#2 Pick

Melamix Skin Lightener & Blending Creme

We placed the Melamix Skin Lightener & Blending Creme in our #2 spot, as it may be quite effective but also comes with a few caveats. This is a skincare product with hydroquinone which carries with it some controversy. We were also disappointed to see that it contains parabens. Additionally, we have only found a handful of reviews from people who have used this product.

Hydroquinone is a well-known ingredient which has been proven to lighten skin. In order to be sold over the counter, there is a maximum concentration allowed of 2%. But, in order to be truly effective, there should be at least a concentration of 4%, which is what this Melamix Skin Lightener & Blending Creme contains. However, it is a double-edged sword.

The risks involved with hydroquinone are not simple. In order to obtain this product, you must have a prescription from your doctor and subsequently be closely monitored by a dermatologist. This is because hydroquinone has serious side effects with long-term use. Additionally, hydroquinone has been known to cause skin discoloration, which is exactly the opposite of what people looking to brighten their skin are looking for. Also, while this product may be effective at blocking the synthesis of melanin, as soon as you stop using it, your normal melanin production will commence. Therefore this product is only effective as long as you are using it.

#3 Pick

Rodan + Fields REVERSE Skin Lightener

Our third pick goes to REVERSE Skin Lightening Treatment from Rodan + Fields. This product contains hydroquinone which, while it carries risks, is also a proven active ingredient to lighten skin.

However, it contains only 2% hydroquinone, which is less than what was recommended by various clinical studies. Since the company itself has a good track record and most consumers we spoke to were pretty satisfied with it, we still consider this to be a solid product. Just remember that it has a few slight disadvantages.
