    Hydroquinone (HQ) is usually the ingredient that is found in skin lightening products and has been proven to work well. You can purchase 2% HQ products as an OTC (over the counter) or a higher % as a prescription. Regarding the specific brands, this is something that you should ask your dermatologist about. I’m guessing that they are all similar. What I do know is if you combine the use of HQ with a retinoid (Retin-A for example) or an alpha hydroxyacid product, it will produce faster results. You also need to faithfully use a sunscreen over the treated area or else it will be a waste.

    There are 2 main ingredients used for whitening your skin.
    1) Kojic Acid- A natural ingredient found in mushrooms that lightens up your skin.
    2)Hydroquinone- A synthetic ingredient that lightens up your skin,can be irritating and carcenogenic.
    Please not: Lightening up your skin reduces the melanin in your skin, as well as reducing protein production, which is critical for the present and future health of your skin.
