Skin brighteners are used to to remove dull or tired looking skin and bring out your original skin tone... it will have a lightening effect but will not lighten you more than you're your original skin tone.

Skin lighteners can also do the work of a brightener and but can also lighten you more than your real skin tone that is if you want, so using skin lighteners for a short term is advisable if all you want is to recover your real skin tone.. is just that a skin lightener will achieve the result faster than a brightener in getting your real skin tone.

Skin bleach is to have a different color entirely... to be white. Hope that helps
