I want to SAFELY lighten my skin tone, help?

Question

My whole body is a really nice caramel colour, but my neck and face is a lot darker, i want to lighten my neck and face to match the rest of my body, but i don't wanna ruin my skin, is there a safe way of doing this? Has anyone else here done it and got good or bad results?

Answer 1

if you are from a country, it's possible that by wearing t-shirts with a rounded neck you have just naturally tanned over your face and neck area. just sunbath the rest of your body and your skin should even out - if you get winters where you live, your skin will probably lighten to that nice caramel colour you really like. i'm saying this because it is probably the best NATURAL (and in comparison to treatments - cost effective) way you can do this. altho don't forget to use a highish factor sun lotion when bathing!  

Answer 2

Sounds rissssssky... wouldn't do it if i was you.

Answer 3

there are safe and effective skin lighteners for your purpose - papaya kojic acid soap, black licorice soap, dermaline skin whitening cream or lotion - and a high spf sunscreen.. these work well together to help you achieve the results that you want.

Answer 4

I work for an online retailer selling stuff like this.  Our best sellers are Civant Meladerm and Nur76 Skin Lightening.  This stuff seems to really work and is all natural.

However, if you dont wear a sunscreen, you will not get lighter!

see www.skinlight.co.uk

If you want to order, email me and i'll send you a code for a £2.00 off voucher.

BTW - Hydroquinone is illegal in UK and Europe.  They probably wont ship to you unless you live in US or Canada.

Answer 5

i use a cream that my aunt got me while she was on a business trip somewhere, called Fair and Lovely. I use it twice a day and it seems to work quite well. You're supposed to use it for 4 weeks to get Total Fairness.

Answer 6

Maybe your neck and face are darker cos they are tanned from the sun? Can you not make the rest of you a bit darker by sunbathing like the rest of us??

Answer 7

Well personally i use Swiss glutathione bar. It really works well as a skin lightening soap. I used to wash only my face with it, but now i use it for my whole body as well... Its really effective and ive notice the difference in less than a week. you should try it.
