I have a bit of sun damage on my cheekbones and was wondering if bezoyle peroxide would lighten it.
Does benzoyle peroxide help to lighten skin?
I have BenzaClin and it has benzoyle peroxide in it. It totally ruined a couple of my favorite shirts cuz it has some kinda bleaching agent in it. It doesnt lighten skin I dont think, but it lightens hair.
Use a loofah or something to scrub away dead skin cells that are damaged.
Reply:no it just kills germs, but it will lighten your hair
Reply:No
Reply:no it wont help soory but what u can do is keep lotion on it and dont go in the sun alot n it will lighten up
Reply:NO dont use that u know i can help u with that sun damage what u shoud apply is pure rosewater before stepping outside in sun that would relieve well.
Reply:no, but it works pretty well for acne

What is causing a change in skin pigmentation around the eyes?
I have always had dark circles and puffiness under the eyes, but in the last few months patches of lightend skin has developed under and above the eyes in the same places on each side, above the eye, on the inner corner, under the brow, and below the eye also towards the inner corner. The lightened skin is on the same place under and above both eyes. I hope this not too confusing. If anybody has this or knows what might be causing this please let me know, Thankyou.
What is causing a change in skin pigmentation around the eyes?
I'm not a dermatologist... that's really who you should consult... but I can tell you that there is a condition called vitiligo that can cause light patches of skin on people of all colors (not just black people.) Other things that can cause skin pigmentation changes are lupus (REQUIRES medical attention - type Lupus in your search bar and all kinds of info will come up) and melasma (non-lethal, I have it, no big deal) but I think both of those usually create dark splotches on the face rather than light spots. Age %26amp; medications could have something to do with it too... if you can't afford to see a doctor, I would ask a pharmacist - they might recognize it right off and direct you to something over the counter. Good luck!

I know that it's supposed to keep skin from aging and keep skin smooth, as well as help with acne marks. Has anyone here been using it regularly? Does anyone know how long it takes before it really has a noticeable affect (such as fading of scars, less acne, lightened skin tone, etc)?

Skin bleach???
well my hands are a bit darker than my arms and so are my feet
is there any cream that you would recommend that helps tone or lightened skin?
-thanks =]
Skin bleach???
I wouldn't try to bleach your hands and feet. It would be better (and the products less expensive) if you used tanning products on your arms and legs. Make sure to apply it evenly. I also apply other lotion OVER the tanning lotion, the smooth out the edges because you can't always tell where you left off on the tanning lotion and you could end up with it being obvious that you used tanner.

I have pale skin and would like to find out if there are any ways to darken my skin permentaly????????????????
i have red hair and fair skin. i'm very white and have never tanned. are there any treatments out there such as laser that i could use to darken my whole body? i've seen many to lighten skin but, none to darken.
I have pale skin and would like to find out if there are any ways to darken my skin permentaly????????????????
Join the pale skin club. I understand everything that your going through. I cannot tan if my life depended on it. I don't know if there's anything out there to darken your skin, but what i use is sunless tanning during the summer to get rid of my pasty white skin. But other than that, i have no idea.
Reply:there are some roots from plants in angola who can color your skin very dark, you have to put them in a bath and stay in the water for more than 40 minutes......
unfortunately I dont know the name of that root now, I have to check my diary...

Tell your friend she is beautiful just the way she is! And remind her that trying to look like Michael Jackson is not normal!
Reply:What is up with people not embracing their color? Your friends should stop using it and learn to love her color.
Reply:Skin lighteners are bad for you.
Although they do work within a few days, it could leave uneven pigments so basically white blotches.
But they're still bad for the health.
End of story.
Reply:I am not sure how long but why would she want to do that. I understand it's hard growing up in a world which looks up to blonde hair and blue eyes (especially black culture where we prize black girls who are light). I don't wanna sound cheesy but she should be proud of her heritage and her skin.
Tell your friend that instead of using that money on skin lighteners use it on a therapist because she obviously has some serious self-confidence issues.
She should stop trying to fit in when she was born to stand out.

