The basics of skin lightening are:

Exfoliation

Lightening

Moisturising

Skin Building

Protection

Exfoliation: this is always the first step and will always occur whenever you want to lighten, have blemish-free skin, get rid of or prevent wrinkles, etc… You can do this a number of different ways, but this is what I would recommend for you:

Purchase an exfoliating soap like Likas Papaya Soap.

Invest in Exfoliating Gloves/Cloths/Mitts to (gently) scrub skin with a couple of times a week.

Take a weekly min salt bath (half cup of salt+drop of lavender+drop of olive oil)

Get a Lactic Acid Peel or Glycolic Acid Peel and mix with your favourite lotion

Please be careful and be patient with your skin, over-exfoliation is not pretty and scrubbing your skin to death does not get results quicker. Also please be very careful with the above acids, though they are Alpha Hydroxy Acids and therefore the mildest of peels, they are still acids and burns happen all the time if you don’t do your research and use them properly.

Sidenote- Some Retin A(skin cream) users use it to help their lighteners penetrate further and to encourage peeling & collagen production. Please note that you should do extensive research on this and maybe even speak to your dermatologist before buying.

Lightening: this is where you would incorporate a product that contains active ingredients that inhibit melanin production. I honestly don’t think you should use a lightener until your body is exfoliated as it is kind of like a waste of the lightener (it won’t penetrate far enough to be effective when you have all that dead skin in the way). The best way is to incorporate a lightener after – weeks of solid exfoliation. If you do choose to use a lightener, I would recommend:

Nadinola Extra Strength, Caro Light or Skin Light.

These are just HQ creams, there are many other lighteners available that do NOT use HQ. Again, you need to be careful when trying out lighteners. Everybody’s skin tolerates things differently, so please pay attention to your skin if you choose to use HQ. There are plenty of products out there, and most have been used by SCT members so if you come across anything you haven’t heard of, search it’s name using the search function, or type in the name of the product + SCT into Google and something is bound to come up. Also, there are threads on all natural lightening which you should maybe have a peek at.

Moisturising: this is important for healthy skin in general, but particularly for skin that is subject to exfoliation and lightening. This can be done by incorporating things like Vitamin E oil, Jojoba oil, Coconut oil, Eucerin lotion,Cocoa Butter, and Shea Butter into your regimen.

Skin Building: this is important for people those who lighten and exfoliate because ********* away layers of the skin can be dangerous and cause skin thinning. You need to research all the ways you can get your collagen production up. Luckily AHAs encourage cell turnover, but to be on the safe side I use things like Emu Oil and St Ives Collagen Elastin Lotion. Some research has shown that creams containing collagen don’t work because the collagen molecules are too large to be absorbed by the skin, but I like the St Ives lotion because it moisturises very well for me too.

Protection: this is the most CRUCIAL element of lightening! You could have the most solid effective regimen in the world but if you go out unprotected in the sun, all your progress will go down the toilet.
