Now that i'm already tanned, need help in removing it. please suggest me a better solution as read that 'hydroquinone' bleaches the skin & harmful too?

Skin: I am unsure what you are really asking. If you are tan and do not want to be, then the safest thing to do is to stay out of the sun and to let the tan fade naturally. I would advise against any harsh or medical creams to bleach the skin. Tans fade rapidly when the sun exposure stops.
