I have ordered it from a Canadian website and I received it yesterday. I am so freaked out to use it. Monobenzone.net sent me a white jar with computer printed label!! The texture of the mixture is uneven and little rough. It looks like someone mixed salt in an off white creamy thing. It is defenitly not what I expected as a cream. Is it suppose to look like this? HELLLP PLEASE

Is it possible if you can take a photo and attach it here... I got my mono cream this week also.. but not from where you got it... and the cream is an off white colour and has crystal flakes all through it... quite rough also... mine came in a blue plastic bottle, very well sealed up...

Try using your cream and see what happens... do you feel any tingling... do you get dizzy or tired... does it burn slightly or itch? Just notice these things and let us know OK...

Hello MJ2006
I think mine has same description of yours, I have used it for the first time this morning and so far no side effects noticed. Can you please tell me if you will be mixing it with any other lotions or creams? I mixed a little bit of mine with Eucerin cream

Also, how is your skin tone? Too dark or medium? I am like kim kardshian's tone but with LOTS of dark spots and my elbows are dark as well.

Can it be applied lightly to sensitive areas such as inner thighs and under arms?

@spotted You and I ordered from the same place. Yes, that's how much jar looked. It was white with a computer print jar. BUt when I got it my label has 5% srtached off and they wrote 20% on in... :-/? I asked them about it and they were like they ran out of 20% label.wth, don't you have to print that up... BUt the substance its just like your described above... it looks not too mixed up but mine has a fragrance-it actually smells really good. I have been using it for like a month or close to it. At first, It make my skin lighter like for a week and so. Then my skin got crinkly and burnt because it was about to peel. During that time my skin got darker. BUt right now, some of my skin peeled a little and LET ME TELL YOU, it was light with like a pink undertone. I was so excited to see that. My skin burns a lot whenever I apply it... like I apply 1-2 thin layer of mono then mix it with coco butter to try and ease the feeling... plus coco butter keeps the skin better skin its creaking and peeling BUt I am still using it and trying to get some overall results.. what percentage did you get? I

Hi RedDiamod
I got the 20% strength and as you said it smells realllly good. I have mixed it in a small jar before applying it to my skin. I will keep you guys posted.

Thanks for sharing your experience , now I am really excited

Hey, I have been using the cream from this morning also, and the side effects are a little similar to when I was using the kaisen mono... which is kind of scary? But the look of the cream is so different... the kaisen didn't have any crystal flakes, whereas, the 7unite does, which means they use real mono... but how much of it... who knows for sure really. It burnt my skin... just around my nose area, and real slightly on my arms and legs... im itching like hell on my legs right now and on my arms... and that is supposed to mean that the melanin is being killed...

I apply is everywhere... even under the arms and the private parts... it didn't sting there at all, though it tingles a bit... My skin has been baby smooth since I have had the cream on... I have applied it 3 times today already... when I applied it the first time, just the cream.. not mixed with anything else... I had flakes stuck all over me... and it was a pain to clear them off... had to get a towel and scratch them off! Though the second and third time applying, I used cocoa oil from palmers and applied that after the cream and really rubbed it in, and that fixed most of the flakey problem which was good...

My eyes are a bit stingy and my vision is a bit funny since I applied the mono, even though I didn't use it around my eyes... and my lips have been burning though the mono didn't go there either... so I don't know... maybe its just spreading from under the skin everywhere... who knows...
I did feel really tired after applying the mono though... not sure if that is another side effect... as I felt this before when I used mono powder, not cream... but when I was using the 3% cream from eBay... I had no bad side effects at all like dizziness or vision problems... so I don't know... anyone else been suffering these symptoms?

Also my skin colour is just normal white... not pale... which I want to be... so I'm hoping the mono helps me in achieving that..

So you say you have good results from this stuff (monobenzone.net) or what? How long have you been using it?

Right now I'm using pure mono powder from India and I've been using it for about two months now. My skin is actually peeling and in certain areas it's revealing a very light color with pink undertones. Like right under my breasts, my knees, my elbows (which is great!). I haven't really been applying it to my face at all. I just want to see the effects of everywhere else first. My hands were also the first thing to actually gradually get lighter. I noticed the texture changing.

