I posted that up there (about Bio Claire) to show that it does contain HQ even if it says it doesn't have it in there. Also, and that it's not so "wonderful". I've heard the this lotion/creme called Dermo White is pretty good. It DOES NOT contain HQ and its made from France. They sell it all over Brooklyn (NY) and also this website, Guesso.com. If you want more info on it (Dermo White) call the Guesso company or look it up. [I'll add a link to the lotion]. I've used Bio Claire (which contains 6% of HQ) on my face a couple of times and it irritated it and got a lot of rashes on my face...it was embarrassing. I've been using Dermaclair lotion since forever and it contains 2% of HQ and has done NOTHING to my face....it only lightening it up a little and gave me a blemish- free look. It gave me a natural look, which i love. Now, they've stopped distributing Dermaclair Beauty lotion in the U.S so I'm going to try the Dermo White, which I've heard its pretty good. I just want to maintain my complextion...not get any lighter...
Many of these products are the same basic contents from a manufacturer in Africa. There is a list of most of them posted somewhere.
Basically everything you order from guesso or texasbeautysupply or buy in the beauty shops, 99% is the same gel, cream or lotion tinted, fragrances, in different brand bottles, most of them around 500ml.
Rosance had a similar warning a couple years ago, because many batches were found to have 12% hydroquinone. Twelve.
