I have been using it for almost 2 weeks but not every day. I have started using it twice a day and then decided to slow it down and use it once a day. I have mixed the 20% with my body lotion and that's how I used it.

At the beginning I noticed that my skin got brighter and no side effects and just to remind you guys am Kim Kardshians tone. A few days later my skin got dry and wrinkly " which is normal side effects"

TODAY: I freaked out soooo badd because I was looking too close at my skin and found WHITE very tiny dots spread all over my arms and legs. They are definitely 2-3 shades lighter than my tone and there are patches all over my body. I have been applying it purely to my very dark elbows and all I see is pink undertone with not much of lightning. My elbows gotten BAAAD, dry and a thick leathery film formed there.

I have scheduled an appointment with my Dr. late this afternoon to see what's going on but I am too scared to find out about these white dots.

Can someone tell me if they have experienced same thing... Please :(

HELLLLLLLPPPP :confused:

HELLLLLLLPPPP :confused:It's very common to have the problems you are having with the use of mono. If you don't have vitiligo you should not use mono.

Hi spotted

I got a few white spots, also it just means the product is working, it may be a bit to strong so dilute it further with your own cream of your choice

Heppy whitening

Well, I guess you can affoid using a couple of days but it might trigger the color to come back more. So I think you should just use it until it becomes white all together. Is depigged what you wanted?

Hello Everyone
Lightrrr.. on top of the white spots my skin also developed a big red circles and it was so itchy, it was only in my inner elbow joints , MY doctor said it is not serious it is just a reaction toward a cream or type of food that I am allergic to and no need to worry about, but My dr. advised me whatever new thing that I am using I have to stop it. I didn't actually tell her that I was using Mono because I didn't want to get into any troubles.

My redness is gone after I stopped using it for 2 days and now and I am back on the mono again but this time I am only using once a day and planning to use it 3 times a week and increase it gradually. I have also changed the mixture and just applied it after a thin coat of vitamin E oil. Too bad my skin is so sensitive.

If you can guys help me by tell me where can I buy the 20 % powder or a place other than monobenzone.net that sells it for cheaper price that would be greatly appreciated.

I will keep you updated...

By the way, how long it took you guys to see desired results?
Do you think 2 month of use will help in getting rid of my brown spots and uneven tone?

Hi spotted

Glad to see your back and doing well, I think what you are doing is great by reducing the amount of mono your applying daily and giving your skin some time to get use to the mono, in regards to the mono I still purchase from mon... net people and they give discounts just ask them and they sent me an email about a rewards incentive for frequent customers, I don't want to go elsewhere because I have lost so much money from the chinese suppliers, stay far far far away from them.

Happy whitening

Hi everyone,

LIghterr, I must say I LOVE my mono suppiler. I find it funny that I just wanted it and it took little searching for a supplier where others have been searching for years and still haven't found one. I find their price to not be too bad actually not bad at all compared to some others skin lighteners that claim to do somethinng and do nothing. I am trully getting results, I am like in yellow fever. Like I said its easy access and really works. I am blessed no problems at all.

Hey guys

I am glad that your happy and the products are working, its also working for me too. Like I said prior my neck and chest are high yellow and my face is finally starting to look yellow, arms are filled with patches hoping they will clear up soon, legs have repigged a bit hopefully they will clear up as my face has.

Spotted I think your doing great, what I think happened to you is the cream that the supplier had mixed may have been the cause of youur irritation its no ones fault, but what I suggest is that once you order again maybe ask them to only give you the powder alone or ask them to use a specific cream, that you use regularly to avoid further irritation.

Thanks you guys. I was talking to mon... net. And they do work with you. I think I am hooked for life.Lighterrr, what is your before color like again, I forgot? I figure once you get past the repig phases its nothing but lightening there one. SO keep you head up girls/guys! Hopefully, it will all be worth it in the long run.

Hey red

That's great, my original color was dark like hmmm let me think like naiomi campbell, and now I would say that I am like or close to being ashanti (the singers) color, my ultimate goal is to be like tyra banks color or maybe beyounce

Jul 29, 2008, 03:46 PM
Hi guys, but what's the estimated wait time for beyoncelicious? 2 months, 3 months? Right now I'm a medium brown...

What's everyone's rutine, are you guys applying twice daily? If someone would apply three times daily would the results come quicker?

You know what I notice, this mono from net is good because it didn't darken me as soon as I put it on like the chinese ladys I ordered from eBay.

RedDiamond
Jul 29, 2008, 09:08 PM
To get to where I am at it took 2 months to get any real good results. I assume it varies person to person. I know your skin will burn/tingle, lighten initially, the darken/repig, then peel, this should reveal lighter skin... then it repeated for me. NOw I am at the lightening stage.

hi guys

YEA RED, I love to hear your good news well I apply 2X daily to my entire body and 3-4 times daily on my face and neck. My face is now starting to catch up with my high yellow neck with a few dark patches close to my ear I think its because my hair kept rushing on my face and rubbed of some of the mono, so I solved that problem by braiding my hair in cornrows so its all pushed back in an effort to maximize me results, I think at this rate ill be like beonces in about 2-3 months being realistic.