I was planning on buying some from monobenzone.net but I'm not sure if it's legit.

Thanks! :)

At first I had great results for like a week. Girl I got yellow it was awesome. But recently my skin got darker and crinkly then it peeled. Its still peeling as of today. I seen a spot that was light with red undertones where my skin was peeling at it looks like I will have good results. Your results sound good too. How come you don't stay with who ever u ordered that batch from? What percent did u use and was was your before/after color like ? How long u been using mono?

Well I will stay with this powder, which is 99% pure, and I'm using it at around 20%... I'd just prefer the compounded cream, though. It probably comes out smoother than I could ever make it myself, I'm sure. If, that is, the people who are compounding it actually know what they are doing. If not, then I might as well stay with my powder lol.

Your results sound good, that's great. Keep me updated on your progress and I will keep you updated too! :D

I got my Mono from 7unite... and now I'm wondering... I think monobenzone.net or whatever it is actually gets the mono from china where I get it from... cheap and then sells it to you guys at a more expensive rate to make money themselves... since our creams are practically the same... not to mention, the people running that place must be getting it from somewhere.. and where better to get it, than china... cheapest place.

I will try the cream I have until it is finished.. and let you all know how I go with it and how it works...

Ok ladies, so far so good.. I have applied it twice mixed wit Eucrin cream and no side effects as of now. I am wishing to continue same way. I haven't apply any to my face because I have a very sensitive face skin. I am just going to a little while and see if I can mix it with anything else to make it easier on my face. HAPPY LIGHTNING GIRLS :)

Update: My skin is getting lighteror brighter as I should say. I was kind of down and out because last week to earlier this week my face was crinkly and burnt looking due to my skin wanting to peel. Well, my face peeled since then and my face and really my cheeks are getting lighter(yellower) again. I noticed on the sides of my face it's a nice cream color but too dramatic but lighter than my cheeks. No sign of my body lightening... my face is maybe 1-2 shades lighter since last week. Man, I am so happy that period was over. When I wrinkled up my face, it hurted and burned really bad when I apllied it. I find my ashanti color skin going from caramel to a more yellow less brown(but not high yellow,yet)... not white. YAY!! Anyone else's updated? spotted? Anyone?

Hey red diamond!

Girl you inspired me to get mono because I am african american girl who wants the gorgeous light skin! My color is like michelle williams of destinys child (best girl group ever) and I want a complexion like chris brown. My skin is retarded and very uneven. Im light in some areas, brown in others but face and nech is more of a dark brown. I hope and pray mono results are permanent for those who don't want to be white or fully depig! I actually reached my goal with the diana stalder products but it was very painfull, very expensive, and the results faded so quickly I was so freakin pissed! But it seems like your getting results girl and I hope I get it too!

HI weezing dear,

I hope the best for you also. I always was uncomfortable with my old skin color. Matter of fact, I think my original skin color was around Michellle W. Before I started my skin lightening quest. I know it's vain, but I just feel I look better ligher. It's just for my preference-not for anyone else. I feel like if you don't like something, you should change it. I feel you should pray about it and don't get greedy with applying it and you'll be good. I mean I looked at all the risks and was like well I have to start somewhere. I feel you though about uneven skin and just unhappy with it. HOPEFULLY, we can keep in touch. HAPPY SKIN L IGHTENENING!!

Well at first I was applying 2x day. Then my skin got burn so I tried to 1. Now that my skin is better I apply 3xs a day. I was my face in am. Mid-day, and pm. I also have oily skin so it helps lower my acne problems. :) It just depends if my skin is sensitive that day. Do you experience any days where you skin can't take it and some days it can?

