skin tone lightening cream - #13199

Aditya

I am really confused about using skin tone lightening cream. I've been dealing with some dark spots on my face since last summer. It’s been super frustrating cause I tried so many products and nothing seems to work. A friend recommended a skin tone lightening cream that worked wonders for her, but I saw some reviews online saying they could cause irritation or even worse. Like, how do I even know if a skin tone lightening cream is right for me? I have sensitive skin, and I tried one a few months ago that left my face red and irritated. I don’t want that to happen again! Can using skin tone lightening cream actually lead to side effects or can some formulations be safer than others? And what's the deal with ingredients? I keep hearing about hydroquinone and other stuff, but honestly, I feel lost. Is it worth trying another skin tone lightening cream even if I had a bad experience previously? I really want to improve my skin, but I don’t want to make it worse, you know? Any advice would be super helpful!
