Thanks Brown skin. Looking forward to the PM.;)

Do you know what kinda risk is associated with AA?? I think the lower the %, the less risk with any substance although, I haven't read about any side-effects with AA...

And you said AA depig like mono, does that mean there's the risk of getting totally white (as MJ) in high %??:eek:
When you read about alpha-arbutin, it never mention anything about depiging, I'm sure I read that it does depig. See if you can find more information on it and get back to me:D

Yeah, I did read that it depigs but I also read that it doesn't depig like mono. Results from mono is irreversible meaning if you happen to get too white, there's not much you can do about it.

With AA, you can still tan naturally if you so wish... there's also far less risk of being disfigured... I've also read that at low %, it will only lighten your skin and not depig...

While researching AA, I've come across a lot of big legitimate companies selling products containing AA from the USA, UK, Western Europe etc... Also it is patented in Germany... As far as I know mono is not widely available even at low %.

I'm from the UK, and I know that here, it's not easy to get skin care products if it carries any risk (eg hydroquinone).

Germany is another country where it's impossible to get products with even minimal risk; so if AA is patented in Germany; that means it's considered quite safe.

Again, despite all the research, I'd recommend people to use it at low % and not jump straight to 20%.

doctors prescribe mono for people with vitiligo, are you sure about it causing cancer?
I not tryying to be RUDE:rolleyes: or anything but you must have knowledge about the composition of structural molecules, there reactivity with one another and there interaction with the human body inorder to know what I'm talking about.
I break it down in the other passage. CAREFULLY READ IT :D
It become more of a risk for cancer when using it ina HIGH PERCENTAGE (ex.10%>or maybe even less than this)
YES DOCTORS DO PRESCRIBE MONO BUT NOT AT HIGH PERCENTAGE /HIGH RISK CANCEROUS LEVELS

hi brown skin, so what your professor said about using mono on healthy skin? what about the concentration, I did not understand, do we have to use high or low percentage? when he said damage that means is it in terms of blotchiness , AB won't cause that?
HEY, everything I said in the other passage pertain to normal healthy skin and what can possibly happen to the skin.
On behalf of mono I never try it so I don't know what percentage is safe and my professor does not either BUT we do know how the molecular interaction works in the body with these high percentage hydrophoic molecules
PERSONALLY I THINK 1% IS MAYBE EVEN TO HIGH;)

Thank brown, so your professor thinks AA is not risky? I read somewhere that it will depig but you can still tan, how is that possible?
So there are no disasters from AA? Hope this is what we are looking for, if you don't mind would you tell me how to mix it and where to get the legit one, hope it is affordable? Thanks

From my understanding this only means you can stop using the AA product and regain your pigmentation back,so that how you can tan technically speaking. I'm not sure how to dilute it that's what I'm tryying to find out:o
REMEMBER these are all opinions my professor and I NEVER experience using this product
So be wise about your decisions

Gr8stuff
Mar 24, 2008, 02:29 PM
No one has tried it yet jojo... we're trying to gather as much info as possible before trying it...

But I'll certainly be trying it very soon (at low %), so I'll keep everyone posted...

And to mix it, since it's water-soluble... the best thing to do is mix it with distilled water until it is completely diluted before mixing with any lotion/cream...

Also, use distilled water and not tap water or mineral water; cause tap water contains chlorine and mineral water contains some mineral which might interfere with AA...

Distilled water is pure C02, which is available from pharmacy and quite cheap too... You can make your own if you have a distiller (cost about $150)... I saw someone selling it on Ebay although I won't be able to tell whether it is really distilled water or just tap water.. lol.. :p

Hey Brown Skin,

I've checked Somerset as well, and their price is about the same. But don't forget you'll get only 10g for $19.:rolleyes:

Compared this to herbalInn benzylarbutin (8oz for $200) and you'll find that it's not cheap at all if you need a lot more than 10grams

Hey guys! been posting a while, and i am still awaiting my mono mix
I will have it next week!

But, i have a question..

How many shades will you lighten with "ALPHA ARBUTIN"?
Or will you only "BRIGHTEN", like a half a shade or something?

I mean, who knows the science behind alpha arbutin lightening the original skin(not dark patches, or melasma)... i mean, the whole original complexion
I mean, lightening like 2-4 shades with alpha arbutin?
Can you apply under the eyes, with alpha arbutin?
At least with mono, it will evenyually lighten under the eye area, because it is sytemetatic...

So again , i am thinking of using alpha arbutin ,
However i would like to know if it will lighten in shades, more then like 2-4?

Thanks!

And this is not knocking alpha arbutin, i just would like to know.

I have a good source to get the alpha arbutin, as well as mono, but before i buy i want to know if it will be a waste of... ummm time..

Also, alpha arbutin is not stable all the time, and i heard it looses it's effectiveness after awhile...
So let me know something, you beautifu people!!

SO LET ME KNOW SOMETHING, YOU BEAUTIFU PEOPLE!!!
HEYYYYYYYY
From my understanding I don't think anyone on here yet experience alpha-arbutin, but we have been comparing it with mono because AA is suppose to depig like mono(may be 1-2shades lighter with less side affect. We have been chatting about both of there chemical sturtures. Our results is that mono is more Permeable to the cell and cause DNA interfere than AA (THIS IS A BIG FACTOR TO CONSIDER):rolleyes:
Also no one has tryyed it yet because we can't find a company that is trust worhty to purchase from. CAN YOU PLEASE TELL ME THE COMPNAY YOU BUYING IT FROM AND THERE WEBSITE :D PM me if you feel more comfortable.
NOTE: we are just chatting about both chemical surtures and do reseach

Maybe just don't use hydroquione

Hydroquinone will give you an unatural reddish color if you are darkskin I'VE SEEN NIGERIAN WOMEN AND 1. THEY WERE STILL DARK 2. THEY HAD THAT WEIRD REDDISH COLOR

But cassie has beautiful skin (and I love her music btw)

I want to be around cassie's or jessica alba's color

Envying light skin people is dangerous for your skin. And mental state . Naturally light skin people don't have to risk skin danger from chemicals like dark skin people who artificialy try to lighten their skin to be something they were'nt meant to be. All out of envy. And that's just the bottom line

What do you mean they are refactory now??
I mean like were you allergic or something?
How much of a concentration did you use?was it really high?
Were you out in the sun a lot??

