I used to have no hyperpigmentation at all and I used to have an even skin tone and it was like olive skin tone but after going to the beach on holidays and shit I have been darker since and I have not gotten my original lighter skin tone back, is there anything I can do to lighten my skin ?

1. Vitamin C Serum + Retinoids for your face
2. Kojic Acid soap for your face
3. There are a couple supplements that may work by increasing glutathione levels within your cell, glutathione has anti-melanin effects so it's theoretically possible these will lighten your skin. I believe they helped me be a little less darkskin. Liposomal Glutathione, Liposomal Vitamin C, GlyNAC (NAC + Glycine)
4. Using sunscreen both in your face and body is the most effective way to protect your skin and avoid getting any darker

There are other things you can do, but I highly doubt you'd want to go that route.

Which other things can I do bro ?
 
Well... skin bleaching or glutathione IV shots.
Doesn’t glutathione IV shots like not last ? Like it isn’t permanent is it ,you’d have to constantly get them

Depends. they're also bad for your liver, that's why I said you probably wouldn't want to do them. If you were lighter before and recently darkened due to taking certain stuff or being exposed in the sun for a long time, glutathione shots will lighten you, and the effect will bring you back to your natural skin tone unless you get exposed to whatever darkened you again.

But if you want to be lighter than your baseline, that's gonna take constant upkeep.

All cope except Retinoids and sunscreen, hydroquinone and mequinol is the way

Wait so taking these gluta shots can get me back to baseline original skin colour before getting exposed to a sunburn or whatever ? I might genuinely do that then cus I’ve been darker than my baseline for years.

Special emphasis on them being expensive as hell and hepatoxic. You'd be better practicing the other stuff on that list and seeing what gets you a result, I can guarantee most of it will work, but it will just take longer, but I mean you've been darker for years, so what's a few extra months?

Eh, I'm not willing to debate it, but I also won't completely agree with you. The supplements are potentially cope, they do have glutathione boosting effects, and gluta does reduce melanin, but is this systemically significant? Who knows, but why not give it a shot?

Alright, what are retinoids and what do they do ?

Also man I’ve been taking l glutathione for like two months now and not seen a change in skin colour, I take like 4 pills of them per day which are 500mg per pill so I take 2000mg a day of l glutathione in pill form should I just take more per day or what?

I did it give it a shot and they rarely work , boosting glutathione production in your body doesn't necessarily that the glutathione will take into effect , and the supplements rarely get absorbed and the glutathione boosting process using these supplements is unsure

Glutathione doesn't get absorbed

I’ve been taking glutathione in pill form and haven’t noticed any effect on skin, I also pare it with MSM

Topicals do the work brother, you need tret/adapalene and hydroquinone/mequinol+ sunscreen

Just avoid the sun. Or go with Pico Laser to lighten skin by a dermatologist

I already avoid the sun and I live in England where it’s rarely sunny and I still have this darkened skin from sun burn from years ago at the beach

it lightens skin by getting rid of areas of hyperpigmentation from the sun or what not. Also breaks down melanin. And yes its permanent
Does it hurt and how much does that normally cost ?

Also Ive heard Mixxing honey and lemon and then putting it on your skin also helps lighten your skin and reduce hyperpigmentation
