If any of these questions sound like yours, then you 're not alone.
But, the bad thing is all the misleading information that 's advertised.
For instance, did you know that chemical peels can be harmful and have a long healing process? And, while your face is healing it looks as though your face is literally falling off.
On top of the false claims, have you seen the price tag on some of these skin whitening treatments lately? Some cost thousands of dollars and are no better than those hyped up over-the-counter products that do absolutely nothing for the majority of whiter skin seekers, like you.
But Who Am I To Know? My Story...
First, let me tell you, I 'm naturally a Jamaican woman of color. I was born with a dark brown skin and have lived most of my youth years pretty unaware of the problems my skin color was going to cause me.
As a matter of fact, my mother is Caucasian (White). She is originally from the UK and met my father while on holiday. She fell in love with him and they quickly married and moved to Jamaica.
A year or so later, I was born; a tiny 6lb baby girl with dark brown skin. Even if my mother was as white as it can be, I took after the physical characteristics of my colored father.
It did not take long and I had a younger sister. She, unlike me resembled our mother and her skin was as white as snow.
My sister and I grew up to be very close. Apart from the difference in our skin color, we were like twins, same height, same look and with a very similar personality too.
But The Happy Years Were Ending..
Years went by fast and somewhere in my teenage years I started noticing a trend: My sister was having more success than me in everything she did"
I loved my sister but was eager to know why she found a summer job as easy as 123 while I searched for a whole month and found only closed doors.
And why she was with her 2nd boyfriend while I was never ever been asked for a date!
Long story short, one day I found an article that opened my eyes and could explain all my questions, it stated that:
White People have all the advantages in the world; they get jobs easier, earn the highest salaries and attract more handsome partners.
Those words were hard on me. Having grown with a Caucasian sister I knew deep inside that they were true.
My Journey to a Whiter Skin
From that day onwards, I started using skin whitening products on a daily basis. I tried Skin Whitening Lotions, Creams, Pills, Soap, Bleaching Gels and many others. Unfortunately without too much success..
Fortunately, my dermatologist prescribed me a product that was being pretty effective - my skin color was getting whiter every passing day and I was very happy with the results.
Then, a few weeks later I noticed that while my skin was getting whiter, it was also getting dryer, the patchy spots got bigger and started to notice severe skin pigmentation - which made my problem even worse!
While walking down the street, people actually looked at me in disgust as they scurried as far away from me as they could. Boy.. did that hurt.
I tried to blend the spots with my natural color with makeup, but people could still clearly tell something was odd with the way I looked.
Alone... Ugly... Sad... Insecure...
The shame of having people look at me kept me isolated in my house. I felt ugly... sad... insecure...
The worse part about it was that it seemed like I was the only person on the planet who had this problem. Everywhere I looked, I saw girls (and guys) with practically flawless, smooth skin.
Just before I was going to give up, I started researching about skin lightening treatments. I searched from traditional remedies to the latest skin whitening solutions available.
After years of research, I 'm happy to say I finally found a skin whitening solution that I call nothing short of magical. What was even more exciting was to find out that I could lighten my skin tone for pennies!

That Works!
