Live skin cream has mometasone as one of it's constituents. Mometasone is a steroid and it's not desirable to apply steroids because it has innumerable side effects. It may weaken your skin or cause infections over long term. This cream is usually prescribed for getting rid of dark circles.
I would recommend you to tone down your aspiration for permanent brighter skin. I advice my patients that the hype of brighter skin is more of an industry created hype and ask them to be proud of their skin colour. If you are still persistent, then you can contact your dermatologist and ask for non-steroid containing creams.
Hope the above information helps you. Thanks.
