hi. i used a bleaching cream, actually it's a stalder product. i applied it on my butt hopeful to whiten it. unfortunately, after 3 nights of application, the peeling action started but it was painful and then the condition worsened. i now have black butt. ='( i may have burnt my skin but swear, i applied only a small amount as what was indicated by the seller. what should i do now? it's very embarrasing.

Answer:

Hi Catherine, your skin is sensitive and the product is too strong for you. You didn't specify what you used nor I know if it's genuine or not. Burning the skin in 3 days is quite a harsh reaction.

Rest your skin for 2-3 weeks to relieve the burn. For now, apply aloe vera cream or vitamin E oil. When the skin is dry and healed and NOT reddish, then that's the time to resume the skin lightening regimen.

Try the Black Soap only, which is a milder skin lightening soap. Results can be delayed, but it is the only safer product your skin can take. :)
