Do Fairness soaps work?

These skin lightening or fairness soaps don’t work.

Firstly nothing can lighten or change your natural skin colour. But if you have tanning or dark spots, then using certain serums can help lighten the spots.

Use these serums once or twice a day and follow up with a sunscreen.

▪️Time taken for tanning or dark spots to fade depends on various factors :
✔️site
✔️baseline skin colour
✔️severity of tanning
✔️associated sun burn
✔️genetics

▪️Avoid hard mid day sun between 11 am to 3 pm as much as possible

▪️treat the underlying condition promptly to prevent dark spots as in cases of acne dark spots

▪️Use physical measures to protect skin :
✔️carry an umbrella
✔️wear a cap
✔️wide sunglasses
✔️thin full sleeve clothing

✅Using a sunscreen regularly is the mainstay of getting rid of tanning .