Unless you were allergic to monobenzone, the cells in your skin, melanin in your skin will die, eventually..
Mono does not just leave people with pink, blue dark colors..
That sounds like a chemical burn or something...
Unless you were out in the sun, with no sunblock...
There is no way mono could have done that to your skin..

Why would it be made to do that ?
That does not sound right..
Patches, yes will occur, we all know that , but those are the stubborn melanin fighting back... and with and spf5o sunblock, in the sun , it should not happen...
Furthermore, while one is depigmenting, they need not use strong chemical peels, ext along with mono...
And mono is not for every one:rolleyes:

UNLESS YOU WERE ALLERGIC TO MONOBENZONE, THE CELLS IN YOUR SKIN, MELANIN IN YOUR SKIN WILL DIE, EVENTUALLY..
MONO DOES NOT JUST LEAVE PEOPLE WITH PINK, BLUE DARK COLORS..
THAT SOUNDS LIKE A CHEMICAL BURN OR SOMETHING...
UNLESS YOU WERE OUT IN THE SUN, WITH NO SUNBLOCK...
THERE IS NO WAY MONO COULD OF DONE THAT TO YOUR SKIN..

WHY WOULD IT BE MADE TO DO THAT ?
THAT DOES NOT SOUND RIGHT..
PATCHES, YES WILL OCCUR, WE ALL KNOW THAT , BUT THOSE ARE THE STUBBORN MELANIN FIGHTING BACK....AND WITH AND SPF5O SUNBLOCK, IN THE SUN , IT SHOULD NOT HAPPEN....
FURTHERMORE, WHILE ONE IS DEPIGMENTING, THEY NEED NOT USE STRONG CHEMICAL PEELS, EXT ALONG WITH MONO....
AND MONO IS NOT FOR EVERY ONE:rolleyes:


OK if that makes you feel good to believe that then why don't you use it so within 1-2 yrs maybe not that long you can wish you had'n't. Like I said before don't take my word for it experience is the best teacher. And that I know first hand. You on the other hand will learn second.

chinese and indian mono...., yeah right. read my other post dear. hey on second thought don't worry about it.


First off, you don't have to be negative..
Second you never answered my questions.
What do you mean your skin will just saty in that state forever?
I men there is science behind mono, being a sytematic depigmenting agent..
So all of your melanin will eventually depigment to white skin..

What you are claiming is that your skin will be all of those colors, forever... as if the mono just stop working on your skin cells?

We know that skin acts different, and mono acts different on everyone's else's skin, however never the case of it just "STOP WORKING"...
It does not work like that,.

Thirdly, i have mentioned this last year to vahid, that if you are afraid of a rash(which some will have one) apply to the bottom half, so if you do get a rash, it will show up on your lower half, then you must dilute it down more, so it will not be as strong...

So babes, are you saying on a thread that is titled "MONOBENZONE HELP", which the author is looking for mono info, to finish his depigmentation, you are saying to us, who are wanting to try , that we all will end up, with messed up skin?? :eek: :eek:

Does this sounds like you are trying to make people not use mono..
If so shouldn't you start a different thread, maybe?:rolleyes:

I never read/heard of anyone using mono , and skin is practically falling off like you have describe your skin doing..
You are sounding like mono will burn your skin off or somethinmg...
And if that was the case my friend would have being dead by now, and actually she looks fab, and her skin looks glowing..
But she takes care of her skin, and protects it from the sun.. and she has not had a problem in almost 2 years..
So has lovie..

So "GLOOMY"... please take your cloud some where else.:cool:

gloomy123
Mar 27, 2008, 11:56 AM
And if you atart this mono journey you will be on this cloud right along with me. vit people depig fast for a reason because their immune system is killing off their cells first off. Normal skin people takes longer along with the fact that monobenzone treatment is NOT Permanent. AND THE CELLS WILL FIGHT BACK AND MELAIN CELLS Comeback STRONGER.

And I'm willing to bet you're african american. So therfore you will defeinatly have blotchy skin and color contrast. And if your getting mono from india and china you're in for some serious skin jack up. Sherylcrow I'll give you 1yr. Less and you will have messed up skin.

Put your money where your mouth is.

gloomy123
Mar 27, 2008, 12:09 PM
To sherylcrow.

That light skin that you envy and wish you had is a dream. And to top it off you will become darker that's a fact. And you still will be your original color. Just patched up. And further more the reservior of melain that is in the 2-3 layer of skin. YOU CAN NOT KILL. THEY ACTIVATE AND BECOME REFACTORY. ONLY VITILIGO PERSONS DO NOT HAVE THIS PROBLEM(RARELY) ALSO YOU CAN REPIGMENT WITH MONOBENZONE TOO. DID YOU KNOW THAT?? Did'nt think so. Monobenzone only penetrates so deep.

As long as you have normal pigment you will be forever trying to depigment. You just won't kill all the melain and you would have to do that to have evn skin. Or like I said it will look blotchy. But that's on you. Young , and bull head leads to tears, and regret.

