Does coconut and papaya soap lighten your skin?

no

Of course! Papaya contains the enzyme papain which is responsible for the skin whitening effect of papaya-based costetics.

Papain helps in exfoliating dead skin cells, thereby hastening the cell turnover of the skin. As dead skin cells are exfoliated faster, newer cells are produced. The result is a lighter complexion. That is, the skin tone that you are born with.

Since papaya is an exfoliant, most soaps contain other skin whitening agents such as kojic acid and vit.c to be more effective.

I assume you heard the rumor that papaya can make you abort. That apparently is in very large amounts and ripe or unripe. I've read different things online and so far found nothing to back it up. Either way can you safely eat a normal amount of any fruit when pregnant. Fruit is healthy. Just be careful if you are in the risk of pregnancy diabetes. Fruit is sugar too.
