Don't use it. That stuff is HORRIBLE

I totally agree with Violaename when I say I beg to differ. Go away mariamarie.

Wow. That was really rude. I never said I was enjoying anything. Honestly I am a really sensitive person and before I do something that may hurt someone's feelings I always try to give them the...

I don't want to ignore him... Because as creepy as he's being to me, and as much as he is embarrassing me... I don't want to hurt his feelings if he IS really just being genuine... And I'm worried...

Honestly. I wouldn't risk your friendship with your friend... Chances are you're in high school or junior high? And those relationships USUALLY don't last... Don't risk a friendship over this... If...

It's too late. Last day to drop was last week. :( And I need this class to graduate. Do you think I am overreacting and reading too much into the situation?

So on the first day of class he was reading through the roster. And when he got to my name he started asking me a bunch of questions about my cultural background and where I am from and had like a 3...

Honey. Those pills do not work. You're wasting your money. No amount will make you lighter, unless it has some type of placebo effect.

I completely understand your frustration. I found myself trying to organize my classes around what time the sun will be the brightest, just so I can avoid those times. :( I see a lot of Asian women...

summerlight you should be more sensitive toward him/her. Also, happy.face... if you're using mono as a skin lightener... I suggest you reconsider. It's not a skin lightener. And shouldn't be used as...

To be fair... you really came off as someone who was marketing something...

I completely agree. I remember watching her in the Fresh Prince of Bel Air. She wasn't dark but she was definitely a brown shade. Now she's like high yellow super light. She's bleaching or doing skin...

... I'm done feeling sorry for people that use bio claire. I swear. They're always warned. Same with the people who use mono. Always warned. They do it anyway. Then come back here with some sob...

Honey. Please. Listen to me. Judging by your name "African Beauty" you have brown skin. Do NOT use mono. Listen to me. You will regret it. Mono is not for people with color. It's for people who...

No she's not saying negative things about my color. She tells me to be happy about the color I am. But she always does or says little things unintentionally that let me know she thinks lighter is...

Nope. If you go back to my old posts I've always used this picture and specifically Teairra Mari as a reference of where my skin color is:
...

I hate looking at pictures of me standing next to my mother because... She looks mixed... And I just look like I'm... Not her daughter...

(oh and guys too. Not just ladies lol.)

This is the first time in 7 years that I've felt comfortable enough in my own skin to go out in public without make up on! I'm telling you. Stay away from the steroid based creams. I've been off any...

People are so immature and so cruel. I just want you to realize that there is nothing wrong with your skin color. It is NOT ugly. In the slightest. In our culture white skin is constantly being...

I would stay away from mono if I were you.

Do not ever in your life touch or use Monobenzone. EVER. It will ruin your skin and leave you a spotty mess and you will NOT like it.

Susan... After reading this. You still have the nerve to try it? I don't even feel sorry for people like you. Lmfao.

It really did that me a while. It was more gradual if anything. I hadn't really realized that I had gotten so much lighter until looking back at pictures. I wouldn't expect dramatic results. And a...

Chuck. Get a life. You always come to this board every so often to start drama. Such a troll. I refuse to feed you. You'll be ignored from now on. Your real life must just be THAT pathetic. Oooooo...

Please don't ever use pills that claim they lighten skin. They don't work and often times they can be harmful.

I wouldn't do it. That's too much stress on your skin. Especially the skin on your face. It's way too fragile for that. I'd just use the Retin A. That alone in itself is going to lighten you one...

They-do-not-work. Thread closed.

You guys got me wanting to try makari now. Just on my body though. Damn you all! :/

I've never used Makari myself so I certainly don't have a personal testimony. But I do know that Golden Girl used it for some time and I believe she had great results but she stopped using it...

So my boyfriend is coming to meet my family officially in June... We have an old family picture hanging up in the kitchen. It's HUGE. You can't miss it... I'm dark in the picture... Really dark. What...

I'm not jealous... I would never want to be an obvious bleached color... I saw these two Caribbean women in the airport the other day who looked SO BLEACHED. I would hate for people to be able to...

I honestly don't like his new color. I think it looks ghostly. I think everyone looks good with a little bit of color in them. Like Alicia Keys and Sade are light but they're not just downright...

No. Don't waste your money.

Lol some of you crack me up. That's not my boyfriend in the picture. That's Tyrese Gibson. The singer/actor and also. SouthAfricaCute, what kind of black soap are you using? I tried black soap...

Hey girls/guys. I just pretty much made this thread so that we can all update each other on your routines or discuss daily incidents that we think that others may find interesting.

So basically...

It's not worth it honey. You won't like it in the long run. I wouldn't take the risk. If even for one or two weeks. That's just my opinion. You can do what you want.

Sorry. I have no idea. But I'm just trying to bump your thread up so maybe someone with answers can help you out.

Please don't use the bio claire honey. You'll be happy for like 3 or 4 weeks then you'll be scarred. Just keep searching for something that isn't harmful that will work for you. You have to be...

By no means is that me in the picture. Lol. And I would never post my pictures. Who wants to become the poster child for skin bleaching? Maybe when I get home I'll post a picture of the side of my...

Thanks Golden Girl! I've missed you! I'm going to be posting and frequenting this board often again. I've missed you all. :)

Wow! Someone asked if you were mixed? You must have been getting super light. And yeah. Who really does need reminding? And it's crazy how you still thought you were dark, but I COMPLETELY...

Oh m God! That's the worst! When someone stops you on the street to talk! And you don't want to be rude. And it's like their facing a direction where they don't get hit by the rays of the sun and...

Okay so I often get e-mails asking what I'm using on my skin, what is my routine, what color was I before, how long did it take me to lighten, etc.

Daily routine:
Morning - Wash face w/ dove...

Oh my goodness! You're just like me, I always cross the street. Or I'll literally speed walk to an area where I can walk in shade. I put sunblock on my body. But I like my skin to look flawless and...

imgorgeous. I don't think that he is trying to be selfish. I think that he is being very genuine and doesn't want others to make the same mistake that he did. Call him selfish if you like... But I...

Is anyone having a hard time avoiding the sun as spring time continues and summer quickly approaches? Some of my classes are during the afternoon, and I find it terribly hard to avoid the sun at...

I think that it is so crazy how we all just keep wanting to be just one shade lighter. And then just one more shade lighter. And so on. And so on. I kid you not, before I started lightening my skin,...

So recently. I was tagged in some old pictures on Facebook. And I couldn't believe the color difference. It's hard for me to believe that I was ever that dark. I guess I made a gradual transition...
