Hi, One should always try to achieve ones constitutive skin color as how much hard one tries a person with dusky complexion cannot become fairer by applying creams. Do not apply creams containing HY Chat Doctor.  Just to have a good skin tone, use a good sunscreen with SPF more than 40 in between 10 am to 4 pm and repeat it every three to four hours if out in sun. One can use mild skin creams containing Comic acid, licorice, albumin, vitamin C, vitamin b3 and vitamin b5 on daily basis to improve ones skin tone. Also, few sessions of chemical peels can be taken to exfoliate the skin and improve the skin tone. Similarly, monotherapy with vitamin C and glutathione can improve the skin color to certain extent. However, as a doctor I would always promote a skin regime to have a healthy glowing even toned skin rather than striving for a fairer skin. Take care.
