Okay.. its been a little over a month since I've started using Hydroquinone 4% and Retin a 0.1%. So far no lightening but I'm having peeling from the RA. The thing was.. before a couple of days ago... I used Hydroquinone only at night.. and RA every other night.. but then I read that you have to use Hydroquinone twice a day to see results.. so I've started doing that about 4 days ago.. but I totally forgot to use it today in the morning -facepalm-. Will that effect my lightening?

Does anyone have any tips and advice? I'm lightening from my face down to my genitals. I'm leaving my legs alone for now.

BTW.. I'm pakistani with medium brown skin not dark and not light.. my goal is to lighten about 3-4 shades.
