HI, I used to have nice even really dark skin until I started using hydroquinone based clearessence products. They lightened my skin after more than 3yrs of use but gave me a light(2-3 tones lighter) patch on the skin of my upper lip and forehead. I completely stopped using all these products and I got back my darker skin but my forehead and upper lip have stayed the same-much more lighter now and my face looks terrible. I have started using makari products now but the patches have remained the same.Is there anything I can use to make the patches darker? Help anyone,I'm desperate!:confused:

Have you checked with a skin specialist?
This could be a vitamin deficiency and not a reaction to the creams/lotions,but check with a doctor just to be sure what it is before trying out new products.

Thank you so much, I never thought of that.
