Although there are some good recipes here to go whiter, if you want to be BEAUTIFUL you don´t need to be white. You just need to dress and make up in the colors that suit you. Do you think this is easy? Wear always light to medium colors. Black is the only dark color you can use, but use it few. Wear white, cannery yellow, turquoise, orange red, silver, bright pinks etc etc. Forget browns, darks and dead colors forever. Use bright lipstick and dark shades, yes, in eyes only.
Take care of your skin, if you do there will come a time when you will thank God she made you dark...trust me.

I am from Pakistan. I know from experience that lots of things help. Use sunscreen do avoid tan. Wash your face three times a day. Let your face be exposed to steam, and after taking a shower, cover your face in baby powder. I can't promise these things will make you completely white, but I garuntee, they will make you whiter.

Your skin color is beautiful just how God made it. Don't be ashamed of it. Celebrate it! So many people fry themselves in the sun or slather on fake tanning lotion to get darker skin.
Funny how people are, huh? White people want dark skin, dark skin people want white skin, curly-haired people want straight hair, people with straight hair want curly hair.
There are more important things in life to worry about.
I hope you can come to peace over your skin color.

Although it may not seem like your ideal answer, it's best to embrace the way you were made. Many people envy dark skin, and it makes you unique. Instead of trying to change the color, just improve the quality of your skin by keeping it well hydrated.

I have pale skin and I think darker skin is so much more beautiful, your skin colour sounds perfect, why would you want to change it? Embrace the dark side it's gorgeous and I'm jealous! Merry Christmas!

use a sunblock everyday
use fair and lovely it really works
for natural treatment apply lemon on your face for 15 20 min when you come home from the sun

I buy everything over the net because it is easier and more private. Use a search engine like the one here on Yahoo. I just put in Bleach Cream and bought the one I liked the sound of myself. and it's getting rid of my many sunspots already! People, use your search engines!!!

you shouldn't let the color of your skin bother you. my dad was from Italy and my mom was Irish but I got the dark olive skin from my dad and everyone can't belive how nice it is and my brother he got my mom's irish look. It's all in genes and you can't do anything about that.
