Wow, with all this mono talk, no one has a reply. Thanks any way.

I would say to mix it with your favorite lotion/lotion of your choice. It doesn't really matter which kind just along as your satisfied with it. Good luck and keep us updated with your results. What's your color like now and what's your goal color?

Oh thank you RED

I was praying you would answer. I guess my color is maybe a little lighter than Rudy(from the cosby show). I want to be maybe about ashanti color. Well the real problem I have is with my outer arms, knees, and a few scars. I really just want to be one color.
I have chosen not to use mono on my face(scared) but I want to lighten my body. I have a good cream that I use already for my face and neck, but is comes in small jar and is not good for body lotion.
Thank you again and I will keep you posted.

You're welcome! I am happy that I could help you out. I feel like your goal is really reachable and you should be there in no time. I want you to take it slow and make sure you don't over do it because it could be more harm than good. Good luck and I can't wait to hear from you.

Yes I agree, I will take it slow. Quick questions if you don't mind. (any one my reply also)

1. Do you have any problems with apply it to your back?

2. Have you thought about applying hydrocortisone after appling the mono to help keep the itchiness redness and peeling at bay? (I do this now, and will also continue this when I get my mono)

TIA

No, I don't mind answering you questions.

1. No, I don't have any problems applying to my back. For some reason, I don't have any problems with doing anything. I just make sure I apply enough on all of it, sides and everything.

2. No, I haven't thought about hdrocortione. I haven't heard of it. But it sounds good to stop the burning and peeling.

I will keep you posted on using the hydrocortisone.

I can't wait to get my mono, I'm so excited I found you all and this site. I just knew that it had to be something out there that some of these black celebs were using to make their skin so light. I have been looking for years.

Have light day
