Whitening products on the market don't actually whiten your skin, it's just an illusion that makes your skin look brighter. But you could make your natural complexion look brighter by everyday simple steps:
1) Wash your face daily.
2) Use a toner after washing to get rid of those dead cells and tighten the pores. I used to be a lazy bum and skipped steps two and three until I began to have problems with outbreaks (which I never had during adolescence) as I got older.
3) Moisturise. They have different types of moisturiser out there depending on your skin type - oily, combination, and dry. It also gives a nice glow to your complexion.
4) Scrub your face at least once a week. It helps your skin to get rid of the dead cells and reveal the new ones underneath it.
5) Use a good suncreen (some moisturisers come with sunscreen) when you go out, those UV rays cause skin to age faster especially the lips. Don't forget the lipbalm too!
6) Have your daily intake of fruits and vegetables. Seaweed and rice is really good for the skin too. Some expensive skincare products are derived from these things, but why spend the money when you could actually get the same benefits by eating it.
Eat healthy, stay healthy, and live healthy.
You are what you eat. :)

Diet really does not affect your complexion. Sorry folks, that's an old wive's tale. Just wash your face every day and use moisturizer with an SPF of 10 or greater. NEVER wear makeup without first putting on moisturizer.

If you drink a lot of water it will help. Eat food with vitamin B in it as well as Vitamins A and E. & Ignore that idiot above me

Drink TONS of water, no soda, and minimal booze. Stay out of the sun and use SPF 15 on your face every day.