Lemon and milk for skin discoloration?
I've heard that applying lemon juice to skin discoloration will lighten these dark spots.
however, should i not go out in the sun after doing so? ive also heard that this only causes more discoloration. If i do happen to go out into the sun, will applying sunscreen over the treated area slow the effects? and should i leave the juice on my skin or wash it off after ten minutes?
milk is commonly used to lighten skin. Will this also treat dark spots?

Find out how lemon can be put to work for you--to give bounce to and shine to hair, lighten age spots or discoloration, smooth your feet, and make your skin look fresher and younger. Here’s how.
Lemon is rich in fruit acids that will gently remove dead skin cells and bleach darkened or discolored areas. We recommend you only use fresh-squeezed juice, not the bottled stuff, which contains anti-oxidizing chemicals that are harmful to the skin.
Discontinue using any of these formulas if you experience discomfort or sensitivity.
Here are our lovely, lively lemon beauty tips:
1. To lighten discolored elbows: cut a lemon in half and place one elbow in each half for approximately ten minutes. Lemon’s acids will gently break down the dark patches of skin so they may be washed away.
2. To exfoliate dead skin and diminish the appearance of freckles and age spots, gently rub a cut lemon and 1/2 teaspoon sugar granules over the skin for a few minutes. Repeat at least once a week until the darkened areas fade.
3. Another way to lighten age spots: simply sit with a slice of lemon applied directly to the area for ten minutes. Repeat once a week until spots fade.
4. Lemon hair conditioner: Mix the juice of one lemon with one cup warm water and apply to hair. Allow to remain for a few minutes, then rinse. This will add fresh bounce and shine.
5. Dandruff treatment: Mix a few tablespoons of fresh lemon with warm olive oil and rub gently into scalp. Allow to remain for 15 minutes, then shampoo and rinse as usual.
6. For smooth, pretty feet: In a foot bath, combine 1 cup of lemon juice, 2 tablespoons olive oil, 1/4 cup milk and enough water to fill the basin. (You may also add a few drops of your favorite essential oil for fragrance, if you like.) Soak feet for 15 minutes, then rinse with warm water. Do this once a week for several weeks for noticeably softer, smoother feet.
7. Astringent toner for oily skin: Combine the following--2 tablespoons lemon juice, 2 tablespoons vodka, 1 tablespoon distilled water, 1 teaspoon witch hazel. Apply with clean cloth or cotton balls to skin, then rinse. Caution: do not apply to broken skin, as it will sting! This formula will keep in the refrigerator for a week.
8. Lemon Juice Astringent Simple
Simple squeeze some lemon juice into a glass jar, and dab some onto your face every morning, let it set for 10 minutes, then wash it off with warm water followed by a moisturizer. Fresh lemon juice will last for 4-5 days.
however, should i not go out in the sun after doing so? ive also heard that this only causes more discoloration. If i do happen to go out into the sun, will applying sunscreen over the treated area slow the effects? and should i leave the juice on my skin or wash it off after ten minutes?

Skin Discolorations in Ethnic Skin?
I am a minority and my knees and elbows are darker than the rest of my body. Also, I take birth control pills for a health problem I have and I have begun developing melasma on the cheeks (a darkening of the skin on the side of the face due to hormones). All you other people of color out there, what do you use to lighten skin discolorations such as these? How long did it take to fade? Thanks for your time.
Skin Discolorations in Ethnic Skin?
Use 100% cocoa butter and make sure you are very consistent when using this. You should see results if you are a consistent user! Also, I know they have ligtening/bleaching creams. I'm not sure how safe and accurate these products are, but you may want to talk with your dermatologist or take the time to research these products and see if anything fits your needs. Hope this helped!
Reply:I use a combinations of Ambi and Shea butter. I have been using Ambi since i was 15 and i am now 33.
Reply:I am a makeup artist and deal with this on a regular. There is actual skin lightening sticks that look like lip stick. People sale them in most beauty supply stores that cater to the ethnic community. IE: any place that sales weave or hair pieces. I used to manage a beauty supply store that sold tons of the stuff, and people would always come back for it. it actually has a sort of bleach in the ingredients that is safe for skin.
Reply:try diana stalder products the papaya kojic soap, whitening cream and lotion and for only $26.99 for the set of 3. You can never get cheaper than this website. You can check out customers testimonials and you will able to know which skin care you prefer to use. Compare prices before buying.

