Are You Looking For a Safe Skin Whitening
Product for a Brighter, Lighter
Complexion?Your medicine cabinet is probably full of liquids, creams, and
powders designed to give your skin a more even appearance
and hide imperfections. Unfortunately, even the best products
don’t look natural. What if there was a way to get bright,
smooth, peaches and cream skin for real? More and more,
women are using skin lightening products to achieve long-
lasting, natural-looking results. Let’s look a little closer at skin
whitening products to find out why it’s so important to choose
creams formulated with all-natural ingredients that are safe and
effective.
There are numerous issues that can cause skin to become unevenly pigmented and dull. The major
ones that can be addressed through the use of a skin lightening product are:
Liver spots, sun spots, and age spots: They’re usually harmless, but these black, brown, and
grey areas of pigmentation can destroy the appearance of once flawless skin. Flat and
typically oval in shape, these blemishes can be as small as a freckle or more than a centimeter
in diameter. These spots are most noticeable on fair skin, are unfortunately very common,
and are mainly caused by sun exposure.
Hyperpigmentation: When the body produces too much melanin, unsightly dark patches can
appear on the skin, a problem known as hyperpigmentation. Sun exposure can cause or
worsen this problem. Some medications, pregnancy, and certain medical conditions are also
associated with hyperpigmentation. Melasma: This is a specific type of hyperpigmentation that often occurs during pregnancy. It is
characterized by brown or tan patches that typically appear on the face.
Skin bleaching is one method that can be used to address the skin issues outlined above, and it’s
also popular among women who simply desire a fairer, more luminous complexion. Anyone
considering skin bleaching should be aware that some substances found in these types of products
are associated with serious risks and side effects. Three ingredients in particular that should be
avoided are hydroquinone, kojic acid and mercury. According to Dr. Bill Lloyd, M.D., a world renown
doctor contributing expert on a variety of healthcare issues, “Hydroquinone has been on the cancer
watch list for decades, both because of animal studies (rats given tons of hydroquinone to ingest)
and retrospective health surveys that compared cancer risks by occupation/environmental
exposure.” Over-the-counter hydroquinone products are banned in several countries, and those
sold in the U.S. can contain only small concentrations of the substance. Kojic acid can be extremely
irritating causing redness, itchiness, inflammation and tenderness. Skin can become sensitized with
increased use. Products containing kojic acid should not be used with other skincare products
containing salicylic acid, alpha hydroxy acid or retinol because the incidence and severity of adverse
effects will be increased. Mercury, another ingredient found in some skin whitening products, can
irritate the skin and damage the nervous system, brain, and kidneys. It also poses serious risks to
unborn children.

As unsettling as the above information is, it shouldn’t cause you to swear off all skin lightening
products. Instead, read ingredient lists carefully, and look for natural ingredients that are gentle and
effective, such as:
Gigawhite: Derived from botanicals, this all-natural complex has been shown to noticeably
brighten skin with regular application. An in-vivo study also proved that using Gigawhite on a
regular basis caused age spots to fade and shrink.
Biowhite: Like Gigawhite, Biowhite is made from botanical extracts specially chosen for their
skin whitening effects. These non-damaging and non-toxic ingredients – which include
extracts of mulberry, saxifraga, and grape – have been shown through in-vivo tests to reduce
skin pigmentation and boost luminosity.
Sepiwhite: Sepiwhite is a molecule that works by “antagonizing” alpha-MSH and inhibiting
tyrosinase. Tyrosinase is the essential enzyme in the formation of melanin by converting
DOPA to DOPAquinone. Therefore, reducing its activity is a principal method of improving skin
tone.
Alpha Arbutin: Alpha Arbutin is a biosynthetic ingredient that blocks epidermal melanin
biosynthesis by inhibiting enzymatic oxidation of Tyrosine and Dopa thereby reducing
production of melanin or skin pigment.
Hyaluronic acid: This potent moisturizer found in the body won’t lighten skin, but it'splumping, toning, and smoothing effects make it an ingredient you should look for when
you’re shopping for a skin lightening product. Hyaluronic acid will help keep lily-white skin
looking youthful and flawless.
Age spots, liver spots, sun spots, and other conditions that cause ugly dark patches or result in an
overall irregular tone can make us feel older and less attractive. Skin lighteners are a great way to
deal with these problems, but using some products containing hydroquinone and kojic acid simply
isn’t worth the risk. To get that bright, radiant even skin tone effect you want without putting your
health in jeopardy, choose products containing mild, plant-based ingredients that have been shown
to work though clinical studies.
Due to the wide variety of skin lightening products being sold in department stores, pharmacies andon the internet, we scrutinized the most currently marketed skin bleaching lotions and looked at the
most current research in order to assess which brightening products are most effective. The
premier skin lightening products include quality ingredients that have the ability to lighten skin
tone, reduce freckles, sun spots and liver spots, while promoting brighter and more radiant skin. A
quality product will have the ability to promote skin clarity and improve skin's overall texture. As
with all creams and lotions it is important to follow the directions for use to get maximal results.

Tips For Giving Your Complexion A Brighter And Uniform Tone
Use a good skin-brighting product to help diminish age spots and improve skin tone. Formulas with
botanical extracts combined with high end ingredients such as Gigawhite, Biowhite, Alpha Arbutin,
Sepiwhite, Haluronic acid
Gently cleanse and exfoliate daily with a gentle exfoliant such as glycolic acid to remove thickened,
aged skin cells. Exfoliating also normalizes skin…minimizing lines, roughness and spots.
Keep your skin well hydrated by using a moisturizer that balances skin lipids and natural moisture
levels.
Use anti-aging ingredients such as vitamin A, glycolic acid and BHAs to help reduce fine lines and
wrinkles, improving skin texture.
Incorporate antioxidants, such as superoxide dismutase, vitamin E and C, and plant extracts into
your skin care to reduce signs of aging by protecting skin and rebuilding damaged layers.
Avoid sun exposure and use a physical sunscreen containing zinc oxide everyday with a minimum
SPF 15
