I'm African American and want to have fair skin, almost pale.

(California)

I am an African American teenager who really wishes to have fair skin or pale skin. Is it possible to reach that goal being African American? My skin color is similar to a medium brown milk chocolate. Is it possible to reach this goal with the whitening pills and soap or will i need to go in reach of sometime more stronger?

I really would appreciate your answer. Thank you very much Maria.

Answer:

Hi Summer, we have had success with some of our African American users. If you checked our before and after photos, it would surprise you that these individuals achieved some improvement within the first 2 weeks. So yes, it is possible for you too.

Results will vary depending on one's unique skin sensitivity, body metabolism, skin color and how much lighter your skin will allow it. How your own skin type reacts to our products is one factor that will determine if you'll see a fast (1 week) or slow (few weeks) improvement.

The only issue for skin color is how much melanin content one's skin has. The darker the skin tone, the more melanin (brown pigment that causes skin to darken) there is. This will mean one should stay in the skin lightening regimen longer to expect results.

The whitening soaps / lotion / cream can give faster results because these are directly applied onto skin, while skin whitening pills work as dietary supplements that work from the inside out and can take a few months to show results.

Most of our buyers do both - they want to see a fast improvement while waiting for the effects of the whitening pills to kick in. :)