Eating and sleeping problems related to pale skin?
A friend of mine has been recently appearing paler and paler. Not pretty pale but a sickly pallid color when she once had a golden glow. She claims that her sleeping problems (insomnia/sleep defeciency??) are the cause of her unusual coloring, but I suspect she has an eating disorder as well (anorexia?). I was wondering which would be the more likely cause of her skin's lightening. Thanks.
Eating and sleeping problems related to pale skin?
vegetarian, eh? try anemia -- lack of iron.
lack of protien can do that too.
does she eat spinnach or take iron pills? no? that's it. does she eat lots of cheeze and beans? no? that's it.
being unhealthy can interfeer with all aspects of ur life, i imaine it can make your sleep worse too.
lots of healthy vegetarians out there, but a lot of them are too thin and fragile (get sick a lot), and all vegans look sick and pale to me.

I've tried some toners before, and they all dried my skin up like a chip, leaving awful scars and dark spots on my face. Anyone have any suggestions (other than makeup or surgical procedure, and tanning, which makes it worse) on what toner to use for extremely sensitive skin, or which product can lighten skin/spots?
Skin toner?
your skin is sensitive because you've been using synthetic toners. probbaly the best toner for you right now is just plain old chamomile tea (chamomile is so good for senstitive skin, and yes, teas make the best toners) soak the tea bag for 15 minutes, squeeze the remainder out and dab gently all over your face. get rid of any commercial products you have because all they do is cause more skin problems. and invest in good natural/organic porducts (upurea.com mountainroseherbs.com drhaushka.com gratefulbody.com)
Reply:Look for a toner with absolutely no alcohol in it. L'Oreal has one in a pink bottle that has a skin hydrater in it as well.
I don't know what you're using for a moisturizer, but make sure it's nice a thick [not one for your body, has to be specifically for your face] and it coats your skin thourougly.
You can use a product with hydroquinone in it to lighten spots on your face, or you can gradually fade them with a retinol product.
You can also look into low percentage chemical peels and microdermabrasion. These methods are more expensive, but you'll see results right away, and they will last longer.

Almond oil lighetening skin?
ive heard it lightens skin, but any at home remedies, that will lighten skin. i have a dark caramel complexion. i wanna make it light brown or caramel. Any remedies?or does almond oil lighten skin?
Almond oil lighetening skin?
i haven't heard of almond oil being able to lighten skin.. what i recommend for the face is a mild skin lightening soap.. my personal favorite is the black licorice soap.. remember, not all black soaps are the same.. some don't deliver results, but some are potent and effective. :-)

How to make my skin more yellow ?
my skin colour is very odd. In some light my skin tone looks yellow, in other times it looks redish brown. In bright light my skin looks quite fair- light weatish, but other times its looks different shades of yellow-brown-red. when there is no light my skin looks dark, but very clear.
I have used fairness creams in the past and have also used home remedies to lighten skin. Currently i am using besan flour, tumeric and mixed with milk. Does this facepack lighten the skin ?

Reply:Maybe you should be using a make up to even out skin tone. Try bare minerals, it works great. You're skin is going to look different in all different types of light. You should apply make up in unfiltered natural light. That way you know what you truly look like.

