Last year I tried Makari and it seriously worked. After just a few days my face was noticeable lighter. I'm asian with Olive skin. I don't think everyone will have the same result as me being that my skin tends to get lighter and darker easier than others. The only thing that I noticed is that when I stopped using it my skin got darker faster. I'm not sure if there skin lightening cream makes your skin thinner which is why it may get darker easier when you stop using it. I guess if you don't mind consistently using it than this shouldn't be a problem. If you're worried about breaking out then use it every other day.
Well its over 6 months after I stopped using Makari and my complexion is back to its original tone. I was planning to order Makari again since it worked the first time around, but I was searching the net and found Meladerm. I just ordered it a few days ago. I read some of the reviews on here and there are a lot of good and bad comments regarding this product so I'm just wishing for the best. If it doesn't work after 2 weeks, I'll just return it(I think it money guarantee back within 30 days). I know it claims the result is not obvious until 4 weeks later but I know my skin well, if I don't see a difference at all within 2 weeks then the product is not for me.
Anyhow, I just want to share my experience and hope it could help someone who's trying to find a product that works. I got nauseated reading all the comments on here. Not sure what to believe. At least you know I'm not trying to sell anything cause I didn't mention one particular product. I'll be sure to update once I start the Meladerm
Let me know what your experience is with these two products. :)
