body whitening bleach - #12895

Aasha

I am really concerned about my recent experience with body whitening bleach. A few weeks ago, I decided to try this new product I found online because I've always felt self-conscious about my skin tone. The ad said it was "completely safe" and promised noticeable results in just a few days. Well, I started using the body whitening bleach and at first, everything seemed fine. But then I noticed my skin started to feel super sensitive and itchy, like it was burning a bit after application. I thought maybe it was just my skin adjusting or something. After about a week, I had a horrible rash! I wasn't expecting that at all! It looks really bad and I'm worried now. Is this a common side effect with body whitening bleach?? Seriously, should I continue using it or stop right away? Also, have any of you guys dealt with similar issues when using body whitening bleach? I just want to know if I should apply some type of cream or get an allergy test done or smthing. I mean, I'm kind of freaking out here because I've seen such mixed reviews about the safety of body whitening bleach. I don't wanna make my skin worse. Any advice would be greatly appreciated!
