I have tried 2%hq (hydroquinone) don't think this will work thou I am black and my skin is quite resistant I am currently use 80%lactic acid peel twice a week I just started today I also rub clear essence vitamin c vanishing lotion and wear spf 50 sunscreen before I apply my make up as it is only my face that needs lightening my body is fine. I hear 4%hq will do it is this true and wear can I buy it for a good price. Also what about mono benzone
