Hi, I am a goth and have always been a little jealous of others in my subculture who have the flawless, very pale skin (without makeup) all over their whole body.  Are there any natural remedies that I can try at home to lighten my skin a few shades?  Ive been trying to find some online and have come across several, but I need help separating things that will work and things that could potentially be harmful.  Some of them were lemon juice and papaya masks.  Could you help me please?
