Hi, thanks for this list. Just wanted to know if you can add more additional natural safe lighteners? I had used the Makari brand as well as the Diana Stalder papay kojic soap. These had lightened me about 3 shades. Also can you do a review on the Fair & Flawless products, speciically the 5x Body Lightening and the Soho Parfait? I had heard goood things about these too but would like to learn more about them. As well as the 55H+ and the Belo Essential Skin Lightening products. Thanks.