Dfo what you want I don't care . Just don't get on her crying, when you up then be looking for support cause it ain't going to happen too much info on here to warn you. And people like me who have experience it to warn you. Anthing else is just stupid. Touch mono you can forget modeling they won't even look at you . Skin that's of any brown color will show blotches.

So is this what you do all day"gloomy"..
Sit on here and try to berate, people trying to acieve their dream skin tone?
Fyi, i am of african american and indian descent, so why would that have anything to do with wanting to depigment the skin??
Sounds like you are racist!!

And furthermore, why not try to tell people other options like alpha arbutin, or something,

You sound like everyone else... just loove your skin... blah.. blah.. blah..

I guess that is why there is even an skin lightening market anyway... because everyone just loooves dark skin.. ecspecially dark skin girls.. /women...

Ummmmn noooo... they don't...
Do ya read?
Haven't you heard about colorism, the job markets preferring light skin..
No matter if you are degreed...
Why all/ many men/practically all over the globe, wanting to marry and breed with white/or lighter women??

So i guess darker women are just making this up, and just woke up one day and said"I ANT TO BE 3 SHADES LIGHTER"...

No, it is because of hurt/pain/ feeling discriminated on, no matter how hard you try, and how good you do, or how many degrees you have.
Degrees, can't hug you.
And please don't bring up oprah, or some bogus, once in a lifetime happening...
Until the market make it possible for darker girls to feel appreciated, and loved, and beautiful, mono will always be a choice for them/us..
Risks are involved in everything... right?

You are a real kill -joy... "GLOOMY"...
Please suggest something else that will lighten others skin besides mono, and alpha arbutin... since you want to be the preacher of all things to do with mono as bad.
Your suggestions goes here___________________

Vahid seems to be doing fine, and lovie1 has been using it for a while, my friend has been using benoquin a while...
How do you explain those people?

I GUESS THAT IS WHY THERE IS EVEN AN SKIN LIGHTENING MARKET ANYWAY...BECAUSE EVERYONE JUST LOOOVES DARK SKIN..ECSPECIALLY DARK SKIN GIRLS../WOMEN...

UMMMMN NOOOO...THEY DONT...
DO YA READ?
HAVENT YOU HEARD ABOUT COLORISM, THE JOB MARKETS PREFERRING LIGHT SKIN..
NO MATTER IF YOU ARE DEGREED ...
WHY ALL/ MANY MEN/PRACTICALLY ALL OVER THE GLOBE, WANTING TO MARRY AND BREED WITH WHITE/OR LIGHTER WOMEN??????????

SO I GUESS DARKER WOMEN ARE JUST MAKING THIS UP, AND JUST WOKE UP ONE DAY AND SAID"I ANT TO BE 3 SHADES LIGHTER"...

NO, IT IS BECAUSE OF HURT/PAIN/ FEELING DISCRIMINATED ON, NO MATTER HOW HARD YOU TRY, AND HOW GOOD YOU DO, OR HOW MANY DEGREES YOU HAVE.
DEGREES, can't HUG YOU.
AND PLEASE DONT BRING UP OPRAH, OR SOME BOGUS, ONCE IN A LIFETIME HAPPENING...
UNTIL THE MARKET MAKE IT POSSIBLE FOR DARKER GIRLS TO FEEL APPRECIATED, AND LOVED, AND BEAUTIFUL, MONO WILL ALWAYS BE A CHOICE FOR THEM/US ..

HOW DO YOU EXPLAIN THOSE PEOPLE?




SO WAHT DO YOU SUPPOSE "GLOOMY",?????
JUST , GET OVER IT...IS THAT THE SOLUTION????????


Yeah vahid and lovie 1 were originally light skin people in the first place right?? read the old post and you will see for yourself as well, vahid post pics. willing to bet you are darker than he is. And his ethnic is different. So is lovies you can look at them and tell.. oh bu tdid'nt they post the race mixture yes they did. Those were already light people.

Simply you are going to mess yourself up. And not only will you have those so called problems of being dark skin. You will also have the problem of patch work skin to go along with that. Ha.

Then comeback and tell us how hard it is to get a job. Get a spouse, But one thing I can garuntee is you will get NOTICE. BUT IT WON'T BE THE WAY YOU WANT TO GET NOTICE.

Then you will be ''GLOOMY'' too.

I heard on 20,20 show before about Chinese medicine, ( of course not all of them are not genuine and without integrity) any way, this guy with high cholesterol was taking his medicine from this pharmacy (the pharmacy gets its medicines from China) any way the guy died because what he was taking was not a cholesterol medication, was fake, and in this case it might be mixed with any thing.
What gloomy is saying might not happen to you the same way, but the risk still stands, just appreciate her and wish her well and do whatever you want to do
I have a big change of heart, if you go to any doctor they won't object on using Hydroquinone which all of you think is a very very bad, they will prescribe it for you if you need it, but under no circumstances they will prescribe mono for you if you are not over 70% with vitiligo

True and that's why a lot of these people don't go to the doctors BECAUSE they want monobenzone for lightening, and they KNOW that the docs won't give it to them. THIS IS WHY ILLEGAL MONOBENZONE ,MEDICINES FROM ACROSS SEAS IS A BIG Business.

And also a potential to be scammed with fake medicines.
And if I was smart enough to have used common sense I would'nt be in the situation I'm in now.

Yeah Michael jackson may have used it. But I BET YOU HE DID'NT GET IT FROM CHINA AND INDIA. AND I BET HE HAD REAL DOCS. AND DERMS. TO ASSIST HIM TOO. It wasn't no self made cream. which is what a lot of you are doing.

