April 5, 2024By Glutathione Tationil

Summer presents unique challenges for those pursuing skin whitening. The increased sun exposure, heat, and outdoor activities can work against your goals. This guide helps you maintain and protect your results during the warmest months.

Summer Challenges for Skin Whitening

Why Summer is Difficult

  • Tan develops (reversing whitening)
  • Dark spots worsen
  • Uneven tone returns
  • Months of progress lost
