Can I safely apply hydroquinone on my lips for a short period? Also, could you recommend a good Vitamin C cream, gel, or serum for my skin?
It is generally not recommended to use hydroquinone on the lips, as the skin there is very delicate and may get easily irritated. For Vitamin C, a serum or gel containing 10 to 20 percent L-ascorbic acid works well, or you can ask a dermatologist to recommend a formulation suited to your skin type.
