    What are the best skin lightening products you ever tried?
    Everyone feel free to share your experiences of the best skin lightening products you ever tried... Also yes I know that the same products do not work for everyone but chances are that if everyone shares the best skin lightening products they ever tried.You could then try it yourself and you never know it might work for you also.I would like to also give a shout out to Dessamal becase he/she inspired this thread... LOL

    Otentika Hypercreme Extratone B

    It was expensive but kind of worked.

    I stopped because a girl told me the B stands for betamethasone! :(

    Betamethazone is a steroid right...

    Yeah, that scared me because Otentika says that product only contains natural ingredients like shea butter. The cream is peculiarly thick and pure white and greazy, like tube of betamethasone is. Except extratone B comes in a jar.

    Bought it from Naturefina. Threw it out!

    Golden Boy did you contact Otentika company and question them about that? Anyone tried Hypercreme?

    Well, the most success and lightening I had was with makari, 3-3.5 shades I'm guessing. It brought me to about Tyra's shade. It has been some time since I used them because it also lightened my pockets. My before/after picts are somewhere buried around here. I didn't have as many outbreaks, one a bump or two once in a while because I was also using papaya kojic soap 2x daily and St. Ives Apricot scrub 2-3x weekly, oh and the tooth paste when a bump came.

    I thought about purchasing some makari but I am kind of scared because my skin is like extremely acne prone so I need some advice... Goldengirl what do you think?

    On all of the other threads,some people said that makari is definitely not for people with acne prone skin... is this true?

    It can cause serious outbreaks and clogged pores most likely use to most of their oils being are hydrogenated, parabens, silicones, and the caviar crème containing caviar which is for much mature and very dry skin; as caviar does not lighten but hydrates. I have acne prone oily skin so I did get a bump or 2 here and there and they weren't small. But, I did not get an outbreak as many others have.
