Hello,
Vitamin C is important for the collagen synthesis and it will improve the health of the skin. It will not lighten the skin.
You can continue celin or other brands.
Include more fruits and vegetables in your diet especially citrus fruits.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