Does rubbing lemon on your skin help lighten your skin from a tan?
i orginally had white skin and after i came from the beach i got really dark! I have waited for 3 years for this thing and its not coming off! I heard of the lemon thing...does it work?
Does rubbing lemon on your skin help lighten your skin from a tan?
The bleaching effect from lemon juice is limited and may only serve to dry out your skin. You may want to consult a Dermatologist about this. There may be more here than meets the eye.
Reply:No, it doesn't work. The nurse is right. The acid in the lemon will only dry out your skin. Tanning is bad for you, you know that. The tan will fade over the winter, but every time you tan, your skin suffers damage. It will never go back to what it was.
Reply:Sorry but rubbing lemon or your skin wont really help to reduce the browning but it will help to tone your skin, you may want to see a medical physician about your problem; you may also want to use lighting cream, and try to avoid the sun for a while, tanning really isn't good for you and though everyone wants to be brown its not healthy unless your born with that natural skin color or tone.
Reply:I've never heard of the lemon thing myself. I know people put lemon juice in their hair to naturally lighten it but I never heard that it works on skin. But go to any beauty mart or even walmart and they sell loads of creams that lighten your skin. Just make sure if you use bleach cream to use a SPF 15 or higher sunblock because the bleach cream makes your skin more sun sensitive.
If you want to try something more natural try pure aloe vera. It doesn't lighten your skin as much help to exfoliate your skin and shed the dark upper layers and reveal the lighter skin underneath.

Will the dark skin ever lighten again?
well i work alot in the sun and i always wear a short sleeve shirt leaving an obvious separation of skin tones..when i take off my shirt my torso is way whiter than my neck/face..will that ever go back to normal(like the torso)
Will the dark skin ever lighten again?
Yes you can be lighter again by using the skin whitening set of 3 (kojic acid soap or black whitening soap and whitening cream and whitening lotion) from Diana stalder and she got very effective product and for only $26.99 very cheap and most seller sell this for something $34.99. But you keep away from the sun and always wear the sunblock lotion at all times and drink plenty of water and vitamic c capsule. You will be okay and you can read customers best testimonials , you will be amaze...

Reply:From my experience it does. Every one is different though.
Reply:I think it does too. The thing is, those tans (like the ones from wearing a swimsuit or a sleeveless in the sun) just seem to take a REALLY LONG time to go back to their original color.
You could ask your dermatologist if there's anything you could apply there to maybe even the skin tone. Your skin almost always lightens after summer, but those swimsuit tans take forever to wear off, so try creams or herbal remedies.
Reply:yea if u stay out of the sun for a while it should...
Reply:not sure
Reply:Do try apply sunscreen on your exposed body parts at least 30 minutes before you go out in the sun. This is to prevent further darkening of the skin due to the sun.
At least once a week, do a body scrub to remove the dead skin and apply whitening and moisturing lotion on your body.
You should be able to see results in no time.

Pregnant women and skin bleaching cream?
Hello,
I usually use Obagi #3 Clear (skin corrector cream) w/ hydroquinone, but I recently found out that I am pregnant and I stopped using the cream because I was afraid that hydroquinone might have a negative effect. Does anybody know if hydroquinone is not recommended for pregnant women? Can anybody recommend a skin bleaching/lightening cream (for hyperpigmentation) that is safe to use on pregnant women? Are kojic and glycolic acid safe? Can somebody please let me know what is safe and good to use while pregnant? Can you please give me a specific product name because I really want to purchase one? Thank you so much in advance for your help!!
Pregnant women and skin bleaching cream?
I also use Obagi and have worked in the field for many years. The answer is no, you cannot use any of the steps except for #1 (the cleanser), #2 (the toner), and #6 (SPF). A natural skin lightener that you can use while pregnant is phyto (Skinceuticals makes one). It is always smart to ask your OB as well, but that is what we recommended for our patients at a couple different Plastic surgeons offices. Hope this helps!
Reply:Why do you want to bleach your skin?
Reply:As far as I know, skin bleaching creams are good for you in the first place. So I would think it would also be a bad idea while pregnant.
Reply:This is something that you need to speak to your doctor about. I used a skin bleaching cream once while pregnant, that I had used before with no problem, but while pregnant it gave me a horrible rash.
Reply:Hydroquinone's really bad for your skin you shouldn't be using it any way if you really must use a skin bleaching / whitening whatever you wanna call it you should look for one without hydroquinone and with as many natural products as possible. That way it'l be better for you and your baby if you still wanna carry on using it while your pregnant. This is one that doesn't have any hydroquinone :
http://www.radiantglow.co.uk/home.htm
Reply:Check the package....if it could cause any sort of harm to a pregnant women, there HAS to have a written warning. Also, you could call your doctor and double check. Oh and search around online for a list of safe and unsafe products. I know rule of thumb is that any chemicals soaked into the skin can cause as much harm as a medication ingested, so I would double check with your doctor. Good Job being careful!

