nowadays, there are a lot of whitening soaps and whitening lotion available. some are with expensive brands and some are just generic. i just want to ask your opinion on what brands have worked for you and how long did you see the effect. i have been using avons whitening lotion but then i dont see the results yet. i also want to use kojic soap but then i am afraid of what will be the result to my skin.

i know one popular artist, actually he is a singer from the 90's. but he is still active right now. i heard from one source, if i am not mistaken, from a magazine. that this popular artist used to bath with a papaya soap which i cannot remember the brand. he used to soak a number of the soap to the tub and let them melt with the water. his procedure gave good result. he is really white until now.

Like you, I also wants of having fairer skin. I tried every product there is in store that promises a youthful, whiter skin in 2 weeks of using them. Trial and error here and there. I can recommend you to use kojic soap but if your skin is sensitive, I don't encourage you to use it because it contains strong ingredients. And so, for a sensitive skin I recommend any natural whitening products that are available in stores. I'm currently using kojic soap for my bath, nivea lotion with SPF and i think it's making little improvement as time goes by. For me face, Ponds Black and Nivea toner and moisturizer works best. Good luck!

It seems people always want different to what they are given, you want whiter skin in my younger days I used to lay in the sun for hours to get darker skin...I have straight hair and use a hot rod to make girls and people with curly hair use a straightener...we are a funny lot...

i guess we want to change our skin or hair sometimes because we are curious if we will look good in a different and unique style. i want to have a whiter skin because somehow i am tired of being fair skinned, just want to try something new

I want a whiter skin too, but I never have used any kind of whitening product on my body skin. In the case of my face, I used SEKKISEI of KOSE(Japan) and I think it works after using one month. I hope you can tell me what is the results after you use avons too. no matter what kind of whitening product, in my opinion insist on using that is most important. fighting!!

i have tried to use kojic soap but decided to stop because I have not known anyone that succeeded to have whiter skin through it. I hope someone will enlighten us about kojic soap and if it is really effective.

You can use Bleaching soap from RDL friend. That's what I use and well, it gives a little lighter skin compared before :) for the face, you can use cleanser and add a little lemon in your cleanser. Lemons can also lighten your skin. Or you can try milk and lemon combined :3 I haven't tried that yet but I guess it is effective since lemons can lighten your skin and milk can moisturize your skin and gives it a glow :)
