If you're plagued with skin pigmentation problems, look to your refrigerator and kitchen spice rack before spending a small fortune on cosmetic products that fail to deliver their promises. We're dealing with a very simple, straightforward fact here. Natural ingredients, freshly formulated, simply work better than the products offered by the beauty industry, and they're a whole lot cheaper.

Acne scars, melasma, freckles, hyper pigmentation, skin discoloration, and a multitude of skin pigmentation problems are effectively dealt with through the use of everyday natural ingredients readily available at the local supermarket. And why not? The natural ingredients found there are the same ones used by the cosmetic industry in formulating their overpriced and marginally effective products.

An important factor ever present in a commercially produced skin whitening product is the ever present danger that the vital ingredients used to formulate it have outlived their useful life by the time they are placed in the buyer's hands. The ingredients used are delicate with a short shelf life which added preservatives do little to counter.

Dermatologists aren't necessarily helpful. Stories about negative outcomes from prescription products are rampant. Such formulas initially seem to be helping and the patient is encouraged by the results. But much too often, the good results initially achieved have a way of reversing themselves, leaving the patient worse off than before. Many products used in the U.S. are classified as a health hazard in European and South American countries. Skin lightening surgery is risky and can end up causing more black spots to appear than the patient had before.

Another hazard are the unknown effects of some of the synthetic ingredients the cosmetic industry is so prone to include in their products. Fetal malformations have regularly found their roots in the commercial skin whitening products women used while pregnant.

As a result of this confusion, many with skin discoloration issues have thrown up their hands and resorted to cosmetic coverup.or, if they're well heeled enough, to Cosmetic Laser Therapy. For those who can afford it. Cosmetic Laser Therapy can be a very welcome option in the treatment of skin discoloration issues. But on the other hand, aside from its cost, the therapy is not without its side effects and should be looked at very carefully by anyone considering this option. And the clinics providing this service are rarely forthcoming with the possible negatives of Cosmetic Laser Therapy.

Anyone searching for a solution to this dilemma doesn't need to look any further than kitchen or local supermarket. The same inexpensive natural ingredients used by the beauty industry are resting there in full view of anyone knowing how to use them. Natural ingredients which remove brown spots and whiten skin are readily available on supermarket shelves. Troubling brown spots on the skin can be quickly and easily removed with these natural skin whitening ingredients. Fruits, vegetables and certain animal products are rich in the antioxidants and other skin whitening ingredients so liberally utilized by the cosmetic industry. Processing and formulating them for individual use is far from rocket science.

Commercially formulated skin whitening products universally carry with them the inherent danger of triggering allergies. Anyone making his own skin whitening formulas from natural ingredients purchased from the market automatically avoids all allergic reactions by simply not using the ingredients that produce them. There are plenty of substitutions that work; one as well as another. Skin whitening formula made this way is always fresh with its curative properties available full force; something the commercial products cannot claim. By making skin whitening formulas with fresh, natural ingredients, allergic reactions are eliminated, expense is kept to a bare minimum, and the skin nurturing properties of fresh, natural ingredients are raised to their fullest potential, offering their user beautiful, radiant skin that no commercially produced product can equal.