When I was a child my skin was chemically lightened. Is there anyway I can make my skin darker again? Thanks?
My skin was chemicaaly lightened drastically using Hydroquinone it affected both my hair and skin. I have naturally Black hair. I know you can purchase tablets to keep you hair black (If anyone knows, please tell me where I can purchase them.) But with regard to my skin colour I dont know how to make myself darker again are there particular foods, Vitamens, Tablets i can take? Amy info greatly appreciated.
When I was a child my skin was chemically lightened. Is there anyway I can make my skin darker again? Thanks?
There are certain things about your situation you didn't mention, like what is the natural ethnicity of your skin colour. Its cold hearted to suggest asking Michael Jackson, who has never darkened his skin and remains a mystery how it was lightened in the first place (he claims to have vitiligo which looks much different than what he is suggesting). You are obviously troubled by this. Tanning, if your skin has the ability now, is unsafe as there is risk of skin cancer developing. See a hair dresser about hair colour and see a doctor about your skin condition. I wouldn't take a pill that claims to alter hair colour. Hydroquinone is not available in some countries due to cancer risk factors.
Reply:You can tan... Other than that I don't know. I'm curious as to why you had your skin lightened. I wish you'd explain why. I do know that if you eat lots of carrots, you'll get orange... I don't know if that's the color you're looking for, but everybody in Hollywood seems to love it!
Reply:Michael Jackson....is that you? Go play with your monkey and leave little boys alone!

Reply:I've never heard of tablets that can keep your hair black. I'd love to know about it. But there is a shampoo called "Tulsi %26amp; Amla" made by the Nyle company that is supposed to blacken your hair, and it works very well.

It is absolutley IMPOSSIBLE to do this. You are risking your health if you so much as try. You could damage your liver such that you need a transplant.

use good quality (and safe - no hydroquinone, mercury or steroids) skin lighteners to remove unwanted tan, and a high spf sunscreen to prevent further darkening.. a daily dose of at least 500mg vitamin c can reinforce the effect..
after you achieved the desired results, continue the regimen but on maintenance basis only.
there is only one treatment for permanent white skin, and it's benoquin.. it is ONLY used for cases of vitiligo to remove the remaining darkened patches on skin and even out the color.. therefore it is not an option.

Why not wait until you are at least 50yrs and starting to dry up, before adding any extra ingredients to your mix. Boy, I also wish Michael Jackson was here to give you his advice.

I personally think drk is beautiful and I know alot of men both Hispanic,African and Euro decent would love you no matter and some find that sexy. However, I am too a women of color( Dominican-Jamaican) and have the SAME exact problem you are having. My rear, under breasts, private areas are very dark.

Reply:why? I'm sure your a BEAUTIFUL woman ask a doctor maybe?
Reply:Gurl.... are you crazy? Are you planning on putting your rear-end on public view? Are you not yourself and wish your body was "just like Janes?" You really need to seek some advice from a therapist, as what you are needing is not atypical for someone as young as yourself. Why not wait until you are at least 50yrs and starting to dry up, before adding any extra ingredients to your mix. Boy, I also wish Michael Jackson was here to give you his advice.

How come society doesn't scorn people who darken their skin but it certainly scorns those who lighten it?
Go to any beach in the summer and you can see hordes of white people literally baking themselves in the sun trying to look like Beyonce Knowles, Eva Longoria, Iman or Shemar Moore, but yet if a black person wants to lighten their skin, it's as if the Wrath of Kahn broke loose...
Ironically white people are the ethnicity that should shun the sun as much as possible. Their skin isn't designed to withstand the sun's rays like people with dark complexions.
How come society doesn't scorn people who darken their skin but it certainly scorns those who lighten it?
You're referring to white Western society, right? I think if Blacks lightened their skin, Whites would not be able to identify them as quickly, and thus be unafraid. Sunbathing poses major risks and I tend to think that sun worshipprs are living in the past when life was supposedly simpler and the average Jane and Joe knew nothing about skin cancer.
Reply:Not many people wanna lighten their skin lol...
Reply:What happens if I am nearing forty and use suntan lotion to prevent crow's feet.
Reply:Huh gee I dont know maybe, .............Because darkening your skin is natural... it can happen naturally wether you try or not, just go out in the sun. On the other hand black people who want to look white and lighten their skin is very UNNATURAL and takes surgery or whatever. I cant believe that thought never crossed your mind...

