Skin Bleaching - About Bleach Creams And Side Effects by Nobody: 11:46am On Dec 28, 2017

Almost everybody want a light skin believing it will
make them look good. Truth be told, light skin makes
you beautiful but using bleaching cream without
knowing the side effects is the beginning of your skin
destruction. The rate at which people are using bleach
cream in this modern world is quite alarming. They
believe that bleach cream is part of fashion. But am
going to open your eye to see what bleach cream can
do to your skin within short period of time. Before we
go into that, let us look at the powerful content used
in producing bleach creams.


One of the powerful content is 'Hydroquinone'. If you
have not heard of hydroquinone before then go and
check the body of the bleach cream container (am sure
you must have seen it). But come to think of it, why
is it that hydroquinone is a common content in all the
bleach cream in the world? Hydroquinone is a very
toxic agent in bleach cream and it has side effects on
the skin which i will explain later in this post.
Another powerful content is Mercury. It has the same
side effect with hydroquinone. I am very sure it won't
be hard to identify a bleach cream with all the
explanation above, just go and look at the content of
the cream and if you find hydroquinone, mercury,
topical retinoid, botanicals etc, then you should know
that it is a bleach cream.

Let us look at the
advantages of using bleach creams;



The most notable advantage of bleach cream is that it
makes your face white,clean and attractive that is why
most of the ladies or women usually use bleach cream
to look attractive.It helps in cleaning blackspot formed
on the skin. Having blackspot on the skin is one of
most irritating things. It makes the skin look bad, so
bleach cream can help to clear the spot.
Having look at the advantages, let also look at the
side effects or disadvantages of bleach cream;
Before using a particular bleach cream product, let us
take into account the side effects of bleach.


As I mentioned to you earlier,the basic agent used in
bleach cream is hydroquinone which is very dangerous
for human skin and it can cause skin cancer (I know
you know what that implies). To show how powerful
this bleach agent is, it is use for removing tattoos.
Another bleach cream agent which I discussed earlier in
this post, mercury. I said it has common side effects
with hydroquinone. It also cause skin cancer especially
when the skin is exposed sunlight soon after using the
bleach cream. Excessive use of bleach cream will cause
acne and pimples on the face so it is advisable to use
bleach cream occasionally. Excessive use of bleach
cream also makes the skin very soft and thin thereby
leading to the skin tearing apart which is referred to
as stretchmark. Stretch marks makes the skin look
ugly and more open to injury.


As you all know that the skin of the face is soft, so
it is not advisable to bleach the face regularly as it
would cause an infection. It is advisable to use bleach
cream only once in a while. After applying bleach
cream, don't expose yourself to sunlight for at least
one hour. After bleaching your skin, you will notice
that your skin gets dry, this is because of the
presence of topical retinoid in the bleach cream, so it
is advisable to use moisturizing lotion after using
bleach cream to avoid any side effects.

The bad side of bleaching creams outweigh the good side

Op, So what you're trying to say is that any cream that does not contain any of the above chemical is not a bleaching cream?

the percentage of d content in a cream is a determining factor.
