Hi, Thank you for posting you question.
Complextion and colour of skin are genetically determined and depends of the skin colour of the blood relatives.
Hence no external applicators could really bring about any significant change in your child's complexion.
Newborn children have a layer of hair on them when they are born, and when this layer is lost some changes in complexion could be appreciated. Also in the first year of life, the skin undergoes a lot of natural changes which are a part of maturation of skin, these may also lead to subtle changes in skin colour.
However, the final colour of skin is genetically predetermined and cannot be changed. Hence focus here should be on keeping the skin healthy.
