Hi
I am a 20 year old asian (indian) male. My skin colour is of an average asian guy, however I want to lighten my skin by a number of shades and want to do this permanently.

I have tried products such as fair and lovely for men. Bio claire but all these have made me darker after a while.

I have heard of Monobenzone and Benzylarbutin.

However due to lack of knowledge and understanding of what is best for me I would like your advice on how to achieve my look and how? And what are the risks involved?

Thank you very much.

I would avoid Benzyl Arbutin because it doesn't work for complete depig. I used it for 1.5 months at 60 bucks for a 4oz bottle, which only lasted a week. So it was 60 dollars a week. Also the only company which claimed the product exsists is herbal inn.
No one else has ever heard of it and they don't carry it. The other companies did carry Arbutin, either alpha or beta. Even these chemical derivatives come at astronomical prices, I believe one price quote was 500 bucks for 1 oz of Beta Arbutin. Which isn't even as good as Alpha Arbutin.

Since you are already light, just go to monobenzone. You will probably have good results and will not have to worry so much about repig because you're already light enough.

You stated in one of your earlier posts that you have been using BA for 1.5 months with great results, and you only posted that 4 or 5 days ago. So it can't possibly be that you have been using BA for 3 months. Saying BA is working great for you then a few days later telling someone that you used it for 3 months and saw no results. Your contradicting yourself.

Be careful with mono, it's only for people with vitiligo. A friend of mine used it for well over a year with good results then his skin repigged with one side of his face looking hiedious and he was asian as well.

Looks like someone edited there post lol

[indianguy123]

OK, so I if mono is for people with viltigo.

Does this mean I can use it or would you recommend not using it at all?

Is there any other way of lightening the skin permanently?

Thank you for all your replies to date.

Hey

As far I know the only permanent depigmentation agent on the market is mono, it turns your skin white

I take flax seed oil and glucosamine tablets for the joints. I also take creatine to help my performance in the gym and a whey protein supplement.

^That's great but this is the skin lightening section lol.

And for body building, don't you guys have to have tan, dark skin that's oiled down anyway? Lol

I use a tanning lotion on the day of the competition, so do the other competitors. The tan makes the little detail in the physique show more on stage.

Hi branco,

So why the interest in skin whitening and mono, are you planning on using it soon

Hi, I'm also Asian and I found this online store in the Philippines. I am in Ca but they were able to ship to me. I ordered several items though, like kojic soap, kojic cream and kojic lotion. So far I as well as others have noticed that I have fairer skin.

On top of that, I minimize sun exposure. But if I really have to, I use hats and umbrellas. Oh and the derma advised me to wear sunblock all the time even when I'm indoors or even when it's cloudy outside.

Btw, the wesite is: www. Asianskincare.wetpaint.com.

Hope that helped you somehow!

I would go with monobenzone 5% for your skin color

[Bilal_Ali]

indianguy123 for you I think Branco give best suggestion for you.
If you are not suffering from skin condition Vitiligo then not use monobenzone.
You might use as well some home remedies like lemon juice with glycerin for skin lightening.

[mcgm802820]

absolutkaos, are u using mono ? Do u think 5% will do ? Thanks.

[Bilal_Ali]

Don't use Monobenzone and Benzylarbutin for lightening of skin if you not have skin condition Vitiligo