I would just be happy to be one color no matter what it was my color before the glycolic peel , close to janet jackson but I had to let my whole face get darker to sort of blend the burnt parts. While the rest of my body is light but I still have hope. But I have learned that if you don't use everyday or every other day it will start to darken back. Which I don't understand if this is a depigmentating product, tell me what you think. Will you stay that way. Not using everyday I have notice that my neck has turn back brown but not as dark as it was so maybe I'm doing it theright way it just takes to long. If we can maintain for 21 days I think we have it made. Hang in their I hope we all make it to our desired look to then teach others. Please forgive for going off on that lady orman the other day. I know I will be punish the Lord has been too good to me for me to fail my test

I understand. It doesn't matter to you what color you get as long as it is even. I'm sorry that you got burnt from that peel. Did it do any good? I can relate to that because mono itself peels the skin and before it peels causes one to look burnt/darker. It was horrible. My face was ultra-sensitive to everything. I'm not a scientist or anything but I am going to school to become a pharmacist so I am giving you opinion and not anything a doctor would tell your but With the if not used everyday or every other day= dark, I figure that since it is a depigmentating product, when its in contact with the skin mono is constantly trying to fight off the color in the skin. So whenever you take a break from it delays that depigment process. It's advised to use it religiously to get the results. The reason you get dark when using mono is because whenever your skin gets lighter, the cells are like" this isn't natural" so it causes the melanin to come back and/or get darker.

I'm using 20%. I Felt anything higher would make the risks higher. For me, My skin got lighter within 1-2 week(s) frame. BUt due to peeliing it got darker.That lasted a while I thinkg. But now it's getting lighter. So far I've been using it for like a month going on 5 weeks.

Hi simonek,

I don't blame you for dropping fair&white. Did f&w work for you ? Well I tried it and it burned my face, made it darker but itdidnt peel my face to make me lighter. I guess my skin just never did well with hydroquinone. I need to tell you that you can experience burning and looking burnt like I did. But it causes u to peel such causes lightening. I advise you to , of you haven't already, to stop using f&w like a week on advance to using mono. Since your waiting for the mono to bE shipped to you just discontinue the use. I have a feeling that hq wit the mix of mono would cause hella burning. Yea, I always dreamed of light yellow skin. Since my skin was brown I never tan/burn but I get darker so quick when I went outside. It was depressing LOL . So it sounds like mono will do you good. Good luck babes.

Hey ReDdIAMOND YOU KNOW YOU MY GIRL RIGHT LOL

SO SHOULD I USE AN EXFOLIATING SOAP BEFORE APPLYING MONO?

WHAT IS THE SIZE OF THE JAR OF MONO YOU HAVE?

And yo knoe you my son(not literally but term of affection such as friend, sorry it's southern) lol Yes, I would use an exfiliating soap. It will help with the penetration of the mono. Just be careful not to go hay wire and scrub your skin off. It would cause more burning and irritation. I ordered a 4 oz jar because I was cheap . J/k I order a 4 oz first to see if it works. So far so good so I ordered another 4 oz. So now I have an 8 oz of mono!:cool:

@ simonek... I was just making sure you wasn't still using it because it could spark up a reaction with mono. It's good you stopped a while a go.

Red Diamong I'm a girl and when I said you were my girl I meant like homegirls or best friends lol

But anyway


I just got finnsih chatting with this girl on yim who got bad results from mono. She had a complexion like whitney houston! When she first started using it, the result ere excellent ( I seen the pics). Her skin was slowly but gracefully changing from dark too light. She used it for 4 months no stop and the results were beyond good but she told me she stopped because she was getting too light and she reached her goal.

2 months later she started to get dark brown spots on her shoulder and it was spreading like wild fire. The spots coverd both her shoulders and her upper back area. Then the spots formed on her left arm. She orderd more and the spots faded but then the spotscame back faster, bigger and darker. Omg girl if you see how she looks now you will gag! I feel so sorry for her! Her face and nech is still light but the rest of her body is ghastly. She's coverd in brown and white spots.

So girl think twice!

I was so ready to buy it but I'm not. Instead I'm getting BENZYLARBUTIN because a friend of mine used it and she looks gorgeous! Gorgeous lightskin in 2 months and she was a tad bit darker than me.

To be honest, I think if you are using mono and stop using it then you will get darker. I know it's messed up, huh? IF your not depigged the skin comes back. Even when you get your desired color, you need to use it so it can keep it.