Why would people want to lighten their skin?
i always hear questions here like "how do i lighten my skin" etc...
what are some reasons why people would want to do that? medical, physical...?
(i mean, it contradicts what more and more teens/adults are doing now- tanning as much as they can whichever way they can!!! lol)
i was just wondering.

But for white poeple, and asian, i think they look better pale, but it depends on personal taste I guess.

How do you lighten your knees and elbows, and even out your skin tone?

How do you lighten your knees and elbows, and even out your skin tone?
uneven skin tone can be corrected by the use of good skin lightening products that are safe (no hydroquinone, mercury or steroids) AND potent to show you results within a short period of time.. i've used a lot of skin lighteners before and here's a good source for safe and potent products..

you could try the skin cream for your darkened elbows and knees, and the black licorice lightening soap to correct pigmentations and brighten up your skin.. that's what i do and i love the results..
Reply:If you really want to lighten your skin, it will take at least 3 weeks to see results from any reputable product.
The best is DDF Fade gel, it contains 4 lighteners. However, it's not cheap ($52). You will definitely see results though.
As for your face, to even out the tone and help clear up mild acne, use a cleanser that contains AHA. Peter Thomas Roth has a great AHA Cleanser.

Does suncreen spf 50 lighten your skin?
the only thing im wearing is spf50 sunscreen and people keep saying im getting lighter, does sunscreen lighten your skin
Does suncreen spf 50 lighten your skin?
The higher the spf the more sun protection you get. You are using spf 50 which is one of the highest spfs on the market.
You are most likely getting lighter because you are not soaking in enough of the suns rays.
Try switching to a lower spf, but be sure to use a lotion with at least spf 15. Any lower and you risk getting cancer.
Reply:sunscreen don't lighten skin they protect u from sun rays and keep your skin from becoming darker.
Reply:No. Sunscreen does not lighten your skin. We are all exposed to some UV Rays regularly...Unless you never leave your home.
That said, since you have been using spf 50, you are blocking even the minimal amount of tan you are acustomed to,and, thereby getting lighter. Try a lower sp factor and see what happens. You will still be prtecting your skin from the harmful UV Rays and probably have a skin tone closer to what you're accustomed too.
Reply:No, it doesn't.

Reply:If you just don't like your tan, just start using high spf (like a 50) EVERY DAY, avoid the sun, wear hats, etc. I live in Louisiana, and if I don't wear Ocean Potion spf50 from March through October, I get all freckly, and I get a weird paper-bag tan on my neck. I'm a redhead, so I'm sun-sensitive. If you have hyperpigmentation (brown patches) it's equally important to protect your skin, but that's when you need to use the bleaching cream. Those aren't for fading tans.

I always get darker, but by the time fall and winter roll around, I always go back to my normal complextion. So there's no need for bleaching your skin. Just give it time, it'll come back.
Reply:try to stay away from the sun and anyway your skin will naturally restore itself to the color it was before but if you go to some stores there are some creams that are made just for making your skin a lighter color.

