I don't know anything about papaya soap for skin lightening. Personally, I use sunscreen almost every day to protect my skin tone. If somebody told you a month and others say it takes many months for it to be effective, well that's because every person (skin and all) is different. So it may be a few months before you notice it working. Meanwhile, you can also try sunscreen or bathing with skin complexion beauty bars.

Natural (even organic) skin lotions or treatments may take yonks to work before you actually see any difference to your skin. So that doesn't mean the papaya soap you use isn't working (it may just working very slowly)!
Papaya has enzymes that help to exfoliate skin, but other than that it DOESN'T really help to lighten skin.
Did you take a look at the "ingredients" of the soap? Does it contain licorice? Interestingly SK 2's "PETERA" whatever actually IS a form of licorice, and it's this licorice that helps "lighten" and brighten skin.
Take a look at this site: http://www.godivaskincare.com/shopping/customer/pages.php?pageid=8
or do your research on skin whitening.
P.S. Again, I am not the site owner of Godivaskincare and I DO NOT profit from making suggestions of places of where you can get your skin-whitening wonder.
Just remember that even using an effective whitening product takes patience before you see any results! :)

it probably does not actually lighten the skin, but with repetitive use it probably leaves a thin film coating on the skin and therefore appears as though your skin is lighter. I say your own color is most likely beautiful already so stop wasting your money .
