Ask Me Help Desk - Benzylarbutin or monobenzone how much should I use

Hello I'm afro-caribbean and for awhile now I've been thinking about lightning my skin just because mostly all of my family is like a light or dark carmel color.So out of everyone I look different and that's because of my moms genes I think but I'm still darker than.I have real uneven skin my friends always spot out a new color on my when their jokin .my neck is the color I would like to be but I'm scared of all this lightning cream

I've heard good reports about benzylarbutin but I don't know if I should use 20% or 5% I go to college in September so I would like it to take affect before then so what should I use

That's me with the hat and that's my cause she is prob the darkest that my family line has other then me id like to be her color but if not id like to just be all one tone.cause my forehead and neck is lighter then my cheek.and on my body it's a mess of skin tones

I am using Herbalinn cream which has the benzylarbutin and so far it has worked, I honestly want to be lighter by using a stronger percent but what's stopping is me is I do not know how to mix that too so I just use thicker layer of the herbalinn cream until someone posts formulas and experience.

If you want formulas and mixing advice, try:

DEPIG.forumup.com :: Index

Otherwise, just mix it up as strong as you can and spread evenly, use it day and night until you get the results you want.

You do have to keep using it for the rest of your life if you want to STAY the lighter colour, though. There are no instructions on the package (!) but you would follow the general directions you can get on online forums about monobenzone.

Could you mix monobenzone with benzylarbutin together?
