Hey guys I have just bought a skin lightener named Porcelana, it fades discolorations. I heard it works real well, it had 2% hydroquinone in it. Has anyone tried it before?

No but just as a precaution discuss it with your doctor. I am not thrilled about what I just read about it . Do not use it near eyes nose or mouth ;any place where you risk ingestion . Wash your hands after use. Do not use it near any open sore and don't use it on sunburn .

Studies have shown it may be a carcinogin.The FDA is considering banning over the counter sales of it. Many of the European nations have already banned it's use.

Do NOT use anything with hydroquinone in it... has been found to be carcinogenic (cancer causing).
