Hello sara_uk. You are right that Benoquin (monobenzone) is quite strong; however, I have lady friends in Canada who swear by the product, and suggested I use it. Currently, during the winter months, I use natural lemon and sugar to exfoliate and lighten my skin, but the results have to be maintained. With Benoquin, the results are permanent but worth it, if you follow a steady topical regimen--and stop using Benoquin when you reach your desired shade. I just recently purchased the cream when I was in Canada, and am eager to get started using it. As far as the Glutathione tablets (for skin whitening) supplement this with an equal dose of vitamin C since vitamin C prevents Glutathione from oxidizing (breaking down). The recommended dose of Glutathione is anywhere from 500-1500mg, depending on your weight. As an aside, Glutathione is a protein that is also produced naturally by our bodies to help prevent degredation at the cellular level (cell destruction). Unfortunately, as we age, our production of Glutathione decreases... . Visit
Wikipedia for information on glutathione. I would not reccomend purchasing glutathione preparations from the web; many of those concoctions contain ingredients that, when taken in large doses, ex: Vitamin A and Vitamin E, can prove toxic! even fatal. Visit a reputable vitamin store in your area, and purchase REDUCED glutathione and take it in combination with an equal dose of vitamin C--this is, of course, in accordance with your weight, so you have to do the math. Research the reccommended dosage for normal cell maintenance, and then double that dose per 100 pounds of weight (if you use the metric system you will have to calculate in kilograms). The standard reccomendations are from 500mg-to 1500mg to see skin whitening results. Of course, they don't tell you on these: by-our-pills websites that you also have to use a skin lightening topical solution in conjunction with this oral treatment--you don't see results when used alone...go figure. Glutathione is also most effective when taken with Alpha Lipoic Acid--again visit
Wikipedia keyword Alpha Lipoic Acid to learn more about this--the research will give you the opportunity to consider if the "pill"(s) option is the best and necessary option for you--I would say skip it, but it's entirely up to you. After using Benoquin for a short time, I think you will like the results (my two associates have nice, fair complexions) although I, personally, prefer a healthy tanned color--not brown, not pale. Here is where you can buy legitimate Benoquin (monobenzone) cream
Canadian Pharmacy Online - Canada Pharmacy Offers Discount Prescription Drugs Canada Drugstore - CanadaDrugs.com type in the search field Benoquin (monobenzone),and you can purchase from there. Note: Benoquin (monobenzone) is sold over the counter legally in Canada, unlike the United States. Take care, and safe lightening.
P.S.---stay away from ALL products containing Hydroquinone. And use Neutrogena Ultra Sheer Dry-Touch sunblock SPF 55 when exposed to the sun.
