Ointments: Your best bet is the thicker ointments/emollients that don't contain a lot of additives. It's often these additives that cause bleaching of the skin and loss of that beautiful coloring. Something even like Vaseline that is thick and can trap in the natural skin moisture. Limit bathing and really try to stay away from topical steroids as they can really depigment your skin. Use sunscreen liberally
