Hi, I'm wondering how often I should buy skin lightening products cause I've barely gone out for like 6 years now but only my body, legs, and feet are lighter, my face and arms are darker. I usually stay at home and work on the computer and only go outside to meet some friends or get groceries maybe once or twice a week. Do skin lightening products last forever after one use or do I continuously have to buy it cause the skin lightening products here are expensive and I can't afford to buy them like every week.

You have to keep purchasing them unfortunately. Once you reach your goal, u need to maintain it. Once a night or a few tmes a week.

Use SunBLOCK, also, not SunSCREEN.

F & F is one option, but you may also find it useful to read through ondine's thread for another option.

And I know a picture does not always show all, but your complexion does not look dull and uneven. Good luck

Thnk u I'll look it up how long do u think it will take me to reach my goal?

A lot depends upon how your skin adapts to the agents you choose, how consistent you are with your routine, how well you avoid the sun & how steadily you gently exfoliate. Lightening Fitz VI skin is the most challenging kind to change. It is much thicker than lighter shades of skin, tends to have a very thick stratum corneum & also tends to have a lot of accumulated sun damage since few dark people wore sunblock when they were growing up. No one knew that dark skin needed it too!

Initially, removing dead surface cells will be paramount. This will take some time but it will later enable your treatment creams of choice to penetrate better. You'll also better see which areas are uneven. Dark elbows, knuckles or knees must be blended into the surrounding skin before overall lightening can begin or you'll wind up very uneven.

Thank you ondine you are lifesaver all questions I have asked you have answered with detail and all I can say is you are just a vessel of skin knowledge and many of us our your pupils lol

Would it be achievable to go from kelly rowland skin tone to nicki minaj ?

to this ?

 

[PinotNoir]

Possible, I think, but not realistic.

 

[Mariee97]

Yes that's very much possible trust I saw it done!!!

 

[cherries]

Possible but you need the following patience, commitment and how to maintain that tone forever if that is your goal. Yes heads will turn when you get to NikiMinaj, jaws will drop if something happens that sets you back to original tone so keep that in mind.
