What is Hydroquinone?

Hydroquinone is a chemical used incardboards, photography and bleaching products such as hair bleaching products. It causes redness of the skin (have you ever experienced the burning sensation and itchiness of skin when walking under direct sunlight?) and skin peeling (most users have mistaken this by skin rejuvenation, which is WRONG).
Without realizing this problem, long term of usage may cause skin cancer as the skin melanin thins out making the skin unprotected from the harmful UV rays.
And stopping of usage will cause skin to be thick, uneven skin-tone and dark-patches.
