Yes, it's still effective in whitening, but I suggest using a lotion containing milk. I've been using a baby milk lotion for a long time, and it feels good, but I have to stick to it, but it works better in winter, and the skin is oily in summer, so I use it less, and the baby's things are delicate, so it's good for our skin. Of course, this is my feeling, and I hope it can help you, but everyone's skin is different, depending on people.
