Korean and Japanese beauty have been influenced us that beauty is about white skin. Women who has white skin will be seen differently rather than who has darker skin. In my country, all of the beauty products contained whitening or lightening or brightening substance becoming favorite among others. But, is that all allowed in our religion? How about halal ways to make our skin whiten or brighten? Here is it some tips for you:
1. Use hijab!

I am not going to joke about this. I have a very dark skin tone in my childhood life when I haven't worn hijab. As you use hijab in your daily activities, the scarf will cover most part of your face from sunlight. It reduces the intensity of UV A and UV B light you received in daylight time. Another reason is about cloth. As you use hijab, you tend to cover all of your body with a proper cloth. It can be skirts, trousers, or other long clothes in form. It's certainly will guarantee your skin with protection that changes them into the real skin tone you have when you were children.

2. Use halal sunblock!

Sunblock can replace the power of whitening moisturizer. Because I think daily moisturizer somehow contains a little percentage of sunblock, whitening or moisturizing agent, and others. But I suggest that sunblock can be enough for you who continuously use whitening night cream in the night.

3. Use whitening night cream with halal ingredients

Night is the best time to boost our skin into elastic, white, clear, and healthy. In the night, there is no interruption when using skin care. I highly advise watching out every whitening agent inside your night cream. Mercury and particular substances may harm your skin. For that reason, the halal status is important. Something harm us is definitely not halal again.

4. Use halal make-up!

Make-up? Indeed. How can I find that? I ever used sunblock in my daily activity. But the result is really awful. My face is looked very oily and there are no such things like white healthy skin. So, I suggest you use halal makeup. Not much, perhaps a little touch of compact powder or two-way cake, and maybe a nude or pink or orange lipstick swatch to avoid pale looks. Powder, however, can make a border between sunlight to our skin. It'll help your sunblock in perfectly well combination avoiding getting darker. And also, see through the ingredients or halal label around before buying.

5. Exfoliate you skin regularly

I have several problems exist on my skin. When I exfoliate it with natural ingredients, the problem reduced, and My skin looks brighter. You may use sugar, salt, fruits juice. Other things like that will help. Not in a quick time, but may be in month. Exfoliate your skin 2-3 times in a week. You don't need to exfoliate every day. It will be bad for your skin.
That's all about my tips that I have been applied in these years. I have no such magic to make my skin whiter. All that you need is calmly enjoying your process.
