Hi tell me about side effects of fair and lovely men's face wash and face cream thanks.

Question

One major side-effect of fairness creams is that your skin with the prolonged usage of such creams becomes extremely photosensitive. Thus the moment you are out in the sun a hell of a lot of problems start for you such as itching of skin, getting rashes, your skin turning red, blistering of the skin and even getting painful sunburns. Using any facial masks or pack on such a skin may exacerbate the problem. Secondly using fairness creme for a prolonged period may make your skin acne prone. Acne is one skin problem which everybody wants to avoid and it's really pointless to welcome it into your life by using the wrong cosmetic! Thirdly if you use fairness creams for a long time, your skin will start to sag fast and you'll come to lose your youthful look sooner than your actual age. The reason is the quick loss of the skin's tightness, elasticity and a noticeable skin thinning. In most cases, the fairness creams come with chemicals like Mercury, Hydroquinone and even steroids. If you expose your skin continually to these chemicals it may, in the long run, cause lethal skin damage giving rise to problems as serious as skin cancer even. The chemicals in a fairness cream also lead to pigmentation problems and aggravate it like anything. So if you think that you’ll mitigate your pigmentation skin issues by using fairness creams you are actually walking completely on the wrong track. So these are the 5 major side-effects of fairness creams which you should definitely consider prior to buying your pack. Make sure that the particular brand that you are choosing to add fairness to your skin doesnot contain the above mentioned ingredients to be on the safer side.
