Thanks for the query.
It's a good idea to do a test peel before applying on the whole face. Usually 48hrs is time for observation but better to wait for a week.
Skin already tanned can be treated with depigmenting creams.
A good skin care regimen comprises 4 steps - cleansing, toning, moisturizing and sunblock.
Based on your skin type, a dermatologist will recommend you appropriate products
