Hello Mr.AAAA,

Do not use such medicine on self advice. Skin lite has steroid, Retinoid and Hydroquinone..these medicine required monitoring by dermatologist and they are harmful if continue to be used long duration that too without sunscreen..What I would suggest..stop it or try to use alternate day in night time followed by Good sunscreen in morning and noon, gradually shift to Skinlite ever instead of skinlite....do not sunexpose..will be all right.
