From what I know, vitamin c is the one with the effect of lightening skin. The quickest way is by getting a shot of vitamin c at your local beauty center. Not with a cream.
A friend of mine does it once a month. Her husband is the consultant (him being a physician) at a well known beauty center here.
But you must know that pigmentation of the skin can't change drastically. If you were born with dark skin, I suggest you accept and love the way you are. Some people consider girls with dark skin are exotic :).
But if you really want to, then just try the method above. Good luck :).
I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
