In the Indian market, 'whitening' is often misunderstood. At Sking, we focus on **Brightening and Radiance**—restoring your skin's natural, healthy tone without harmful chemicals.
Myth 1: You can permanently change your skin tone
Your genetic skin tone is beautiful and cannot be 'switched'. However, you can remove tan, pigmentation, and dullness to reveal your brightest possible self.
Myth 2: Instant whitening products are safe
Any product promising 'instant white' likely contains bleaches or high loads of titanium dioxide which only provides a temporary white mask and can damage your skin barrier.
Myth 3: Brightening products make skin thin
Only products with steroids do this. Safe brightening agents actually strengthen the skin by reducing oxidative stress.
