Brief Answer:
Glutathione

Detailed Answer:
Hello
Thanks for the query.
Dark complexion is genetically determined.
Creams won't be effective for you as you cannot apply cream all over body.
Glutathione tablets are widely used now as fairness agent.
I don't think these tablets are freely available without prescription.
Please meet a dermatologist and discuss regarding this.
Use a sunscreen with 50 spf daily.
Let me know if you have any other doubt.
Thank you
