Oh I almost forgot... Is safe to use LA lotion during pregnancy???

 

Your hormones will darken skin while pregnant. I would suggest riding it out until youre done breast feeding if youre doing that route and stick to a vitamin c supplement.

 

My skin got extremely dark when pregnant, darker than it ever was before! I wouldn't use HQ during pregnancy. I am planning to go beyond my skin lightening goal before the next time I get pregnant and hopefully I won't get so dark again. Maybe before you get pregnant or are trying, try to get even lighter.

I too am trying to figure something out for the next time, maybe a strong natural lightener mix b/c that super darkness can't happen again. 9 months of hormones and no lighteners - I am worried about completely reversing hard expensive work.

I am more worried about stretch marks than darkening, when using LA and KA it will tin your skin. Weight gain and thin skin is not good.

 

If you skin build it's probably not a big deal, I suppose it depends how stretchmark sensitive a person is. I didn't get stretchmarks until after the baby was born though I wasn't using products. I say it's not a big deal though because the stretchmarks I did get are fading really well after I started lightening after a few months. They might almost disappear altogether at this rate.
