I'm a mom to a 10-month-old baby boy, and I've noticed his skin is quite dark. I'm really hoping to enhance his skin tone. Could you share some safe skin whitening tips for babies? I'm worried about any potential side effects these might have, and I'm curious if the changes would be permanent. Just want to make sure it's safe for my little one.
