Lancome whitening essence is quite good. If you don't like it, you can try HABA UV White Lotion, but HABA is effective at the first few times. Besides, you are recommended to apply sun block every day, or the products cannot maximize the whitening effect.
Lancome is good. I used the spot corrector last year during the promotion. This year, I bought some sets (including the new whitening mask and the wipe off lotion) in good price.
I usually buy them in Lancome counter (Sogo and LaneCrowd at Times Square). I bought one set with 4 whitening masks + 4 bottles of wipe off lotion (around $320), another starter set with many smaller sizes of spot corrector, hydrating milk, No. 2 whitening lotion, 1 whitening mask (also around $320).
I also bought the "4 whitening masks + 4 bottles of wipe off lotion (around $320)" and "Spot corrector (around $560)" and "Hydrating milk (around $490) at Sogo's Lancome counter last night.
