I've been using Myfair cream on my face for the past two weeks, and it seems to be making my skin glow. I havent noticed any side effects so far. Should I keep using it, or would you advise otherwise?

It is not recommended to use Myfair cream for face glowing as it contains hydroquinone which can have potential side effects in the long term such as skin irritation, redness, and thinning of the skin. Instead, you can switch to a safer alternative like Kojic acid cream or Vitamin C serum for a more natural and gentle approach to achieve glowing skin. Apply a pea-sized amount of Kojic acid cream or Vitamin C serum on your face once daily in the evening for best results.
