Hi, I am an asian woman, from the Philippines. For years I had spent thousands $ on hydroquinone, Godiva, Dermaline, Stalder, and Glutathione pills. They didn't really work. I found this forum last month and have been Gluta-C which made my skin fairer for about a week, then it stopped working and it finished.
I had also bought monobenzone 20% which I have been applying for about four weeks, over a thin layer retin-A cream. It burns a lot but after 2 weeks I noticed a difference and so did some others. My face looks a few shade lighter already. My problem is I am starting to get white streaks on my neck, and my mother is concerned. She gave me a cream for ringworm, but I think it is from the monobenzone. I am applying the monobenzone, retin-A all over my face neck arms and hands. Only my face is lightening so far. Should I be concerned about the streaks on my neck? I'm also worried that I am applying evenly but my neck, arms and hands look darker. I don't want the white streaks to spread. I want the even lightening I am getting on my face. Why is this happening and what can I do to get the same effect as on my face, everywhere?