Actually, gloomy if you have read my post, i said i am mixed with indian and african american..
And i also said that i was about a shade and a half, darker then vahids original color!

So how much of a difference would that really make?
I mean, if you are suuuuper black, of course it is not adviseable to use mono, but again i am not skillet black, a shade and a half darker then vahid...
So it is okay, if you are light,light skin to use the mono without vitiligo, but if you have the least bit color in your skin it is not??

Whatever...

And benoquin is prescribe for people with 50% vitiligo are more...
That is a fact muna, read it up on any vitiligosupport/boards, which i am a member on...

And i am the original poster who told vahid that you should never use mono on your face to begin with... because of a possible rash occurring...

And lastly to gloomy, you say very little about what a person should do to find love if they are darker skinned...
I am from the indian family, and know no matter hwat you do... in the indian culture(even native born indians, like my mom)... they look down upon anyone who is not realllllllllly light skin... the men ,the women... practically everyone in the indian community... jobs, finances , are affected by this...
Not just love...
I mean, if i want to be an entertainer, and that is what i want to do...
I would rather be lighter skinned, and have a greater chance of making it, then my original, light golden caramel/light peanut butter color...
Anf furthermore, i have money to seek derms/doctors if need be..

Lastly i am not that dark to begin with...
You are making it like mono should only be used by any culture other then the black culture/or those with dark brown-my complected skin color...
Then if these people who are already light liggt skinned, why are they using it, if they are already, light/light skinned??

You have been on here the last week, trying to be a scaremonger...
I looked at this board for support, and was getting plenty until you showed up...
And you still have not suggested any cream/ or what not to use to lighten relatively safely..
You are quick to call us stupid, but you have yet to desribe what you done/what percent/what measures you took to prevent any bad reactions from mono...
All you are doing is, trying to make people feel miserable like you, because you did not take the fullest cautiom possinble to do it right..
And you need to stop trying to make it like your skin will fall off or something, when that is not the case, the worse that can happen if you use mono is*repigmentation from too much sun exposure, which is reverseable
*patchy looking skin----that will eventually fully depigment
*and at the begginiong a small rash..

Yes your situation is unique, gloomy..
Because my friend is darker the me, and with like
25 % vitiligo, very small amnt, on her lower back, which is now matching with all of her skin..
And she had no problems besides a small rash, at the beginning which, after she diluted it became okay..
And she has been using for going on 2 yrs..
Darker then me.

So who cares, my mono is here, and i will use this weekend, i am getting mine mixed at a pharmacy by a professional, whom i have known a good while... i will not sit and wait forever to become what i want to, because some unique rare , incident happened to you gloomy..
How black were you when you first used?
That might have had something to do with it.

THAT IS A FACT MUNA, READ IT UP ON ANY VITILIGOSUPPORT/BOARDS, WHICH I AM A MEMBER ON....

NOT JUST LOVE...
I MEAN, IF I WANT TO BE AN ENTERTAINER, AND THAT IS WHAT I WANT TO DO...
I WOULD RATHER BE LIGHTER SKINNED, AND HAVE A GREATER CHANCE OF MAKING IT, THEN MY ORIGINAL, LIGHT GOLDEN CARAMEL/LIGHT PEANUT BUTTER COLOR....
ANF FURTHERMORE, I HAVE MONEY TO SEEK DERMS/DOCTORS IF NEED BE..

LASTLY I AM NOT THAT DARK TO BEGIN WITH...
YOU ARE MAKING IT LIKE MONO SHOULD ONLY BE USED BY ANY CULTURE OTHER THEN THE BLACK CULTURE/OR THOSE WITH DARK BROWN-MY COMPLECTED SKIN COLOR...
THEN IF THESE PEOPLE WHO ARE ALREADY LIGHT LIGGT SKINNED, WHY ARE THEY USEING IT, IF THEY ARE ALREADY, LIGHT/LIGHT SKINNED?????

YOU HAVE BEEN ON HERE THE LAST WEEK, TRYING TO BE A SCAREMONGER...

HOW BLACK WERE YOU WHEN YOU FIRST USED?
THAT MIGHT HAVE HAD SOMETHING TO DO WITH IT.


Go ahead you'll regret it later . Furthermore there is not a pharmist or chemist that will risk losing thier licsense to mix a medication for someone who does'nt have a medical need for it.
if you could have gotton a professional to do irt in the first place legally. then you would'nt have been going thru hoops from country to country to try and get this stuff illegally. you simply would have gone to this ''pharmacy'' in the first place...... please.
You even said in your post some 'friend' in canada was mixing it so I take it that's who your pharmasist is?. yeah,

I GUESS THAT IS WHY THERE IS EVEN AN SKIN LIGHTENING MARKET ANYWAY...BECAUSE EVERYONE JUST LOOOVES DARK SKIN..ECSPECIALLY DARK SKIN GIRLS../WOMEN...

UMMMMN NOOOO...THEY DONT...
DO YA READ?
HAVENT YOU HEARD ABOUT COLORISM, THE JOB MARKETS PREFERRING LIGHT SKIN..
NO MATTER IF YOU ARE DEGREED ...
WHY ALL/ MANY MEN/PRACTICALLY ALL OVER THE GLOBE, WANTING TO MARRY AND BREED WITH WHITE/OR LIGHTER WOMEN??????????

SO I GUESS DARKER WOMEN ARE JUST MAKING THIS UP, AND JUST WOKE UP ONE DAY AND SAID"I ANT TO BE 3 SHADES LIGHTER"...

