What are affective, safe ways to lighten skin?

My face is pale compared to my tan skin. No, I will not tan my face. I have tried fairness soap and exfoliating regularly, doing so did not help at all.. Any suggestions?


Please don't answer with "Ask Michael Jackson" or "Bleach it."

Wash your face with milk


Skim if you have oily skin.





Powdered milk also works well - add enough water to make a thick or thin paste and apply it all over your face and body about an hour before your bath or shower. %26gt;%26gt;%26gt; At Night.





Lemon juice will also fade darkened skin. Rub it all over before your bath or shower. Use diluted lemon juice on your face to prevent irritation. %26gt;%26gt;%26gt; At Night

Reply:good quality skin lighteners, a high spf sunscreen (at least 30), your favorite moisturizers and/or vitamin C work best together to achieve a successful skin lightening results.. safe skin lightening products should not have hydroquinone, mercury or steroids.. i've maintained my fair skin doing this. :-)
