All these shades of Monobenzone?

Guys,

I think i might have found an authentic monobenzone powder seller in India but he has quoted me for 3 different shades of monobenzone powder (and different prices) and i don't know which of the 3 to buy:

1. (99%) Pale-brown powder
2. (99%) Light yellow-brown powder
3. (99.5%) Off-white powder.

In older posts by lovie1 (i think that was her username) she said there was also pure-white powder, or was she just referring to the off-white as pure-white?)

As far as I know 99.5% is as pure as it comes?

Let me know guys before I order.

Thanks
A

Mequinol seems to possibly be promising. It is known to be milder than mono but stronger than Hq, so I'm still trying to read as much as I can about this.

you mean for the mequinol? That's what I heard, but there has to be somewhere that sells the real thing without prescription I hope?

i think you can buy menoquil online without a doctor perscription, but you only apply it on the area you want to lighten so if your spotted from mono like me you would have to apply to the dark areas only and not to the entire skin surface. Menoquil aka solage is only suppose to me used to fade age and liver spots and once the area is faded your suppose to discontinue usage.

Menoquil is something different than what I was mentioning. Menoquil is for older women with menopause who are suffering from hot flashes, mood swings, night sweats, and lack of libido.
The one I'm mentioning is mequinol aka Solage Mequinol/Tretinoin Facts and Comparisons at Drugs.com, Solage (Mequinol and Tretinoin) Drug Information: Uses, Side Effects, Drug Interactions and Warnings at RxList

Mepk please let me know what your doctor states about the use of this product and how it affects the skin..

It's recommened you can use Mequinol 2% (depigmentation agent) & Tretinoin 0.01% (topical retinoid) to help lighten the skin. But, I don't know if it gradually lightens or completely depigments the skin like mono?

Thanks Chandani. Do you think the sites are genuine and sell authentic mequinone? What are you currently using?

Sorry I took so long, but I was jumping through hoops just to get a couple of pots of mono! I can't put out the info completely. I can tell you more if you pm me. I can tell you that it's a compound which means it can be easily combined with creams and oil. I've been combining mono with avon anew alternative (a thin layer of that, then a thin layer of mono). it stings like 15-20% glyco but damn if it doesn't do the job. The spots are there on my leg but they aren't obvious unless you point them out. The area I'm lightening has lightened 2 solid shades and that is in 2 months. The crusting has dimnished and I keep the area moisturised with anew and bio-oil to cut down on that. I'm pretty satisfied with the results and I plan on ordering from them again. The one thing I can tell you is that mono/beno is on a substance watch list in north america since 2005 so if you do buy the tube from india especially check the expiry date on the crinkle part.