NO, IT IS BECAUSE OF HURT/PAIN/ FEELING DISCRIMINATED ON, NO MATTER HOW HARD YOU TRY, AND HOW GOOD YOU DO, OR HOW MANY DEGREES YOU HAVE.
DEGREES, can't HUG YOU.
AND PLEASE DONT BRING UP OPRAH, OR SOME BOGUS, ONCE IN A LIFETIME HAPPENING...

JUST , GET OVER IT...IS THAT THE SOLUTION????????

Sheralcrow, I must say you so WRONG. What you are saying is ALL in your head! I can't believe you have such a warped view of the world. My complexion is like Naomi Campbelle so I am pretty dark and I have NEVER experienced any discrimination because of my skin tone. In Fact people of all races and colors tell me I am sooo Beautiful. I am not exaggerating when I say that not a week goes by in my life without someone telling me I am georgious. I am not bragging, it's the truth.

And how can you say all men don't like dark women?? My mother is very dark and my dad who is very light skined married her. So what are you talking about? My husband is WHITE and he loves my skin tone and so do his family, they are always commenting on how I have such nice skin. There are so all the dark women I know are happily married.
And by the way, I have degree in Biology and I have a very good Job! I was not descriminated because I was dark. That is such a riduculous conspiracy theory. Stop using your skin tone as an excuse for being a slacker. Anyone can achieve anything they want no matter their race, color, age, height, wieght etc.

The reason why you feel that way is because it is all in your head! I think before you try and lighten your skin you should probably invest that money in gettting some psychiatric counseling for your LOW selfesteem issues.

And how do we know that monobenozone or these other stronger lighteners won't damage our skin once we stop using it?

But we are still here searching for the right lighteners huh? I've used hydro for over 20 years and my skin didn't started getting darker until I used mono 3% go figure...

Mar 28, 2008, 04:07 PM
3% mono will do nothing.. honestly =)

don't use mono if you want to lighten.. it depigs the skin

mono can give you freckles and blotches.. which isn't that noticeable when you have a light complexion..

bless you

Okay, guys I have just applied the mono again tonight, just out of the shower..
And yes it stung a little bit more this time...

Side note**i also use body exfoliating gloves, that you can buy at walmart... they help the thick body cells turn over really well, so twhen I get out the tub, I can apply the mono really well, and it goes on my legs smooth..

Since I have like 3 huge bottles, for my body, and 2 large ones for my face, I will not have to order any more for like 4-5 mnths..
Remember I am starting slowly..

My mixture is really silky, becasuse of the chemist mixing it for me..
It feels like smooth cocoa butter going on my legs..

I do feel a stinging sensation that lasts about 2-5 minutes, but it does not hurt, it is like a small sting on my lower half of my legs, I apply only under my knees..
And I am just so excited to know, that if/when I am done with this batch(whcich will be a long time from now)
I will definiately see plenty of lightening..

I am eafer as heck!

But I don't sit and just think about it all day, I will have patience and do it right, so my golden /caramel skin tone will eventually become a creamy bright /whiteish/palesish bright gold color..


I can't wait to turn my golden honey nipples into a pink blossom/reddish color..
Guys This will be like a journey like no other..

Do you guys think I should ask the chemist to add some ethanol to it..
Or , should I do it myself?
NO... I am sure the chemist knew what he did the other day when he mixed it..
I hust heard ethanol will make it dissolve even more faster, into my skin...
Anyway will keep posting guys!

Yes , the mind is a powerful source, I believe like vahid , did that I can be whatever I want... :) :) :)
Now that is not to say tha I will not have bumps ahead...
Yes you WILL TURN light, if you are whoppi'ds color.. BUT EXPECT, IT NOT TO GOO TOO SMOOTHLY, AT FIRST, BE PATINET, FOR I LEARNED HOW TO BE, SINCE ALL OF THIS I HAVE BEEN THROUGH TO GET IT..
YOU GUYS JUST Don't UNDERSTAND, I HAVE BEEN THROUGH SOME CRAP TO get this mono.. and it must be meant, for me to depigment, since, I ran into a USA supplier... like some devine intervention or something... lol...
And if you do it right, and get it mixed right..
If you can get one to mix it in a lab, the better, you have to go in it with full caution

If I was not going to depigment, I would be right up in the line to use the chemist PURE ALPHA ARBUTIN POWDER...
But I don't want to to waist more time(not saying his alpha arbutin, is not pure, and good, and won't lighten well)
However, I want to just finally depigment once and for all..
And I am .

A lot of you don't want to hear the truth. Because you just want this to be a perfect world where nothing can go wrong. Well it's not. You'll have problems worst than dark skin if you keep using monobenzone. It's that simple. I'm willing to bet a lot of you are young. So you think you know it all. Well I've been down that road. And you better believe it's going to take way longer than 1-2yrs to depigment skin that estimate of time is for people with vitiligo. Now imagine using this stuff and becoming spotty, and disfigures . But hey, more disfigured women in the world. Lessens the competition. Which is the road that a lot of you are heading.

So by all means use it . But ffcor those who CARE about your skin since it's the largest organ of the body. Consider other methods of skin lightening. Because these people on here are heading some where that you don't want to go.

Having lighter / white skin doesn't give you the life of easy. Or everything will just fall at yoyr feet. Because you will still have the same problems, situations, like everyone else YOU ARE NOT IMMUNE.

And if the reason for lightening your skin is to get a man to love you. And the only reason he's with you is because of your artificial light skin. Guess what? THAT LOVE IS CONDITIONAL.
do know this i will continue to inform people of the dangers of using monobenzone on normal skin. and if that bothers you then simply don't read my post. see how simple that is.

