Yes it will. Skin lightening creams work by inhibiting the production of melanin in the skin. Darker-skinned people have higher concentrations of this pigment than light-skinned people. There are a few chemicals that prevent melanin production, but how safe they are is up for debate.

They may work but temporary. And then skin gets more dark or comes back to normal.
