hi ..I AM 23 YEAR OLD GIRL..TILL 1 YEAR BACK I USED TO HAVE A VERY DARK WHEATISH BROWN COMPLEXION...I APPLIED COSMELITE FOR 5 MONTHS(DAILY) ALONG WITH FAIRNESS CHEMICAL PEELINGS (ONCE IN A MONTH) AND MY COMPLEXION BECAME DRASTICALLY FAIRER..I GAINED CONFIDENCE AND MY LIFE CHANGED SUDDENLY ...I WAS VERY HAPPY BUT THEN I CAME TO KNOW THAT COSMELITE IS NOT SAFE TO USE FOR LONG PERIOD...I STOPPED USING IT BUT THEN AFTER A MONTH OR TWO MY COMPLEXION AGAIN BECAME BLACKISH DARK GRADUALLY AND MY SKIN LOST ITS CHARM...I STARTED LOSING IT AGAIN IN MY LIFE ...SO EVEN KNOWING ITS ILL EFFECTS ,I HAVE AGAIN STARTED APPLYING THE CREAM AT ON AND OFF BASIS(2-3 TIMES A WEEK) NOW...I CAN SEE THE WONDERS WHENEVER I APPLY THE CREAM ..AND THE FAIRNESS EFFECT LASTS FOR 2-3 DAYS..
.I AM NOT AS FAIRER AS THAT TIME WHEN I APPLIED THE CREAM CONTINUOUSLY FOR 5 MONTHS DAILY...BUT NOW I HAVE GOT A DECENT COMPLEXION SINCE I HAVE BEEN APPLYING THE CREAM 2-3 TIMES A WEEK. IT KEEPS ME HAPPY AND SATISFIED....

Dermatologist 's  Response
Hi i think cosmolite should not be used for long time as i contains steriods which causes thinning of skin causing photodemage and formation of wrinkles.in earlier days skin looks brighter if u apply it but on long time usage it has several side effects.cosmolite is used only for pathological conditions like melasma and post inflammatory hyperpigmentation but not for fairness of skin
