    my dad is half white and half hispanic,my mom is full hispanic,both got dark eyes and dark hair,but some stupid genetic reason i got my dad's grand father's ginger hair and platinum grey eyes which looks so freaky on my olive skin,i dye my hair in brown color still can't get rid of orange tone.
    so i want to have very pale skin to match with my ginger hair.
    Maybe its just me, but strange features have makings of a model written all over them ;) sounds like you're the way most of us dream of looking lol... I have always wanted something really strange and interesting and rare... Diamonds are valuable because they are rare... :D

    Its human nature that we want to have what we don't have!
    My Swedish blond friend is taking tanning injections and tanning pills to make her skin permanently dark.
    It is so easy to make anybody's skin dark but it is so hard to make skin permanently white.

    Dolice.. No its not true!

    You are however, BOUND TO GET PATCH WHILE LIGHTENING with mono.

    If you take proper precautions and continue, you will succeed!

    Lots of people have succeeded at it . Why not you ?

    I have read that occasionaly you may get small patches but they fade away too with mono... there isn't really any sound "truth" about what a persons skin will do so its all trial and error... however I do think that after a few months whatever is happening to your skin now may go away and not be permanent... no matter what mama, good luck to you. You'll find something that works out right and just keep us posted:o

    Well, this is very strange. If I were you, I would seriously get the stuff tested before I continued to use it. Unless it is from a real pharmacy, you can never be too sure of what you are getting. Why don't you just invest in a really good makeup to cover this when you go out? From personal experience, it took me two months to get to the color I wanted. I only did my neck. I got patches, but they were hard to notice on my already pale skin. I was using real mono.

    Let me get this straight. The lighter areas in the second picture are your original color, but the darker parts are from using mono? Is that right? That is usual. Mono is supposed to give you white patches, not dark ones. If you do get it tested, and it comes back legit, then don't quit using it. If you really want pale skin, you will get there eventually.

    Yes monobenzone made my skin darker than my real color then gave me brown and white patches!

    I want to have phenol peel,which depigs skin completely, but I am surprised to find out that nobody performs this peel in London anymore.
    Some clinics do perform TCA,GLYCOLIC,and OBAGI,but none of them perform phenol peel,I have done all research I couldn't find any practitioner who does phenol peel.
    I might have to go USA!

    Phenol peels are for people with wrinkles, freckles or bad acne. You appear to have nice, normal young skin, do not do phenol. It is too drastic. Just keep using the mono. When you say you are Hispanic, do you mean you are of Spanish descent? Or are you mixed with some kind of non white ethnicity? The reason I ask is because when someone says Hispanic in America, they are usually referring to a brown person of South American descent, not a white Spaniard from Spain. You have to be patient with skin whitening. When I was doing mine, it took two months, and I thought it wasn't working, but then right at the two month mark, I noticed the difference.
