bleaching face - #14851

Aadhya

I am really confused about this whole bleaching face thing. Like, I’ve been reading so much about it lately; my friend swears by it, she says it totally transformed her skin. But I’ve also heard it can have some serious side effects. Last month, I tried a popular product, and at first, I was like wow, my skin looked brighter, but then a few days later, I started to notice some weird redness and dryness. I don’t know if that’s normal?! I didn’t expect that from someone who’s used it for ages. Should I continue with the bleaching face routine or try something else? My skin is kinda sensitive, and I worry I might be doing more harm than good. And like, what exactly should I look for in products if I decide to keep going? I’ve read that some ingredients can be super harsh, and I really don’t wanna mess up my skin. But then again, I see these amazing results on social media, and I start thinking maybe I’m just doing it wrong? Is it common for people to have reactions like mine when trying to bleach their face? Honestly, I just want something that’s safe but effective, so any advice would be super helpful!
