Skin Lightening vs. Skin Bleaching

Skin Lightening

  • A targeted, antioxidant-rich skin care system that corrects uneven skin tone, unwanted discolouration and diminishes the appearance of dark spots over time. It is all natural, fast acting and safe for all skin types

  • Works by targeting only excess melanin by inhibiting an enzyme in our skin called tyrosinase which is responsible for the extra melanin production

  • Targets specific areas of discolouration or uneven skin tone

  • Our Skin Lightening products are made from natural ingredients and are vegan-friendly, reducing common skin irritations. However, always perform a patch test before full application to ensure you have no allergic reactions

  • Aims to achieve a more uniform and radiant complexion without altering the skin's natural colour permanently

  • Generally promotes healthier skin and fades discolouration gradually over time without causing significant alterations in skin colour

Skin Bleaching

  • Involves the use of harsh chemicals such as hydroquinone, kojic acid, mercury, retinol or corticosteroids to intentionally lighten the skin beyond its natural tone and can irritate sensitive skin

  • Suppresses melanin production or destroys existing melanin in the skin, resulting in a significant and often unnatural lightening effect

  • Can lead to overall lightening of the skin, affecting its natural colour

  • Carries serious risks, including skin irritation, thinning, increased sun sensitivity, and long-term damage to the skin's barrier function. May also lead to irreversible damage and increased risk of skin cancer with prolonged use

  • Focuses on lightening the skin beyond its natural tone, often for cosmetic reasons, with potentially harmful consequences

  • Can lead to irreversible damage to the skin, disruption of its natural barrier function, and increased susceptibility to sun damage and skin cancer with long-term use
