Exfoliating with a soft-bristled toothbrush or sugar scrub will remove dead skin and brighten your lips. However, if your natural lip color is more brown than pink, you may need to add a tinted gloss or lipstick to achieve a pink color.

If you wear sunscreen daily, avoid prolonged sun exposure, and exfoliate a few times a week it will brighten your skin, but not dramatically. The only way to achieve significantly lighter skin is with bleaching.

The 2 most effective ways are to wear sunscreen regularly to prevent sun damage and to use a retinol or retinoid cream. Botox can also be a highly effective way to prevent aging.
