Hi I have been using the hydroquine free Fair & White Soap, and it seemed to work for me.. but it didnt lighten my all of my body like I wanted, I am wondering which soap would be able to do that..and also if I stopped using the soap will the lighter skin still remain.. |

Are you allergic to hydroquinone?
If you are try using products with kojic & salicylic acids. If you do not use a sunblock especially one with titanium dioxide, you will redarken. Because you stopped using the soap your original skin colour will come back. You are not providing your skin with any inhibitors and it will naturally reproduce more melanin. |

I agree w/ Stately. I also think using a soap is not enough. You might need to use products that exfoliate and then apply skin lightening creams or lotions. There are several available in the market. I would suggest being extra-careful w/ hydroquinone - it caused my skin to hyperpigment, something I'm still struggling to remove |

I would have to second the sunscreen suggestion. Always wear sunscreen. You will be fighting a losing battle if you are trying to lighten your skin and not wearing sunscreen everyday. It does not matter if you are not planning on staying out in the sun for a long period of time. Just running to your car or to the office or whatever is enough to negate the effects of your whitening product for that day.
