Can Skin lighteners get rid of acne?
This is going to be my 2nd and last thread for the night.
But do skin lighteners get rid of acne?
Because I started using one ans I started t oget acne, but it might also be because I used a different moisturizer that wasn't as strong as the one I normally use.

Hmmmm. Some can. But they are more likely to cause acne. Then get rid of it. BUT that's just my experience.

Depending on the brand you are using and their ingredients. Many also use oils and/or petrolatum which can clog the pores, and some also may contain silicones which sits on the surface of your skin and can not penetrate. But some may help clear acne usually if they have ingredients like aha acids, retinol, etc

To remove acne scar and marks, all you really need is retin-a (tretinoin) and sunblock w/ high spf. My spots on my cheeks are now gone and the ones on my forehead are lightening up.

I believe SOME of them do help with acne. I think this is due to the AHA's that are in them like glycolic or lactic.
And I've got to agree with GG, Retin-A is pretty good. I'd only advise to use it at night only though and sunblock during the day.
