Having a weak moment.any one going back to Bio Claire?
Is anyone as tempted as me to repurchase or restart a Bio Claire regimen because of great results in the past? Sorry Im having a weak moment but nothing else works! No results with the Crystalline as of yet...and yeh yeh yeh I know of all the dangers of BioClaire, and yeh yeh yeh I dont want to regret it in the long term, but damn that cream was so good....anyone as tempted as me? I feel like i need to join a BioClaire anonymous group...Help!
Hi Golden it seems like you are the voice of inspiration on this thread lol. What a horror story. Sorry I am just now reading about your Bio Claire experience. Anyways I've only been using the Crystalline and the Multi Action Lotion for a little over a week. But you know with some products you see results within the week? Even just a smidgen? Well no go for this one. I apply the Crystalline on my body and let it absorb for a while, then top it off with the lotion. The crystalline instructs to let it absorb before applying other creams so I am following instructions. Today I read on some pending patent or some random case study that glycerin in high amounts does help with exfoliation the epidermis or something like that. The exclusive gel is so small! Lol I need something for my whole body unfortunately, not my face as Im holding off on my face till like mid November. Is anyone using the Crystalline still with good or no results?
Luckily Bio Claire did not leave any permanent damage on me, all was removed but still. They can come out with body wash and pills for all I care, they'll sneak their steroids in anything they see fit. Just not worth it. If I knew before it was the reaction of steroids I would have never used it.
Yeah, the exclusive gel is quite small and not enough to lighten the whole body. There are some other lighteners that others are also using here with success.
Omg I feel the same way. I got amazing results with the bio claire lotion and I'm gonna purchase it again. The only thing it did to me was turn my acne scars black so if I use the kojic acid soap it might be a different outcome? I don't know guys nothings working and bio claire lotion was the ONLY thing that got me close to me desired complexion and when I say only I mean ONLY. I'm not gonna use it for long tho but guys you don't understand the attention I was receiving, people not knowing who I was it was amazing guys
I'm so sorry that happened to you Golden Girl, how horrible.
But... (and here comes the mean part) didn't you think to test it first?
Most skin care products recommend you test them on an area like you inner elbow, where you skin is most sensitive... just for 24 hours to make sure you don't have a bad reaction..
Or does Bio-Claire not have a disclaimer like that
I'm with you either way... if it has had such a bad effect on so many people they need to be shut down or at least have a giant warning label on the jars!!!
Not sure if a 24 hour patch test would have been helpful in all honesty. I don' t think any reaction with this product would have shown up so quickly. For me the skin thinning came about a few months after I started to use it,

Yeh in this case a 24 hr. patch test would have tested negative to a reaction with the actives; the reaction most people experienced came after weeks or days of continued use, once it was able to thoroughly absorb into the skin.

In the beginning I did think of doing something like a patch test before use since Bio Claire smelled quite strong. If I had done a 168 hour (7days) patch test in the same area then I probably would have just trashed it earlier. But 168 hours is quite long and I just wanted quick results. BC does something in the bloodstream, more than just topical. it's strange and should be banned so no one would feel weak again and go back to using the Bio Sh!t products. They just need to be shut down and their products burned.
No, they don't have a warning label in which they should have. But, it never lightened my upper arms anyway, only turned them vibrant red and then pitch black. I had to exfoliate so much afterwards and use makari for my arms to turn back to normal last year.
I was using diana stalder papaya kojic acid soap daily and it still did nothing for dark spots when using BC.
Bio claire worked good with me but i only used the lotion (made in cote dívoire)..
but it wasnt good with my sister it caused her strech marks and she used the lotion too.. i guess it works but not with everybody..
