Hello,
Thank you for using healthcaremagic,

Here are some tips for a lighter skin complextion:

-Be sure to buy the correct face wash. Organic Papaya Soap whiten your skin.
-Look for products containing skin-lightening ingredients such as vitamin C , glycolic acid,kojic acid, alpha hydroxy acids or arbutin.
-Exfoliating once a week removes dead skin cells and lighten the skin
-Use retinoids. Retinoid creams can effectively lighten skin through exfoliating the skin and speeding up cell turnover.
-Use a turmeric mask.Mix turmeric and lime and apply it on face than wash it off
-Mix milk and lemon juice together so you will get milk cream .Milk cream lighten the skin in few months.Just use it as a mask 1-3 days per week
-Drink more water and follow a healthy diet.

Hope it helps,
Kind regards,
Dr.Mersi
