It has always been called organic whitening or lightening creams. Promising you overnight skin whitening effects. Such as 3 days Miracle whitening creams, Egyptian whitening creams, etc. Let me be straight with you. None of these creams contain any organic additives. These creams are usually concocted with lots of hydroquinone and tube creams, these tube creams contain 85% of steroids, which have been declared by fda as one of the major causes of cancer, stroke,skin cancer, permanent damaged skin,kidney failures, in African women and men. Arbutin, kojic acid, glutathione, and vitamin C has been said to be safer instead. Which the real arbutin,kojic acid,glutathione are only readily available to verified laboratories to produce safe skin whitening, lightening and antiaging products. Anyone that tells you he or she uses kojic acid, arbutin and glutathione to mix creams, please ask him if he or she is a chemist and where she/he got it from. Some of these cream mixers has gone as far as mixing hair shampoo, bleach (especially hypo) into their so called miracle whitening creams. I knew all these cos, I paid to learn these things. And alas, what I learnt was shocking! I see most women walking with damaged skin such as green veins, thin skin that get bruised easily, stretch marks and severe hyperpigmentation. Since long term usage of hydroquinone, steroids and mercury lead to all these skin and health issues.
I urge us to be aware of what we are applying on our skin. Your skin tells a lot about your general well being. I personally use foreign Skincare products. And the only place I can get that in Naija is From SisiNene.
Not marketing for them o, but at least they are one of the beauty retailers that won't lie to you about your skin and looks. They stock foreign cosmetics especially USA. You can purchase directly from their site.
