6 Home Remedies for Dark Knuckles

You might want to look at the causes of dark knuckles before delving into the 6 home remedies for dark knuckles.

Now, let’s get started.

The Basic Steps

  • Dump the Terrible Feeling – Agreed. Your friends keep talking about your dark knuckles…which is making you sad by the day. Stop! You don’t need that. Remember, the more you feel this way, the more you’ll dent your confidence. All I want you to do is to be committed. And that’s all.
  • Apply Sunscreen – Natural sunscreen ingredients like zinc oxide and titanium dioxide can shield you from the harmful UVA and UVB rays of the sun, thereby preventing your skin from tanning…which might result in your knuckles, knees, and elbows getting dark.
  • Apply moisturizers – Moisturizer is as important as your sunscreen. Do ensure you apply your moisturizer diligently, not missing your elbows, knees, and knuckles.