It depends what you mix the cream with. It comes in powder form. If the cream does not burn you skin and dose not peel your skin it is not benoquin or monobenzone

It could be that since I was already burned from a chemical peel, maybe thatswhy its not peelin my skin.I am going to see if I could get a chemist to test this benoquin to see if its real since it is a prescription I would think so. But I am also going to try this somewhere that hasn't been burned, just to see the out come. I will be e-mailing you for the price of yours.hope you live in the states. And can you sell samples

Hello Ladies,
Back for some updates
SO FAR SO GOOD, I have been using it twice a day and noticed dramatic changes during the first week of use, afterward my skin got a little darker and kind of dry " which is not normally like that" I have started to use pure Vitamin E oil and that helped me a lot. Anyway, my skin is started to get lighter again and I am still going on... I decided to close my eyes and ears and continue using it without reading these this encouraging stories.. I took the risk already and that's enough for me

I apply it all over my body 2 times a day... so that is probably why it goes so quickly... but I find it works the best doing it that way...

Hi everyone,

I also ordered from the canadians and have been using their product for about 2 months now, and yes the cream is a little bit clumpy but it works and that's all that matters to me, here are my updates, my face lightened within the first two weeks of using the product, ohh I was so excited then my face repigged aggresivly my doctor said it was because of the melozytes being killed by the mono and the body will respond by producing more melocytes to accommodate for the initial loss so then I became darker than when I started, 3 weeks later my face is beginning to lighten with a few streaks here and their. Moving on my neck and chest, arms are high yellow with spots it llooks like the model stacie dash's skin.

So I have stopped using mono on those regions of my body and now I am focusing my attention on the areas of the body that reqire the mono, I have moved up to using 40% on my legs back and face so they can catch up with my high yellow neck and chest.

Once these areas catch up I will then post some pics.

Well i think im going to order mono from .net. it seems more affordable than BA from herbal inn. Which ive been using for 1.5 months, with great results. But i want something more permanent.
This post has been edited from 3 months to 1.5 months due to moi me exposing this posters contradictory views.

Hey everyone

So my mono is going well I have been using the 40% for about a week now it burns for a few minutes after application but I am beginning to peel quit nicely, I can't wait for my face to catch up with my high yellow neck and ars, and I am so happy that my neck and arms have a nice yellow undertone, so far so good on this mono journey.

Happy whitening

Hey guys,

Well this is going to sound like a stupid question, but do you wax or shave the area to get the best results, because I wax everywhere but I'm scared to apply it to those areas, so should I let the hair grow and then aply the mono around the hair or not, how are you guys doing it.

lighterrr

RedDiamond
Jul 25, 2008, 10:57 AM
I don't know... maybe I should wax but do you wax it yourself or let some one else do it? What kind of wax? I apply it on that area hair n all... lol. Sorry for the too much information. I know if I would shave it, it would be like bumpy for in grown hair so I might try waxing. You know? I can imagine that if it would bare it would be easier for penetration.

lighterrr
Jul 26, 2008, 04:46 AM
Hey

Ohhh no I don't wax myself to scary, I have someone else do it for me, so I think I will start applying it to that region of my body and see how it goes maybe ill start with the 20% and see how it goes.
Ohh and I so need so advice my neck and chest have responded so well to the mono only problem is the area around my nipple is significantly darker than the surronding skin. Do I have to use mono their also and will it just be white, like I can't imagine having a white nipple that is so not normal, what are you guys doing about this area of the body.

I hope this post is not to personal or offenssive to anyone if it is I am sorry but I just need some advice

Hi guys,
That was too infomative... again I need to start from the beginning... Is it good to use in those private areas also, since anything you apply it there will be absorbed internally which I am really scared because of the serious impacts during sex or pregnancy.
But my skin looks very dark from my innner thighs to vagina! Any suggestions... Is there any way to get rid of dark there.

Hey sususu
Have you tried using mono on those areas keep in mind it will turn the area white. Or try HQ at a higher percentage, cream like clearliss and fair and white usually contain about 10-20% HQ and their pretty effective, except the results are not permanent.

Or maybe they're celibate?

Or maybe they have sex with their underwear on, so not to expose their genitals?