So if you think I don't know what I'm talking about. Simple don't read. And that way you can live ina world that you want to be in . Full of fiction that is.

Actually Sheralcorw the reason why I am on this forum is because I was a proffessional tennis player for years in my teens and played in the sun without sun screen so as a result my face is 3-4shades darker than my body.

My body is caramel-cinimon while my face is milk cocolate. So I am trying to get rid of all the discoloration from the sun on my face to go back to my ORIGINAL comlexion which is a dark caramel. So I am not trying to be someone I am not. I love my original skin tone. I don't desire to be white or super light skinned, I am very happy with my normal complexion and I don't have a low self esteem. I love the way I look and I don't feel inferior to people who have lighter skin than me because that is just pathetic.

The reason why men are not attracted to you is not because you are dark but it is because they can sense that you have not confidence in yourself and you want to be someone you are not.
I live in Florida (the south) and I have black guys hitting on me 24 7. too bad I am not attracted to black men. My Husband is white, he is a A&F model so he is super HOT and he finds me sexy. So do 99.999% of men. So don't tell me that your ldark skin hinders you, it is just your lack of self confidence that turn men off. ;)

Oh please, men typically favor lighter women (whether some of them will admit it or not).

In every single culture, the man is dark while the woman is light. Of course there are exceptions, but this is ideal in every culture.

I'm not saying dark isn't or can't be beautiful, because it is... but let's face it, the majority of people don't think that (particularly in the case of women)--and the world does not run that way. Having light skin IS an advantage--romantically, socially, politically, and financially--whether you want to admit it or not. You can be in denial all you want to. But that's just reality.

Are there beautiful dark people? Of COURSE! Are there successful dark people? Of COURSE! But let's be realistic here--these people who are dark and admired and successful in life are totally outnumbered by those who are not dark.

It's perfectly OK when a pasty white person wants a tan to be olive-colored, but when someone wants to be LIGHTER, everyone just freaks out. What a double standard. That needs to change.

Hey sheral did you order one pound from him? or more? Thanks!

He sweetheart!

See, I already had 700 grams of mono from anil..
THAT ONE IS MIXED, I then had the oppurtunity, to get another pound of it from the usa supplier.
So basically I have now 2 pounds mixed, for my personal use:) :)

It is just the fact that there are too many problems getting his into the usa.

I am not interested in bashing you. I am just trying to make you aware that having dark skin is not your problem because there are many dark people including myself who lead very normal lives. Like i said i have never been descriminated because of my skin tone.


Okay, we get you and gloomy's point..

we will be disfigured for life:rolleyes: :rolleyes: :rolleyes:.. lol...
I sooo beg to differ...

I want to know hat you and gloomy are getting out saying this over and over again..

if the world was not really discrimatory, then no one would want to change their skin color...
however, we, all know what most men prefer.. '
lighter=better, in their eyes..
and it is not just men, perse', it is women alike..

I know one can still make money if they are burdened with darker skin tones, however, I know too many aunties, cousins , friends of the family who are dark skinned and professional making a lot of money.. (mainly women)...
and on Saturday nights, and around the time it is time to kick it, and party.. '
they are also the ones looking lonely, sad , and bitter...
and they aren't ugly, they are just darker ironically, then the aunties , cousins friends of mine who are lighter skinned toned.:) :)

And yes, many dark skin women are pretty, however they are usaually the 5'9 , types, who are thin as heck(models)...
or the ones who are the booty girls in the vidoes...
not all dark skinned girl, have big bottoms, as their ticket to find love?
and not all are 5'9, and boney to be supermodels.

However, you do tend to notice, most "AVERAGe", looking girls, who are short... but the differnce is they are lighter skinned, or diff. race, which usually is what makes up for their average bodies, and height.<<<<they tend to be the features in the videos, or what not, or considered dimes..
thanks to their light skin privileges.
now, am I lying?

And honestly, I think all these people who keep posting saying "love your self",
Would be the first ones to jump at the call of a new skin lightening cream that will indeed lighten their skin shades, like 3 or more shades lighter...
These same people who are telling people not to use mono..
However, the only lightening cream that will even come close to lightening in shades is alpha arbutin, and that will not last forever like mono...
And you too have to get that in powder form, so it would not be diluted down, with the other perservatives, like that in say, japanese lightenin creams...

Also, if all of you are so pro black or what not.. '
Then do you tell the thousands of girls who wear weaves, that they are denying their race, or whites who tan, like there is no tomorrow, that they are..
Or the people with a large bnose who opte for nose surgery, that they hate themselves, or the girl who gets lip injections that they are hateing themse;ves..

Well then leave us alone!
This, transformation that we are going through with will help us, and we believe it will ,so that is all that matters!!

okey if you say so. Again I am not like gloomy I am not trying to stop you from using mono. I couldn't care less. I was just responding to your claim that dark people can't get jobs and men which I found ridiculous.




if the world was not really discrimatory, then no one would want to change their skin color...
however, we, all know what most men prefer.. '
lighter=better, in their eyes..
and it is not just men, perse', it is women alike..

this is incorrect because white people tan to look darker, not because the are discriminated against if they are pale so your theory falls apart right there.


I know one can still make money if they are burdened with darker skin tones, however, I know too many aunties, cousins , friends of the family who are dark skinned and professional making a lot of money.. (mainly women)...
and on Saturday nights, and around the time it is time to kick it, and party.. '
they are also the ones looking lonely, sad , and bitter...
and they aren't ugly, they are just darker ironically, then the aunties , cousins friends of mine who are lighter skinned toned.:) :)

Maybe the reason why I don't experience this type of discrimination is because I don't hang out with ignorant black people. I was born and raised in the suburbs and all the black people I know are all educated well of people. What you are describing sound like gheto mentality. MY best friend is very lightskined because her mom is white but she is not as pretty as me. Every time we go out I have way more guys hitting on me than her. Black and white! Because I have confidence in myself and I don't have an inferiority complex.
I know there are some people who prefer lighter and some prefer darker. I have the same preference. I prefer white men to black. That's Just my preference it doesn't mean I don't find Black men attractive, I just prefer white men.



