Nowadays the market abounds in almost any type of product. Brands after brands are released and made stronger just to sell the same products, with the same recipes and same purposes. Rarely a new and revolutionary product appears and when this happens, hundreds of similar products appear in the following weeks or months. With this entire confusion and with the struggle of having the best product ever, many costumers no longer know what product to purchase in order to satisfy their needs. If the choice is easier to make when it comes to food, clothes or useful objects around the house, when it comes to skin care products the choice becomes more and more difficult as you just see the product, but are not able to see if it will work for you or not. Thus, it is mainly a trial and error experience until they find the product that will satisfy all their needs.
Yet, in order to be on the right path towards finding the product, there are some things a customer must know and take into consideration when buying skin whitening products. The first, and probably the most obvious one, is the skin type and color. The skin whitening products are made up for different types of skin, ranging from dark skin to light or yellowish skin, thus in order to find a product to work for you, it must be necessarily made for your color of skin.
There are also 3 different skin types which are applicable to all skin colors. These types of skin are dry skin, oily skin and normal skin. According to your type of skin all skin care products should be chosen, including the skin whitening products.
Another thing which should be known when purchasing skin whitening products is that some of them may contain irritant substances or even substances which may have serious side effects for people with sensitive skin or for pregnant women. A very good example in this direction is the hydroquinone, a substance which is reported to cause fetal malformations and even affect the pregnant woman. Thus, you should look carefully on the ingredients contained by that product and see whether you are allergic to one of them or if the product is safe for you.
To get white, many methods are used, ranging traditional treatments to use drugs and cosmetics sold in the market. Choose natural based products such as white Mulberry, arbutin, licorice, kojic acid, alpha hydroxy acid and beta hydroxy acid, which can be found on the product packaging, such as whitening cream, etc.. There are also substances that have been banned by the government because it is considered dangerous.
Mercury, very quickly remove blemishes and make colors lighter skin, but harmful to the skin and can be toxic to the nervous system and kidneys.
Hydroquinone, often cause skin irritation, sensitive skin and burned. Hydroquinone also cause dependence. When to stop using products that contain it, the stain will be back again.
Retin-A or AHA, chemically affect shedding of dead skin cells that contain the pigment, so it can irritate the skin and make it sensitive.
Choose a face bleach products, whitening face cream, etc. that contain a sunscreen with an SPF of at least 15 to inhibit the formation of melanin pigment back caused by exposure to sunlight at 9:00 a.m. to 16:00. For SPF, select one of the following materials; avobenzone, titanium dioxide, or zinc oxide.
Also, the date of production, the date of expiration as well as the number of days in which the product should be used after is opened should be written on the bottle or package of the product. This is highly important as some substances may change their properties after a certain period and if applied on skin may further increase the problems.
