Ok this thread is for all people using safe and natural products who are willing to keep the board members updated with their results. If you use Bio Claire or anything that contains hydroquinone, mercury, or any other harmful ingredients, this thread is NOT FOR YOU! If your are using a product and you are unsure about the ingredients, post the ingredients here and I along with other concerned members will do research on the ingredients. People are tired of using products that are puting their health at risk unknowingly (amazingly some dont even care, they just want to be white/lighter) and today we are going to end this!

After my sitaution with Bio Claire I decided to go natural and I'm glad I did!
Starting Monday I will be using gluta-blend soap (a soap that is blended with kojic acid, glutathione, and rosehip oil. It is also good at exfoliating and micropeeling) and istant skin whitening effect lotion ( a lotion that contain high dosage of kojic acid and glutathion aswell as rosehip oil and other safe ingredients) and will update you on my progress. I was kinda concerned about the high dosage of kojic acid in the lotion but I searched for reviews on the product and users have seeing amazing results. Although the results were not instant ( 1 1/2 weeks before they seen results) they seen amazing results. And the bottles last 3 weeks if used all over. ITs actually the bet seller on the amira website I orderd from and I must say the amira website is amazing because it only sells natural safe products! Goggle amira majic for the website.


So feel free to post ingredients that your unsure about or comment/review on safe products you are using or have used.

HAVE FUN AND BE SAFE! JOIN THE NATURAL MOVEMENT!

LOL!!

I just knew it couldn't be true.
I would not have a dermatologist or esthetician tell me they are going to apply
a stronger peel simply because my skin is darker.

I know what my skin can and cannot take when it comes to peels because I
have been doing them myself right at home.

Ok I think I'm going to try something different! What I'm using now is good but I need something stronger so I'm getting kojic acid lotion from funkymommy.net and the alpha arbutin powder from skinactives.com. I'm going to mix the powder and the lotion and hopefully it will make the lotion stronger. I've read some good results on both of the products (there both safe) and I think combined they will a good skin lightening solution!

gorgeouslady

weezing let's know how the alpha arbuting powder works in your mixture.i would like to try it too.thanks

PINKFASCINATION

it is tougher because it visibly does not age like other skin. Everyone with eyeballs can see that. Yes when there is a mixture like im (26% european) the skin is sensitive and not as thick but hey i dont have time to argue i got better things to do with my time.you wanna win you win.

weezing

Can someone please explain this to me lol

Not getting any argument from me, your just simply wrong in your statement
that darker skin is "tougher" than lighter skin.

"Dark skin is a blessing as it relates to sun damage and aging,
a 50-year-old woman of color often looks 40, while a white woman of the same age might look 10 years older than her real age." says Susan C. Taylor, M.D., director of the Skin of Color Center in New York and author of Brown Skin: Dr. Susan Taylor's Prescription for Flawless Skin, Hair and Nails (HarperCollins, 2003).


The reason darker skin ages well is because of the melanin in the skin not
because of it's "toughness".

Nikki is there any one particular product you are a fan of? I was reading your posts and it seems like you liked Fair & Flawless but I had a friend try it and she said it doesn't work and is too expensive is there anything else you recommend?

nikkicute

Yes I do favor Fair and Flawless as the best natural product for skin lightening
that I have used, I don't think the price (of the facial cream) is not that bad
and you can't always go by what your friend or others have said about a
product, what may not work for your friend may just be perfect for you.

Before Fair and Flawless I used Hydroquinone products and I still have no
problem with those. I think Fair and Flawless was the first natural skin lightener I used.

But I do like to try others, Diana Stalder worked for me, African Queen worked, Hollywood Secret Cream worked ect.. Most skin lightening products
work for me except for two of them, one I tried to make myself and another
one I bought called Skin Bleach by The Spa Basin but this cream looked
just like the homemade cream I tried to make, you can see bits of the powder
in the cream, it did not dissolve well, that's probably why it did not work for
me.

One cream I have always wanted to try is Godiva Skin Lightening Cream. I've
known about this product for years but have not tried it yet, I heard it works
best on asian skin but I still wanted to see for myself because they do have a
couple of testimonials on their site who are not asian posting it worked for them.
