Sorry to hear about your experience. It seems like bio claire is becoming more notorious of doing that more often. I definately believe there is something out there that can safely help you reach your goals and maintain. If your interested in the makeup route then, I read there are ppl who use air brush makeup like Luminess and others to look lighter on their face as it looks natural. Maybe you could check out the mall and see who is selling it and can give you a free treatment since it is makeup?

hi sorry to hear about that the same happend to me with some cheap bleaching cream i purchased from my local beauty mart.but i have heard that using these sort of products on softer sensitive skin will leave it more prone to burn or itch..i just purchased sum bio claire today and now i'm second guessing on it.i guess i will try a small patch test 1st.but i believe you should keep your skin very very moisterized.when this happend to me .... I kno its pretty weird but i kept globs of vitamin a&d ointment on the area that was burned and really dry it helped my pain and healed it pretty quick.hope all gets well with you.

Luminess Air is a type of airbrush makeup kit. Airbrush cosmetics are supposed to last longer and look more natural, covering imperfections compared to the older brands of makeup.

Having a professional who specializes in airbrushing will be able to give you tips on what you want for your desired look and what specific color for you in order to make it look natural. They may even give you a free trial there at the mall. Better that than buying the product first as it can be costly. I had trouble finding articles about how to make the skin appear lighter. I heard of having it done by a professional may last up to about 10 days, but I'm not sure if this is a different type or something. I intend to use airbrushing after I have acheived my goal complexion and able to maintain. Because if you just lighten the body and not the face, it may not look right once the makeup is washed off. And it takes longer to lighten the body compared to the face. So when you find a skin lightening product that does work for you, it'll most likely work faster on your face and then on your body because the body's skin is thicker.