And yes, many dark skin women are pretty, however they are usaually the 5'9 , types, who are thin as heck(models)...

Oh please, men typically favor lighter women (whether some of them will admit it or not).

In every single culture, the man is dark while the woman is light. Of course there are exceptions, but this is ideal in every culture.

I'm not saying dark isn't or can't be beautiful, because it is...but let's face it, the majority of people don't think that (particularly in the case of women)--and the world does not run that way. Having light skin IS an advantage--romantically, socially, politically, and financially--whether you want to admit it or not. You can be in denial all you want to. But that's just reality.

Are there beautiful dark people? Of COURSE! Are there successful dark people? Of COURSE! But let's be realistic here--these people who are dark and admired and successful in life are totally outnumbered by those who are not dark.

It's perfectly OK when a pasty white person wants a tan to be olive-colored, but when someone wants to be LIGHTER, everyone just freaks out. What a double standard. That needs to change.
I agree 100%

St Louis? I lived in Kansas City for 3 years and never experienced descrimination for my skin tone. I though you said you lived in the south?

That's fine, lighten your complextion, I have no problem with that. I am just saying don't feel inferior to light skinned people. Men like pretty girls with nice bodies no matter what complextion they are. So if someone is ugly and they don't have a nice body, getting lighter skin is not going to help you get more men.
I am Kim porter's complexion originally but my face is darker from sun exposure so I am trying to lighten back to the cinimon complexion of my body. I love my original complexion.

Hey SassyT

I definitely agree with you. I am a dark skin female. But I get a lot of attention and mostly by fair skin men. White men and hispanic men. And all men do NOT favor light skin women. Maybe a large majority of black men. I am too trying to slightly lighten my face(safely) because my body is verrry fair skin but my face is dark like kim porters/naomi campbell. I don't want to be light skin because I do like the attention from men from other ethnicity.

Sheralcrow you mentioned about most of prejudice/color issue mostly comes from black men. And you are right. I agree with you about that. This has always been an issue from the beginning of time. But it is something that they feel insecure about inside of themselves.

It may sound cliché that "you guys need to love yourself"(not saying to stop lightening) is because no matter what you do to yourself, you will always find something else to dislike about you. That's why it always begins with loving you first.

Finally! Someone who agrees with me! You are right, it is mostly dark skinned black men who like light skinned women. Most of the Black men I get attention from are light skinned. I think dark men who descriminate against dark women just have a complex about their own appearance and some times it is just a preference. Just like some men like women who are thick and curvey and some men like women who are slim and slender. So what?

So my advice to sheralcrow is open your eyes and stop limiting your male options to the few ignorant black men in your community. I am no lying when I tell you how much I can't get men to stop hitting on me and Gnies just agreed she has the same experience. My Husband even hates going to the club with me because guys(all races) just hit on me and they don't care that my husband is right next to me.. lol

St louis is the mid west not the south.


Yes I did live in Kansas city and like I said I never experienced descrimination because of my skin tone. Yes I am attractive and people do say I am beautiful but again I don't hang out with the ignorant gheto crowd so I am sure that makes a difference.

Even if a black guy doesn't find me attractive because I am dark, I couldn't care less because 1. chances are I don't find him attractive either and 2. I know that there are billion of other men out there who find me attractive. So just because I a handful of men don't like my skin tone, does not mean I am going to lose myself confidence and feel inferior.
So Sheralcrow, if you are going to lighten your skin do it for the right reason, don't do it to please a bunch of ignorant black men when there are plenty of other options.

P.S
I have a gal who does my hair who is Sudanes so she is blue BLACK and her boyfriend is a super cute latin guy. So if she can get a man you have no excuse.

I am using Diana Stalder whitening cream and the kojic papaya soap. It is also just lighten me one shade and I have been using it for almost 3 months. But my skin is smooth and clear. I am also not in a rush to lighten because I want to do it right. I want to lighten 3 shades on my face to match my body. I was thinking of trying this product below. It is very potent because it has about 4 lightening agents and it has all natural ingredients.

Let me know how the peel goes because I have thought of getting one.

The Peter Roth has a lot of stuff to lighten. DS only has Kojic acid and licorice while PTR has Azelaic Acid, Kojic Acid, Bearberry Extract, Mulberry Extract, Ascorbic Acid (vitamin c) which are all lightening agents. Most products only have 2 active ingr. this one has 5! So it is very potent. I will let you know how it goes when start using it.

Monobenzone is for vitiligo suffers . Not for normal skin. Your skin will become blotchy. And uneven. Pinkish white spots, you will disfigure your skin and that's a fact and no way around it. And african americans and hispanics (esp) with dark skin will have the more ovious diffent patches of pigment

And you still won't get the color you want even in the long run. Cells can become refractory to monobenzone. Also repigmentation can occur.

Hello, iam using monobenzone too, before I did I have researched it a lot. Monobenzone is not lightning product it is depgmintation agent basically destroying the melanocyte (which are responsible for the brown colour in skin). Now you can not try it for few months and quit, you have to complete the whole course i.e. your whole body is white and killed all the pigments in your body. Some take 2yrs some 1yr and others few months. My friend been using it for 10 months, she is white but still have few shades she went to get rid off.



it is cream and come in different strengths 20% is the popular one but I make mine from raw material. The higher the faster to get to your goal but then you end up patchy!! Slow steady and by the time you are very light the patches will not be seen like my friend right now. She only use 10-15% and she is white in 10 months and was dark before her results are my inspiration.

