Pale Skin

That`s interesting about the whitening products. I`m glad I read this first as I was seriously considering something like that for a tiny area of pigmentation I have… too small to worry about probably.

Keep away from Whitening products, they are chock-a-block with chemicals, stay out of the sun, especially when it is the highest amount of UV rays. But another thing to look at is genetics, some people have naturally pale skin, some with a lightly pinkish skin tone, others tanned.

i dont recommend using bleach creams or products as some of them are full of chemicals and it is just unnatural. if you do want pale skin, just stay out of the sun, wear long shirts, sunscreen etc.
and i thought Michael Jackson had a disease named vitligo that made him lose his skin pigmentation??

Are those products good for fading freckles? And how long do they last? Your natural skin shade would come through as new skin cells form, I`d imagine. So it would take about 3 months for the effect to wear off??
Hrmmm…
I have naturally pale skin, but I do have freckles that are beginning to darken as I get older. I wear sun screen, and generally avoid sunlight when I can, because there`s a history of skin cancer in my family.
The idea of bleaching my skin makes me a little wary, however, because it`s already sensitive to begin with!

I`m using palmer`s skin sucess fade cream at the moment on some sunburn i got on my shoulder months ago and has faded to a light brown but wont go away. I think it takes awhile to work but it seems to be helping to even out my skin tone.

My sister in law uses the shisheido range of whitening products and says they are amazing. There`s also a Palmer`s lightening cream that you could try.

I`ve got naturally pale skin – its genetics – but I also avoid the sun and if I do do outside I always wear a sunscreen, for health reasons and to avoid the ever dreaded wrinkles – myabe theres a whitening product like what Michael Jackson used to whiten his skin, or if might of been a pill that he took internally – I dont know how he did it.
