Actifade™ Review
Does ActiFade work? While ActiFade is a popular skin lightening product, it may in fact be dangerous as its primary ingredient is Hydroquinone, which has been linked to the development of cancer and has been banned throughout the world.
While Hydroquinone can help lighten the skin, it may be detrimental to one’s health which is why our review staff prefers to endorse products which have independent, clinical evidence and that do not use Hydroquinone in their formula. While our staff advises readers to avoid skin lighteners that contain this highly controversial ingredient, ActiFade is available for purchase at a variety of retail chains such as CVS.
However, if you are looking for a safer, yet still powerful skin lightening product, click on the banner located at the bottom of this page to see a review of topical skin lightening product options. Again, our review staff strongly advises consumers from using topical skin lighteners such as ActiFade which rely on Hydroquinone as their primary ingredient.
Drawbacks of ActiFade
- Contains a 1.5% concentration of Hydroquinone
- No independent, clinical evidence to support claims