True vicky, but why would someone want to have beautiful light skin everywhere, with pink nipples only to have brown genitals? To me it doesn't make any sense. If someone is going to lighten their entire body and be fair, why skip the genitals? Why not look beautiful all over?:confused:

Because my skin feels like its on fire for a few minutes after I apply sunscreen over the mono.

Girls, I am serious... lol. My face be burning up. I use Neutrogena: Ultrasheer: dry touch sunblack. SPF:70 wuth helioplex. I find it burns just a bad/worse as the mono itself. What I do is apply a layer with just mono. THen I mix mono with sunscreen and apply it. But lately I just apply mono then a layer of sunscreen which is probably smarter. I find with this sunscreen I apply it ans through out the day I get darker but when I get home at night and wash it off then I am still yellow as I was in the morning.

Im so confused as to what to do guys. My 20% cream still hasn't arrived so I've been using the 5% I bought for my face on my entire body and now it is low. When the 20% finally gets here I don't want to use it for my face. Im so confused on whether to buy more 5% when my second order hasn't even arrived. I wrote the vendor, its been 15 days today! I don't know what to do.

Hi lighterr, do you think if I stop using what I have, and wait till the other product comes I will repig? I have to conserve this 5% cream, I just don't want to use 20% on my face. Its too delicut.

RedDiamond
Aug 5, 2008, 10:02 AM
This is just a thought but you can add some lotion to the amount if you are going to use it one your face to mix it down from 20% to something not as strong? Maybe you can do this while waiting for your next order of 5% if you want to order it. This way you can have some contact with mono your face won't repig because of no access to mono. You see what I am saying? Tell me what you think.

Missj28
Aug 5, 2008, 10:07 AM
Yes that is a good idea Red, thank you! How will I determine the percentage it will go down too? How much lotion do I add to, what amount of 20% because I don't want to reduce the potency of the entire jar.

RedDiamond
Aug 5, 2008, 10:16 AM
Well, I would suggest you take some of the 20% and place it in the 5% jar.(I hope you didnt/dont throw it away lol) PLace how ever much you think you will need for your face until you buy some more 5%. And mix the amount of 20% you placed into the 5% jar. I guess you can mix it to how every much you want. I don't know the exact measurements but since its for you face you can add as much as you think will dilute it to the strength you want. That way you can have 20% for you body and about than 5-15% for you face. :)

desikudi,

Have you tried any sort of lightening product before? It may be preferable for you, as you are fairly light to use something a little less inconsistent as mono.

As I am sure you have read, some people have found it very difficult getting hold of the mono and finding a realiable and trustworthy supplier. In addition to this, the results have not always been that great. Unless you have tried other things before and have not found anything that works for you, then I would only try mono as a last resort. Just my opinion...

Thanks maharani...

Yeah I have just started using hydroquninoe 4% and I mix it daily with a little bit of lotion and put it on my face... its been only a week so I can't tell the difference... thnx for the advice though... my skin isn't fair , its kind of medium tone as I have learnt to take care of it since 2-3 yrs as I was very tanned before and never took care of my skin and it hit me real hard when my aunts and cousins wuld go on and on about how beautiful they look and how bad I look , and every time any guy's family came to see me or meet me for marriage proposals then she will bring her kids as well there and put me down in front of evryone by praising her kids... so then it really hurt me and then I strted taking care of my skin... thnx for the help

Are you guys using mono ? Is it helping at all...

MAHARANI
Sep 25, 2008, 10:58 AM
I personally am not using mono for the reasons that I already stated. You might want to see how you get on with the HQ. At least it is more easily sourced, so you don't have to try really hard to find it, unlike mono.

As it's only been a week, you probably won't see anything as yet. A tip may be to try and use the HQ with some retin A product, which should help to speed up the results and can give the skin a real radiant look. Use it a couple of times a week at night. If your skin becomes sensitive to it, just reduce the usage.

You do have to make sure that you invest in good sun care products, to maintain your results and to protect your skin, which will be more sensitive due to the Hq and the retin A, if you decide to try it.

Thnks a lot... wht products can I get with retin -A in it... yeah I use HQ only once a day as I don't want my skin to react bad to heavy usage... lets see how it goes... I will use it for a month and see if it did any change...
