@pinkprincess Post your shade let me see..... Nadinola wlll take forever ,your goal may be possible with the right products though
it is preferable to lighten your face, then your body if they're close in shade. If your face is darker then you should exfoliate it first for a few weeks, maybe 4, since the face is more sensitive. Then approach your lightening creams from what you use on your face, then what you'll use on your body. Some people use different things, some don't. This is general though nc44 isn't that dark I think? I kind of forgot the shades lol

I am not sure how to post my shade but I’ll try my best so please bear with me (also I am trying to be as anonymous as I can be so I’ll probably show the bare minimum but I hope you can understand) 😅

This is my left cheek, in my room’s lighting (cool white light):

This is my right cheek, in my room’s natural lighting:

This is my right cheek again but outside lighting on a cloudy day, I am also wearing NC44 concealer here, however not sure why you can’t see it on the picture but NC44 it’s a lil warm/orange for me hence why I also use NC42: View attachment 68253


This is NC44 concealer on my chest in my room’s lighting, I tried to blend it as much as I could but it still looks this:

Please don’t mind my PIH from acne and my wrinkles, I am working on those too :(

Also I have a really bad permatan overall, from the age of 5-13 I would always spend 3 months in the middle east or south asia during the summer and my mum would let me run wild under the scorching sun without sunscreen cause she thought it was only for white people so at one point I was even NW47; I have come a long way since then cause I haven’t left the UK in a really long time so I kinda lost that tan but I was never able to go back to my original shade, the one I had before the age of 5.

I hope you can suggest me the right products to hopefully get to NC30.
You are a shade away from your goal in my opinion. You’re almost there. Maybe they have Veet kojic acid essential oil where you are? Veet for your body lightening.
I think that will work on you quickly, of course after exfoliating for a few weeks first & moisturizing a few times a week as well
Get yourself a good lightening soap and the nadinola for your face only