Hey I think you should ease up on applying it three to four times a day on your face and neck. I mean why would you apply it even MORE times on your face, which is FAR more sensitive than your body and prone to hyperpigmentation from over-doing it?

Try twice a day, maybe even three (that's pushing it), but not four! Come on! Lol. I know you're really anxious and impatient to get your dream complexion, but this is the reason why most people's depigging quests turn into disaster--rushing things, and putting on too much of the product/cream. The time it takes is worth it. Just take your time with this... there's no rush. You'll get there--In the end it will be worth it.

I'm just trying to look out for you. Just my opinion, do what you want. :)

HI MissJ,
I put mono on it twice a day... sometimes I add like coco butter to make it smooth down and not look so bad. I can't do it a lot because I have oily skin and oil plus cocoa butter = pimples. I am starting to put lotion so it can keep it moisturized... and sunscreen in the day time. Should I try something else?

hey vicki

thank you for being the voice of reason, I was pushing it and being a little to aggressive, but like a good student I have learnt my lesson, I will only apply to my face 2X daily. So how is your mono journey coming along vicki

thanks for the tips and updates

Oh no I think you're doing just fine. Its just that I'm using vasiline intensive care with spf of 15 for lotion, I'm using sunblock on top of that when I go outside. But sikn is still pretty dry.

RedDiamond
Jul 31, 2008, 01:58 PM
YEa, I know. Its like those dry patchy areas soak up all the lotion. Its like no matter what you put on it, its still dry and scally. You know what, I was actually thinking about putting some vaseline on it but was afraid to because of my oily skin. :(. Tomorrow, I have an appoinment to go get on some accutane and hopefully, it does the ttrick. I'll let your all know how that goes.

No prob you guys, just be careful.

The mono I have, is peeling me, but I'd rather get an already made cream (I have powder mixed with lotion). So, yeah. I think it would actually work faster because they probably know better how to measure the percentage and what to add, etc.

Hey guys

My face chest and neck are high yellow I have stopped applying mono, because those areas are lightening up so fast, my back began to peel with some white spots, so I am easying up their also, only applying mono to my legs and arms right now, I am trying to live up to my new moto of taking it nice and slow.. love all your updates don't stop, as I will continue to share my experience

Im this close to crying, everyone's peeling but me. I want to peel, and my 20% still has not arrived. This delayed shipping crap is going to cost me in the long run. This was the same crap that was going on with herbal inn, only they were in the USA.
I received my first order 10 days after I placed it, and my second order I placed the next day after my first is now 14 days late and its still not here! Anyone else having this issue with monobenzone.net?

Awww, missj don't be upset. From my experience it took a week after me ordering my mono for it to get to me. Keep in mind, I live in the southern part of LouisianA. It took me like 1-2 weeks for my skin to peel. It does make you antsy like it made me. I was waiting everyday for the package to come in. Just take your time... its going to be all good.

Hello Everyone,
I am still going through the nasty stage of peeling and leathery skin ( Elbows and elbows joint). My hands became so DARK especially between my fingers!! And I don't see any sign of peeling. I hate the fact that my skin became VERY rough but I am hanging on because as they always say " beauty hurts!"

I know we suppose to turn dark a little but in my case I went from high yellow to light brown and I am still applying it just hoping to get my hands color back as it was or lighter :(... Please let me know how is't going with all of you

Also, If I would apply it to my back will it also peel?

RedDiamond
Aug 2, 2008, 04:28 PM
Yes, its very hard and fustrating to be on mono at time dealing with the skin. My scary part is I haven't be getting any results bad/good on m body at all. From what I know from others, YES everywhere you apply mono it will peel and that's a fact. Does the areas actually hurt or is it just unsightly and inconventiant? I know first hand it is to go from yellow to light brown and YOU know the difference too. I just want to tell you to be patient and take you time because if you rush it by apply more than needed it can turn out not good. If you have anymore questions just keep us on track. Hope I helped. GOOD LuCK

I think it is not worry some condition for you.
Monobenzone like thing normally may causes such white spots on skin. But it is skin care never take it light.
It is not necessorily only thing that such white spots on the skin are due to the reaction of the Monobenzone. Because I recently searched many common skin conditions which may causes white spots on skin (http://www.antivitiligo.com/vitiligo/things-like-vitiligo.html).
There in nothing to be afraid by the name of white spot skin diseases. In which are more disease are minor one like white scars due to the enjury etc.
Anyhow I thing such white spots on the skin are not so serious or dangerous thing.

Calm down,just take your time.. Dont't Stress your Body (he's already in a Chaos Battle.. ) with the negative's mood...

For your well mind,use some powder make-up to match up the tone difference of your skin.
