Solution

The correct option is B

Block melanin formation


Most of these products either have chlorine-based products or have ammonia in it and causes chemical changes on the skin. These chemicals change existing pigments and block the formation of melanin for a brief period. These chemical reactions are oxidising in nature and can cause allergic conditions as well.
