I haven't started to bleach yet, but I just want to know what to expect when I first do it?

I know everyone's skin is different. But what happened when you first tried it?

I'm going to be using Retin A then 4% HQ.

Doesn't HQ make your skin sensitive to the sun and cause skin cancer if you get too much exposure?

My skin peeled a lot at first. Started with the strongest strength 0.1%. My face got so red. It was horrible but then again I was using it three times a day with hq. Now I have stopped. Using the HQ three times a day with fair and white serum and retina a every other day. My face is still red. The good thing is you will lighten a lot so the horrible peeling period is worth it. Hq does make your skin sensitive to the sun so make sure you wear sunscreen every time you go out to protect Ur skin from the sun rays and so that you don't get darker.

Does the Retin A hurt or burn?

I'm only going to use the HQ 2x a day and the Retin A 1x a day or every other day.

Both will make you peel a little... retin A burns the most first ten days or so... but it really does get better,. trust me it does.. LOL...
