What products are better for my skin type?

Hi my name is Brittany and I am an African American woman with a skin tone of 5-6 on your skin tone chart. I have had problems in the past with acne and I still suffer from break outs on occasion. I have acne scars, uneven skin tone and large pores on my cheeks because of this. What lightening products would you recommended for my problem? I would like to lighten to a 3-4. What is the difference between whitening and lightening? Thank you so much for your time!!

Answer:

Hi Brittany, here's the difference between Diana Stalder's Skin Lightening and Whitening Line -

Whitening Lotion/Cream – for whitening with anti-aging ingredient; best for overall whitening/lightening of skin.

Lightening Lotion/Cream – for whitening with stronger potency than the Whitening Lotion/Cream to target small dark spots and hyperpigmentation.

For your purpose, try the Acne Scar Lightening Kit under "Skin Whitening Kits".

Remember, results will depend on your skin sensitivity. The number of shades that you can lighten is also dependent on how much your skin will allow it. :)
