Its getting warmer on the east coast now. shorts are crawlin' out of my closet. Im getting tanner. my vit seems to get whiter. Dont get me wrong i LOVVE summer but the all of the sudden hit of my vit showing isnt my favorite. i have been using a spray concealer but its too dark for my skin tone so it looks just as noticeable with it than without it. i want to try a self tanner but my mom says it wont work because my depigmented skin wont absorb the color? is this true? does anybody have any inexpensive ideas to cover it up please tell your secrets :)
Thanks,
Heather :)

I too have been searching for something to coverup my vitiligo, which can be hidden in the winter but in the summer whenever I want to wear a bikini and shorts it can't... I haven't been able to find anything that makes it look better, however I am thinking about trying this product ...

...but it looks kind of pricey. You can send in a picture of your vitiligo and they try to match your color if you are unsure of what shade you are. I spoke to a woman on the phone who said they have a girl working for them that has vit and she uses it and it works well, but she could have just been saying that. Who knows!
I just use sun tan lotion when I am out in the summer to keep my skin from tanning and that helps with keeping the Vit. less noticable. But if you want to get dark in the summer then this wouldnt work.LOL :)
