Just curious as to if anyone has been using amira magic cream for a while, with significant results.

I did read a thread where someone mentioned that it is not recommended to be used on the face.

Appreciate any responses.

No one using amira then ?

I used it on my face... it was OK but not good for dry skin and the desired results are not so quick it comes slowly but again not good on dry sensitive skin... it has something in it which makes your skin dry... and I'm looking for a lightener which is suitable for dry skin...

Be careful with rebound darkening. Once you start using it, you can't stop. If that's not a problem for you, use it.

I was using the amira magic cream for two years but I noticed that my skin in not as smooth as when I started to use it. I was actually happy with it at first because it was really good. But not long I also noticed a lot of black heads and I use the product this long because evrytime I want to stop it and use a new cream I always notice rashes on my face that's why I use it again because I thought that the new cream was causing it. Then two weeks ago I decided to really stop it for good and that's when my face get really dry and very, very, very itchy and it wrinkled my skin like old skin. I went to see my doctor and told me not to use it on my skin because it has a lot of ingredients to use it on the face or even on the skin. That's why I search for this product in the internet to find out a site where I can warn everyone not to use this product. My aunt also used this product for quite some time maybe two years as well and stopped it one month ago and I've learned that she also experienced the same thing. It was a blessing cause she found a cream to cure it. Now her face has cleared up and I'm also using the cream she's using now and it seems that my face is getting better but my skin is still dry and still itchy.

That makes sense... what do you use to prevent rebound darkeking though?

Hmmm... that Amira Magic Cream looks cheezy and sketchy. I took a look at it today, it looks like it was made in someone's bath tub and the labeling looks like a child made them. I read the ingredients and information on different site, and some stating that it contains Hq, if you don't mind using it. And some stating that it contains no Hq. I know tha there has been controversy that they do not disclose all of the ingredients, which may also help explain the bad side effects. A good lighteng crème isn't supposed to make you darker and patchy, nor make the skin like rubber.

What about MAKARI ?

I used it for one month , it lightend me one shade in one month, but its too much expensive, so I have diverted to sum cheaper way, :-P

I agree Blue, makari helped lighten me up fast too, and in a month there was a noticeable difference. But it is costly, especially when trying to lighten more than just your face. What do you think should be a good price for a quality lightener?
