  • Skin whitening. What ingredients give the most visible results and when it becomes dangerous?

    Posted by ngarayeva001 on September 10, 2018 at 11:30 am

    I would like to start a topic that many members of the forum
    will find interesting. Skin whitening. I don’t use word “brightening”, because
    I would like to discuss the ingredients that give visible results. It is a
    multi-billion dollar industry all over the world and we all heard about
    dangerous practices such as using 20% of hydroquinone. Not touching the ethical
    side of this issue, I would like the professionals on the forum to give their
    opinion on the following:

    1)     
    What ingredients give the most visible results

    2)     
    Should there be any differences in whitening
    products for Caucasian skin and Ethnic skin (different ingredients maybe?)

    3)     
    When it becomes OTC?

    4)      At what point it becomes dangerous?

    Thank you all in advance!
