skin light ingredients - #18372
I am looking for some guidance about skin light ingredients, and I really hope someone can help. Last month I was at the beach for a vacation and ended up getting pretty sunburnt. After that, I noticed some dark spots on my skin that weren't there before, and it's really got me feeling self-conscious. I've tried a few over-the-counter creams but I'm not seeing much improvement. I've read that there are specific skin light ingredients that can help with discoloration, like vitamin C and kojic acid, but I don’t really know which ones are the best or if they really work. My friend suggested using licorice extract too, said it’s a miracle for brightening skin, but I'm worried about the side effects or if it clashes with my sensitive skin type. Are there any skin light ingredients that are safer or more effective than others? Also, can I mix these ingredients? I just want to be careful and not end up causing more issues for myself. Anyone had luck with certain products or combos? How long should I expect to see results with these skin light ingredients? I’m really hoping there’s a way to get my confidence back!
