Q.
Dear Skin Care Counselor,
 Will
any of your products lighten the skin in the bikini/groin area? I am looking for
something that may work fast, as I am planning a beach vacation very shortly.
This looks just like the dark areas I used to
have in my underarms years ago, but that is no longer a problem.
Please
advise.

Dear Donna,
To achieve a lighter, more even
skin color on your bikini line and areas between your thighs, we recommend you
follow the steps below:
 1.
Wash affected area with
Godiva Licorice Whitening Soap.
 2.
Apply
Godiva Licorice Whitening Lotion on these
areas. Let dry thoroughly before dressing up.
3. Do these steps two
times daily.
Do take note, however, that
lightening depends on and varies according to the individual skin tone and
coloration.
Also, you would have to stop
using other skin care brands 2 to 3 days before using
Godiva Natural Skin Care products to
achieve maximum results.
Yours truly,
Skin Care Counselor

The Truth about Tanning
 If
you're fair and love to tan your skin, beware. The bronzed tan you admire and
desire to have is actually a sign of skin damage from too much
UV rays.
Melanin
protects your skin against UV radiation and the
lighter your skin, the less melanin it can gather to protect you. That's why if
you have extremely light skin, especially if you're a redhead or a blonde,
REMEMBER that you may not make enough melanin to
tan.
Moreover,
if you do tan, keep in mind that no tan is safe. No matter how readily your melanin cells rush to
your aid, you are still exposing your skin to harmful UV -- the damage,
unfortunately, accumulates over time.
 To
protect your skin from the harmful UV rays, make it a daily habit to use
Godiva Green Tea Sunblock Cream SPF 25+ PA+++.
Apply the
sunblock daily over the face, neck and arms with gentle circular motion until
the cream vanishes into a matte finish. Let dry for 30 minutes before sun
exposure. A single application is sufficient for all-day protection. However,
you must reapply if the sunblock
is wiped off.
 And
after spending some time under the sun, moisturize your skin with
Godiva Squalane After-Sun Lotion. It
helps repair the visible and invisible effects of extended sun exposure.
