To get a brighter and fairer skin, one needs to spare some time and learn about the various skin care products available. From lightening the skin to clearing it of all blemishes, scars and marks, skin care products can sort all on the list. Nevertheless, among all, skin whitening soaps have found a strong appeal among users worldwide.
 
The secret? Well, read on!
 
What are these soaps made of?
 
Whitening soaps contain active natural ingredients that act on the skin to give it a lighter shade. Here’s a list of ingredients that become the whitening agents in these soaps –

• Glutathione
• Kojic acid
• Fruit extracts
• Mulberry root extracts
• Liquorice leaf extracts
• Alpha arbutin
• Placenta

These natural extracts make up specific soaps like glutathione based or kojic soap, helping the skin shed its darkness and give out a fair complexion.
 
How do whitening soaps work?
 
Skin lightening soaps act on the skin in two ways to lighten it. While one works from the very first instance, the other builds up after prolonged use.
 
i.By exfoliating it and removing the dead cells, dirt and oil to reveal the epidermal layer lying underneath. It is clearer and softer than the tanned and damaged upper layer.
 
ii.Through the action of whitening components like glutathione, arbutin or kojic acid. These active ingredients act on melanin present under the skin, a compound responsible for pigmentation. They deactivate melanin so that the skin becomes light. They are also effective in restricting melanin production. It helps in keeping your skin fair for a long time.
 
These ingredients, being natural in their source, are healthier alternatives and help retain the skin’s suppleness.
 
Rejuvenating uses of skin whitening soaps:
 
Although the commonly known use of skin lightening soaps is to lighten skin color, their utility is not limited to that. These soaps also have rejuvenating properties and give the skin all-round protection. Presence of powerful antioxidants like glutathione and antibacterial properties of kojic acid leave the skin with a healthy and smoother radiance. Here are some of their lesser-known uses –

• They fight against sun spots, melasma or hyperpigmentation.
• Exfoliation also leads to the removal of blackheads and whiteheads that make the skin dull.
• Their anti-ageing properties help remove wrinkles, freckles and age marks.
• Their high glycerine content restricts the breakout of bacterial acne, pimples and blemishes.

Tips to use the soaps for faster and better results:
 
i.Read instructions thoroughly to know the dos and don’ts while using the soaps.
ii.If using a kojic soap, make sure to mix it with water before applying on your skin. Rinse off with cold water.
iii.Use a sponge or exfoliating gloves to remove dead cells exposed by the soap.
iv.Limit your exposure to the sun. Apply sunblock lotion of high SPF if you are going out. Excessive exposure can lead to re-darkening of your skin.
v.If you have sensitive skin, do not leave the soap on your face for more than three minutes. For those with normal skin, you can extend its duration to 5 minutes.
 
Skin whitening soaps can bear effective results for people having uneven skin tone or discoloration. For first time buyers, going for a reputed brand will assure you get the best results in less time.
