Please be nice about this.. thank you.

It is always best to be on the safe side, and if it hasn't cleared up, go see the doctor, because you never know.

If it's on your skin (outer lips) it could just be freckles or moles. You might want to check with your doctor to make sure it's nothing though.

Hi there. When you say around your vagina, are you referring to the outer lips - when the public hair grows?
Or, are you referring to the soft deep pink tissue of the inner lips? The same colour as the lips of your mouth.
Whatever it is, just so long as there are no associated pain or itchy rashes, and no discharge from your vaginal opening that you consider to be abnormal, there might not be a problem at all.
Do they look like freckles that you might have on your nose or cheeks or arms?
I ask this, because you have said they have been there for as long as you can remember. Which seems to indicate they were there from birth. They might be just like a mark on your skin - tiny brown flat spots that aren't raised, nor are they dry and flakey, or crusty.
To know for sure though, the only thing you can do is to go and see your family doctor and let him or her examine you.
It will also put your mind to rest.
