Hello, you may consume foods rich in vitamin C. Vitamin C is a reducing agent that inhibits melanin formation and exerts a noticeable skin-lightening effect by converting already-formed melanin into colorless substances. Vitamin C is abundant in various vegetables and fruits, particularly leafy greens (e.g., Chinese cabbage, spinach), oranges, jujubes (Chinese dates), kiwifruit, tangerines, and grapefruits. I hope this information is helpful to you. Wishing you good health!
