Depends on your budget, but ask the person in the shop for item and ask specifically for BIHAKU. Bihaku means whitening. (Uruoi is moisturizing.) It looks like this: 美白 (Beautiful + white)

You can get whitening sheet masks, lotions, creams, gels, etc.

For reviews, I'd suggest a website like http://www.ratzillacosme.com/ or youtube asian beauty reviewers like Melody Morishita (she uses a lot of whitening products) or Wengie. Wengie uses mostly Korean products but those are popular in Japan these days. Other reviewers like Bubz Beauty tend to use a variety of products from many countries.

There's also the cosmetic rankings at @cosme -- http://www.cosme.net/ -- if you run through an online translator you can get the idea about which items have been best selling. There are also several @cosme stores in Tokyo, one of which is in a department store in Ginza, I think it's the one with the french name.

It really, really helps to go with a list because the choices can be overwhelming. But the store staff are helpful too!

Thank you so much MN I have actually given up on anyone to reply on my question after so long.
