When choosing lightening cream it’s very important to avoid chemical bleaching agents such as hydroquinone and use only mild creams from natural sourcing. It’s also good to avoid sun exposure and use make up foundation with high sunscreen factor (SPF).

Hi Shirleen,
I just found this blog and it is excellent. Thanks for all these useful reviews.
May I find out why we should avoid hydroquinone? A friend of mine had recommended a product, Dermatics,stating that it is excellent and I heard that there is a high content of hydroquinone in this product.
So is that good or not?
Thanks.