Reply:over time...ur skin usually gets rid of the tan....u can try bleaching it....
Reply:you can etha---- stay outta the sun or do what micheal jackson did
Reply:If you just don't like your tan, just start using high spf (like a 50) EVERY DAY, avoid the sun, wear hats, etc. I live in Louisiana, and if I don't wear Ocean Potion spf50 from March through October, I get all freckly, and I get a weird paper-bag tan on my neck. I'm a redhead, so I'm sun-sensitive. If you have hyperpigmentation (brown patches) it's equally important to protect your skin, but that's when you need to use the bleaching cream. Those aren't for fading tans.
Reply:Try using papaya (papain) soap. It effectively whitens skin. Well that's what my white friends say. Obviously I don't use it. But it works for them!
Reply:l personally dont know of anything... Try asking Michael Jackson.. He seems to have THAT answer...LOL
Reply:Ok Girl. There are plenty of natural ways to treat your problem. never go in for chemical stuff. Oils help a lot. Try these oils. Dont try everything at a time.
Almond Oil: Excellent for all skin types to soften and smooth.
Apricot Kernel Oil: Good for delicate and mature skins. Extremely rich in vitamin A.
Avocado Oil: Good for treating dry or sunburned skin problems because of its high content of vitamins A and E..
Flaxseed Oil: High in vitamin E, and useful in promoting cell regeneration.
Reply:yep bleach they are right
Reply:drink water...and better....if its purified
Reply:Use a Good Sun Screen. SPF 50
Reply:Well for starters a tan is natural. and it's going to go away within a matter of time, trust me I know, I get a tan every summer wether I like it or not from being in the sun. I always get darker, but by the time fall and winter roll around, I always go back to my normal complextion. So there's no need for bleaching your skin. Just give it time, it'll come back.
Reply:try to stay away from the sun and anyway your skin will naturally restore itself to the color it was before but if you go to some stores there are some creams that are made just for making your skin a lighter color.
Reply:well stay indoors for a couple weeks and then use the highest spf sun screen to maintain the color
Reply:with clay mask it's work.
Reply:ask micheal jackson

Can cocoa butter really lighten your skin?
I have heard it before, but was never actually sure. Does cocoa butter really lighten your skin tone?
Can cocoa butter really lighten your skin?
I think that you might be right. I have just recently started to tan in an indoor tanning bed, and after each session I apply cocoa butter to prevent dryness or any burns that might appear. I have noticed that I look very tan before I apply it and then the tan fades quite dramatically afterwards. So much for trying to get a tan:) The benefits I do get from using it are worth the possible lightening effects.

How did Lil Kim lighten her skin color?
I am doing a research paper about cultures that practice skin bleaching. I want to tie in some examples from the U.S. and I am using micheal jackson and Lil Kim. The problem is that I cannot find any specific information about how exactly lil kim lightened her skin. I need to know what she used or what she did and possibly what kind of doctor performed it. I need to know was it a cream, pills or whatever she did to make her skin color lighter. I need good accurate sources for this paper, something that has real proof and not simply an opinion. If anyone actually knows this info, please let me know how it is done. Once again, this is for my college research paper and it is a topic my professor and I have discussed. any help would be greatly appreciated.
How did Lil Kim lighten her skin color?
Lil Kim hasnt actually lightnened her skin at all... if you look at her 1996 photos from when she first came out, she was very light skinned much like today.... what you're thinking about is the lil kim of around 1999-2003 when she wore her platinum colored wigs and looked alot darker... this was because at the time she was doing alot of performances outdoors and she, like most african americans, gets darker during the summer. Kim's complexion is the same now as it has always been... lightning is one factor that you have to consider. The strength of the light in the studio will make her look lighter than she actually is as well as makeup. For example, on the cover of her album "the naked truth" lil kim is very light, almose pale, yet on her vh1 performance this past October, she wasnt quite as light.
So for your research paper, I'd suggest citing the photagraphers light strength to coincide with the era of pop culture...
examples
Oprah Winfrey... looks alot lighter now than she did back in the 1990s
Missy Elliott... also looks ALOT lighter than back in the day as well ...
Tyra Banks... another example
all of these ladies havent had their skin lightened.. they just all have better lighting ..
**Observation: in 1997 Lil kim was doing alot of summer press for her 1st album which was when the Not tonite remix (Ladies Night) song came out... Missy, Angie Martinez, and Lil Kim all appeared to be alot darker that summer... but it could just be because they performed that song so many times in the outdoors under all that sunshine.
Reply:Hyperpigmentation can be reversed. What kind of "better lighting" does Michael Jackson use? I sell a wonderful beauty cream that lightens elbows, knees, toes and hands with those unsightly dark patches of skin. Report It
Reply:She jumped into a bottle of bleach at Michale Jacksons house