Where do you buy the 20% monob. how much it cost? How big is it? How far can one tube/bottle reach? How long before you can see the result if you use it 2 time a day? I have asian skin and I do not wish to be white but have some skin problem so... you can write to [email protected]

The person she scammed was me. Please, whatever you do, stay away from this girl. She is now posting on other forums trying to scam other people.

To to hear this... How much money did you lose?

-IMPORTANT-

you shouldn't use 20% or over

vahid can because he already had a light complexion

but if your darker than vahid you should use 5%-15%

so you won't turn pale white

here is a quote from boricua1 from aother thread she is talking about benzylarbutin but it also helps with monobenzone-

Boricua1-

the girl in the forum has vitiligo.... and she used monoenzene first..... of course mono bleaches all color from the skin and the darker your skin the chalkier and more pasty white your skin will look (Not natural or nice at all...) due to the fact that skin with more melanin tends to be thicker...... I would not suggest using a high concentration of 20% to anybody..... skin lightening is a gradual process and should take a little time allow the product to work...... burning off layers of your skin may seem to work at first but you wil soon see how your body will try to fight that extremely fast process by darkening... and or scarring... It can help to use soaps with kojic acid once a week or a lotion or cream with kojic acid... in order to target malanin synthesis on many different levels..... remember that skin has many ways of producing color.. if it seems that a lower concentration is not working try a different approach before switching concentrations all together and getting a stronger product..... your skin is used to being a certain color..... it's been that color for most of your life.... do not expect it to get used to change as quickly as your mind is ..... most lightening can take at least 3-4 months..... even years for permanent or drastic results... you can mostly expect bightening for the first few months .... which is a good thing.... you may actually find it was what you complexion neede all along instead of lightening..... I have a good firend who is very dark African skinned.... and I am a dull ark brown like hispanic.... we decided to start lightening a bit together and after a few months we started to realize that brightening was actually what we both wanted and needed more...... most of our problems with complexion (especially women of color) we blame on dark skin when actually what we need to do is get our skin in it's best condition....... removing blemishes, acne, uneveness, and scars...(Which all begins to happen in the "Brightening" process......).... take your time with a 5% or no higher than 10% benzyl arbutin concentration....... see what happens.... take notice of compliments... (cause you'll start to get them..) don't be too critical ... look at your progress... not the end results.... or else it will never happen fast enough or be good enough....... abd you'll find yourself caught in the loop of buying product after product seeing no results... most products may not lghten your skin but they will lighten your wallet....... benzyl arbutin seems to be a good product but use it wisely and patiently I advise you with the greatest care and counsel..........

I know this is old but...

Skin with more melanin is actually (and ironically), thinner.

I read it in an article somewhere... well it was an article about "African-American" skin, stating that this skin type is thinner than others, contrary to popular assumptions. This could also explain why darker skin is so sensitive and reacts in dramatic ways to being irritated (example, lightening products, etc).

For the 10421542545th time, CherylCrow was banned because she was a SCAMMER. She scammed ME out of a lot of money, and she was exposed for it.

Anil is not fake, many people on this board have gotten their mono from Anil, including me.

Now, Cheryl is on other forums scamming people all day and all night, trying to convince them to buy fake ish from her so that she can order more from anil for herself.

The mono you ordered from Anil, is it lightening your skin a lot?

I heard that there is no halfway mark with regards to pigmentation, and that you go completely white with continued monobenzone use.

This is good for me as this is what I want. I am already white, but I want to look completely albino (fluorescent white to pink) like, with no melanin left in my already rather white skin (sort of Rose McGowan colour atm). Streaks will therefore not pose any problem; plus I also live in Britain, which means that there is little sunshine, and even when there is, I'm in a situation whereby I won't have to go out in it.

Does exfoliation speed up the progression?

Also would leaving the monobenzone on for a longer period create a more favourable environment in which its effects can manifest?

Also.

How do people on here rate 7unite as a source of monobenzone / benoquin?

Hello, iam using monobenzone too, before I did I have researched it a lot. Monobenzone is not lightning product it is depgmintation agent basically destroying the melanocyte (which are responsible for the brown colour in skin). Now you can not try it for few months and quit, you have to complete the whole course i.e. your whole body is white and killed all the pigments in your body. Some take 2yrs some 1yr and others few months. My friend been using it for 10 months, she is white but still have few shades she went to get rid off.



it is cream and come in different strengths 20% is the popular one but I make mine from raw material. The higher the faster to get to your goal but then you end up patchy!! Slow steady and by the time you are very light the patches will not be seen like my friend right now. She only use 10-15% and she is white in 10 months and was dark before her results are my inspiration.
Please tell me how you got this to go into your skin it want go into mines

Buy some mono powder and mix it/blend it yourself with some kind of lotion (aura glow cream is soooo great--it's like pure silk), and ethyl alcohol.

You all keep saying "buy mono powder but you never give your source why is that? I'm sure you all have a camera and video cam. Why don't you show us how to mix the powder with what ever creams, oil, alcohol you are using and upload your video on YouTube?? Anytime I want to find out how to do something I go to YouTube.

You all always say your mono is working but never show real before and after photo's using the same lighting. Most of these photo's on here are phoney except one. This Indian guy really looks like he use some type of depigment cream from his before and after photo's but he claims his dermatologist order his prescription
