well, I’ve never heard of goat milk soap, but you can try applying sunscreen everyday. You should do that anyway. Try a moisturizer with SPF of 15 or 30. SPF 30 would be better if you’re out in the sun for more than 3 hours a day.
Next, you can try some topical lighteners such as Ultraglow. It should be available at walmart.
For a cheap, at-home method, you can try lemon juice. If you have dry skin, try honey and lemon as a mask…about 1/4 of a lemon, squeezed and however much honey to cover your face thinly. Leave it on for about 10-15 minutes and wash off. If you have oily skin, try pureed cucumber and 1/4 of a lemon, squeezed. (both of these masks are at night after you’ve cleansed your face.) After you’ve done the mask, proceed with your nightly routine (eye cream and moisturizer. If you use toner, make sure it is alcohol free!!!)
If you are out of these products then just use a little bit of cold water and about 8-10 drops of lemon juice. Have the water cupped in your hand, squeeze the lemon for 8-10 drops, and then pat it on your face. Use this in place of your toner (toner is before the eye cream and moisturizer. let dry before you put on the cream and moisturizer.) This method will take longer than the masks….and the masks will take longer than over the counter stuff.
****do not use these masks and the lemon juice toner in the morning. use it at night!!! Lemon juice will farther darken your skin if you let sunlight hit it (don’t know why…trust, personal experience).

I’m actually looking for the same thing. Ive done some research on Ambi skin lighteners, which Rihanna uses and it works also i found several other brands but I already ordered two 2oz. tubes from Walgreen’s and they should be coming Monday so I ll keep you posted if it works. You can find Ambi at Walgreen’s or CVS for about 5 dollars. And I have heard of goat’s milk working for lightning skin.

Believe it or not….Start by rubbing the skin of an orange or lemon or any citrus fruit. Take the skin and squeeze the oil out of it and then rub on your face. You will notice a big difference in the color of your skin. You can also do a baking powder scrub on your face by taking a spoonful of baking soda and water and scrubbing your face with it. You will be amazed.
I hope you like this solution.
