes, drink at least 2litres water a day and avoid fatty, sugary foods. If you mean your skin is naturally dark, keep out of the sun. Even dark skins fade a few shades in time.Just eat right and moisturise and be happy with what you got.

I'm guessing that you're coloring is similar to you're avatar and if that is the case, I think you should go with browns/pale pinks in the eye shadows.  Bronzer in the cheek area a deeper pink close to the shade of your lips for lipstick with a slightly darker lip liner shade and then maybe just a little sparkle all over since it is your very special 18th birthday!!  Have a great time and a great birthday no matter what you go with!

Try Dermablend.  I hear it's a PHENOMENAL cover-up to even out pigment.
