Which whitening product is good? My face is so dark after the sunburn. |

I don't think a 'whitening' product will get rid of a suntan. I would suggest using a sunblock when you're in the sun next time to prevent any tanning!!
You also made a post about tanning lotion vs. blocking lotion. Suntan lotion generally has a low spf (4- and is not designed for protection. Use at least spf 15 to get any sort of protection. |

Also, since your skin has been damaged by the sun, I would recommend a C serum or antioxidant serum like the one from Juice Beauty, or at the very least some aloe vera gel. |

Hi toey,
if you haven't already, you can start using brightening/whitening skincare line while your tan fades. i have used shiseido's uv white with some success (keep in mind that good whitening products are not bleaches so you have to give it some time) as well as DHC alpha arbutin series. Shiseido came out with a new brightening line callsed Lucent white--i haven't tried the moisturizer yet, but the foaming cleanser works well for me.
But yup, like the other ladies here advise, you should find a good vitamin C serum to layer on under your sunscreen and before moisturizing for additional protection from further tans. if you do all this and stay away from the sun, you should lighten up in no time  |
