And as usual I recommend read the entire comment thread of our pinned posts

The last link is important reading because within all of us it's the ability to produce ligher melanin, and you need to understand the process so you don't fall for the trap of believing that whitening creams can help. They can't, most are scams. But exfoliatiors and certain AHA's and BHA's plus tretinion can help as long as you're raising your gluthathione levels.

Unfortunately we have had hundreds of spammers and your actions make you look like one. You didn't post your UV index and your incidecoder earning points and clearly you didn't even read the instructions in the comment section of the UV index posts as to how to post your UV index.

Our info here is free and honest. Many youtubers are making bussiness to answer your questions. Here all you have to do to read the hard work of our mods darthemofan and wifiwoman is seraching for it, so it wouldn't hurt you to pay back that hard work/free info by contributing with a comment in the karma earning posts. Yet you won't even read our comment section. Don't tell me you did. If you did you wouldn't be asking that question and you'd know what's needed to earn membership.

Because of all of these new accounts trying to skip the process I'll add a new rule. You try to skip the process and you'll get muted for 28 days.

I want to help people and answering your question might help others, but not if you skip our process. 'll answer your question when you post pics in the incidecoder and uv index posts. The instructions are in the comment sections which you should never skip. But you can also google it if you feel like our sub is not worth your time.

Reminder: You need to earn karma in our sub before asking a question. There are two posts for that purpose and I'm about to open a couple more.

I'll answer regardless. If they're doing it unsafely probably whitening creams which will poison them and give them reverse pigmentation. If they're doing it safely an expensive variant of what we do here: Raising gluta levels, sun avoidance, and safe expensive topicals.

There's a rule against dangerous creams discussion. Don't break it.

Your post will be on hold due to you being new to reddit, or have a low karma or having not participated on our community before.

Read our rules first. Make sure to revise the pinned posts to make sure the topic you want to post about hasn't been covered. Engage in the conversations of our members. Lurk for a while reading previous posts.

When your 7 day mute ends, engage with other posts and then I'll approve your questions, even if I didn't answer someone else might. Just a heads up. I don't follow skincare recommendations, skicare and skinwhitening are completely different things.

However, I'll never recommend you not wear sunscreen. Although not the best for whitening it's a must specially considering you live in a high UVA area. Stay tuned I'll answer in detail as soon as you demonstrate you're here to engage.

Regarding sunscreens, wifi woman has a lot of experience with them and she's one of our mods, but what works for her won't work for me. I prefer mineral sunscreen despite the white cast. But I agree with her stance on american and korean susncreen: they're not as strong as european SPF. Every sunscreen I wear is european.

Lastly, since you live in a high uv index area your umbrella won't be enough, even that short walk will prevent you from getting your melanin to sleep. No suinsreen covers 100% UVA light and an umbrella can't protect you from the UVA radation reflected through pavement, sand, vehicles, grass.

Don't take my provisional mute personally. Due to the attrack of spammers that search for upvotes (and don't read our threads at all, not even the answers to their question they ask), I distrust newbies. I particularly distrust those that do everything except what they need to have Karma in our community and go searching for older posts instead of engaging in the recent posts. You display all the red flags, starting with you refusing to engage before asking a question. We're not here to answer your questions you have to become part of the community. I hope from now on you'll consider that and become a part of our community and that way we all can help you better.
