Hi, Thanks for using HCM.
Skinlite conatins tretinoin ,mometasone and hydroquinone and it give good result in pigmentation disease. But you should not use this as fairness cream as it has serious side effect like thinning ,bleeding as your cousin due to its steroid component.
Instead you wash with mild soap for 3 - 4 times a day with cool water and apply sunscreen lotion 5 min before going to sun. Avoid sun exposure. Daily head wash. This will help you in couple of weeks..
Hope I answered your question. Consult your doctor for further examination and management. Feel free to ask me if you have any further queries. Wish you good health. Take care.
Regards
