bleach is good for face or not - #20346
I am really confused about something and could use some advice. I've been doing a lot of research and came across people saying bleach is good for face or not, and honestly, I have no idea who to believe! A month ago, I tried a DIY skin treatment that involved some sort of bleach, thinking it’d help with these dark spots I’ve had forever. At first, it seemed to work, my skin was looking brighter for a bit, but then I started seeing some redness and irritation. I seriously don’t want to mess up my face, especially since I have an important event coming up and want my skin to look its best. My friend told me that bleach is good for face or not, it just depends on the type you choose—whatever that means. Is there a certain kind of bleach that’s safe for skin? I feel like I just jumped down a rabbit hole of conflicting information! And now I'm worried if using any form of bleach is worth the risk. Can someone please share their experiences or knowledge? I just want to figure out if bleach is good for face or not before I make any decisions that could really screw things up. Thanks!
