I also know people that their skin 'takes' to bleaching more than others especially if they have 'fair' genes in their family. I know a friend whose parents and siblings are as fair as MonaLisa; she's the only dark-skinned one. She started lightening her skin with Visible Difference + Baby lotion and over a period of time succeeded in looking like the rest of her family. Does that didn't know her before could never be convinced that 'she dey rub cream' but she knew, I knew and her siblings knew.
