Hello dear,
Welcome to healthcaremagic.

Skinlite is a combination cream with steroid as one of the component. It definitely initially gives a good feel of getting fairer but if used for prolonged and undue duration, makes the skin addicted to it. Then on stopping it, there is flare up of the previous condition.
So,i personally do not advice my patients to use it at all.

You can apply other depigmenting creams with safer composition like those containing koijic acid, viatmin C, arbutin etc.

I hope it helps.
