It's natural and I haven't seen any side effects yet, and by the grace of God I won't see any. I would say if you use it twice a day with Ambi complexion cleansing soap you'll get 1/4 to half a shade lighter every one or two days. use a very good sunblock and stay the hell out of the sun. Don't mind these people judging you. Do what makes you feel happy! Hope this helps!

Hey brown. I brought a product that sounds similar to that. Its called 55H+ efficacite extreme. It also says its from paris. I brought it at the beauty supply store for like 12 bucks and I've been scared as hell to use it. It smells like it has hydroquinone in it but it doesn't say it in the ingredients. The ingredients actually seem like they are natural like : citrus limonum, glycyrrhiza glarbra, sambucus nigra, even ascorbic acid... and so forth. The box says, recommended in health stores and dermtologist practises. I'm wondering if it's the same product... hmm...

I don't know how to describe the smell but if you ever used those ambi products it smells like that but stronger. Hydroquione also turns brown and when I only used the 55H to spot test and after a couple days opening had dry cream that was brown. I also THINK that companies like to put hydroquione products in those tin aluminum tubes that are hard to squeeze out at the end. I don't know...

I'm not using a cream... It's a Glycerin based serum.

Yea, I seen it a website. It sounds very promising. The 55H that I purchased from the beauty supply doesn't even have any of the ingredients you mentioned yours had. I don't trust the one I've purchased, I'm also a bit weary on how cheap it was. I'm going to try the one you have mentioned. Thanks,best of luck to you, keep us updated on your progress.
