Hey everyone I seriously need your help!

I am filipino and have light skin. I have light skin on my chest,top of arms, thighs, back but have really really dark skin on my arms, neck and especially my underarms.

I really need help because I'm going to be having a débutante ball and its been my dream to wear a pretty dress but I can't because of the dark areas of my skin.

Recently I went to the phils to visit family and friends and went shopping to look for everything that whitens skin so I bought different brands of papaya soap, eskinal, amira magic cream etc. I also bought this item called " MAXI-PEEL #2 EXFOLIANT " which is supposed to whiten skin but I dno if it really works because I never herd of it before so I'm asking for everyone's help.

Does it really work?
Is there anything else I can do within a month to whiten my skin?

Even though you are already dark complected try going to a tanning salon, it shouldn't darken the spots you already have, and if you are scared it will put sunscreen on those spots, or towels. If possible go to a dermatologist and see what they may suggest, I would honestly try a tanning bed

Hmm good idea nut I really don't want to go any darker.. I'm dark enough as it is.. thnx anyway
