day whitening cream - #21758

Shanaya

I am really struggling with this issue about skin care. I've been using a day whitening cream for a bit now because, well, I wanted to even out my skin tone and feel more confident. The thing is, I got this sunspot on my cheek that won't go away, and I thought a good day whitening cream would help but maybe I picked the wrong one. I feel like my skin is sometimes getting kind of dry and flaky after using it, which is weird cause it claims to moisturize too, you know? I have even tried different day whitening cream brands but still no luck. Has anyone else experienced this? I always thought the sunspot would fade faster with regular use. I thought I should also be seeing more brightness by now, I mean, it’s been weeks! Just yesterday I noticed some peeling, should I have gone for a dermatologist or keep trying with over-the-counter stuff? Should I be mixing a day whitening cream with another product or should it be a solo act? I’m really confused about what to expect with a day whitening cream, and is it normal to feel my skin this way? Any suggestions or advice would be much appreciated!
