How do I lighten/whiten my skin?

Question

How do I lighten/whiten my skin? Could you please suggest products that I can use? Do those bleach tablets work? Creams?

NOTE: I don't need answers telling me to ask Michael Jackson OR lecture me about being comfortable/content with my own skin color.

Thank you very much and Happy New Year!

There are a lot of Japanese creams and lotions on the market meant to lighten skin, not sure if they work though - I used to rely on staying out of the sun, heavy duty sunscreen (50) even in winter and carrying a sun shade whenever necessary.. Some of these products are horrendously expensive - you will find that even a known brand like Shiseido has an own range of whitening products. Try ebay maybe or Google to see if they are available in your area.

the best way to lightening your skin is go to a dermatologist and keep in mind your face is your calling card in today's world. At something in the range of 100.00 to 500.00, even if your young you could get a job save up, within a short time you could pick a doctor you like I prefer a woman. And at one visit per month for 100.00 you could turn your problem into your best asset. It's a life long commitment, worth the time and effort. You'll never doubt your choice of color for make up or type, you'll know you're eating right, once you pay money you'll take all this seriously. I hate to see people order makeup off the home shopping networks to find that it's too greasy or too expensive to keep up. Money well spent will take you so much further than a band aide. If you need extensive work done, you can make out a payment plan. you're confidence will be 200 %

Are you trying to get rid of uneven splotches on your skin? If so, you need a lightening cream with some active ingredients such as Hydroquinone. it comes is strengths too. the higher the more potent. Use Caution! basically peels top layer of skin, must use sunscreen after wards. otherwise, don't bother.

Answer 6

Ive managed to get quite pale just by not going into the sun and when you shower if you have a loofah sponge scrub yourself it takes off the top layers of skin so that its lighter but if using that method then apply lotion right after you don't want to get red lol

Answer 7

You can try bathing with lemon juice everyday.Leave it for like 10mins before you rinse.Also,make sure you apply sunblock lotion SPF 20 or higher when you go out,not only to avoid getting darker skin but to avoid getting skin cancer esp if its really too hot outside.

Answer 8

glutathione works if you want to whiten your skin. i am using it and it has visible results... it is actually an anti-oxidant but then its nice to know that you have ure anti-oxidant and a product that would whiten your skin... i also had diamond peeling and it works for me... my doctor (dermatologist) told me that diamond peeling is still the best to improve dark spots, scars etc and with the help of glutathione it would be a 1,2 combo punch that would help improve your skin color... :)

Answer 9

Why would you WANT to lighten your skin? If you don't want your skin to get darker, don't tan and put on freakin sunscreen on sunny days.
