    The Best Product That You Stuck to the LONGEST?
    IIt sounds like nothing works long enough to stick with it,

    Can anyone tell me the Lightening product they've stuck to the longest (positively), for how long has it been?

    I would say the makari night crème for about 5 months along with DS papaya kojic soap. It had made me about 3-3.5 shade lighter, my goal was to reach 4-5 shades lighter but it only made me but so light. So, I just used the rest to maintain with 3x weekly which worked well. But, I had to stop using them eventually because it was so costly and I was using it to lighten my arms and hands as well as the upper body. I think what I could have done with al that cash I had spent, I could have went on a cruise or shopping spree.

    Lolz okay lets save up for our trip to Iceland, sis! :)

    Yeahhh, Makari is too hhigh-end priced for the long-term for just the mediocre results everyone says it give. Then there's the spots/breakouts one's got to put up. Aside from the fishyness (caviar) I don't even see ingredients in their ingredients list that justify the price.

    Absent other "committed" product recommendations I guess the best long term cost-effective is to make one's own out of natural ingredients indeed.

    Lol sorry about the goofin around.

    So so far looks like Makari is one of the only thing people tend to go back to over the years?

    Overall it seems like people try most products just once (purchase) then don't go back...

    For me there have been others but they have either disappeared or are not available at the moment.

    I was using rosa skin care for a while and that gave real good lightning but it has been out of stock for several months and there is no response from their customer service. Have found it really difficult to find anyone else who has tried it. I think only one person came forward saying they had tried it as well.

    I wonder why this has happened? Is it the same as "Bella Rosa Skincare" or is it something different?

    I was thinking that someone had rumbled that they were including something that they had not mentioned, especially as the company state they do not use any harmful ingredients, but that's never stopped a company from trading. I mean, bio claire have bee getting away with HQ free, when it has been mentioned that a small quantity is included.

    All I know is that it definitely worked for me but have been unable to get hold of it for more than a year.

    I don't like shared testimonies :mad:
    Watching a movie right now but I could probably find more.
    I think rosaskincare copied from civantskincare site.
    Who knows:confused:

    Rosaskincare testimonials:
    I had uneven colors on my skin. I am very self conscious about this and my confidence is low. I have been using the solution for about 2 weeks now and all I can say is WOW! This stuff works great! Not only is my skin tone more even, but the rest of my skin is smooth and brighter. It gave me confidence to put my best face forward and not worry about what I look like constantly.

    Meladerm testimonial:

    After getting my acne prone skin under control I had dark hyper-pigmentation marks on my face. I am a medium brown skin woman, so when I would get acne the marks they left behind were a lot darker then my normal skin color. I was very self conscious about this and my confidence was low. I have been using the cream for about 3 weeks now and all I can say is WOW! This stuff works great! The dark brown spots that not even make-up could hide are almost gone to the point where I can almost not wear make-up and if I do, the marks are well hidden. Not only are the marks gone, but the rest of my skin is smooth and brighter. I never knew what Brighter skin meant until now. All of this with NO irritation or side effects. Your product delivers!

    Nikkicute, you should be a detective LOL

    Lol Thanks! :D

    The thing is civantskincare (first came out as whiterskin.com and a totally different cream before turning into Meladerm) had a lot of testimonials that were taken from other sites. I didn't know who copied who so that's why I did not order from them.

    Never heard of rosaskincare.

    Yeah Nikki the detective. Busted!
    But, that's really weird these different skin lightening sites copying and pasting from other skin lightening sites. But if the product works, then there's no reason for fake testimonials. The real ones would come forth.
