Wow thanks for that recipe! I have been searching for a recipe to mix my powder all week. Does anyone know if mequinol can be mixed the same way?

According to Wikipedia, "Mequinol is a drug used in the treatment of liver spots". Vitiligo patients also use mequinol but it is under the brand name Solage. It is monomethyl ether of hydroquinone. Mequinol stops the action of chemicals in the skin that create pigmentation or darkening. It is suppose to be stronger than hydroquinoine but weaker than monobenzone. It is cheaper than monobenzone and really easy to get from the usa. I have 99% mequinol powder and I am going to mix it with arbutin and maybe some raw green papaya lotion or extract because green papaya can really help your skin exfoliate and lighten. I use the green papaya extract by Splash and it is great. Many Filipinos use papaya to lighten their skin and I think this will be great to add my mixture with the monobenzone also. I plan to start the mequinol on my face @ maybe 10% strength and the monobenzone on my body @ 20% to start with in November. I am too afraid to put the monobenzone on my face. I hope I see results within a month with these products.

Super Shallow,
Does your mono mix come out grainy? How are you crushing up the mono crystals in order for it to dissolve better in the alcohol?

I'm crushing up the mono with a few hot drops of water and mix it by a teaspoon and when I see that I'm getting small soft dough I add lotion and mix it all hard and slow.. I do it all in 4 oz jar.. no blender no mess no dirt no problems...
It's been 2 weeks and I'm using 5% only 1 time daily
I don't see any changes.. and I don't expect to get any for now.. I'm using small dosage just because I want my skin to get use to the mono
And then after month maybe two I will start with 20% 2 times daily...
By the way it burns like hell!. only in the face
I suggest you all.. take it easy and slow.. I think it's the best way to avoid from serious side effects

Super Shallow, good suggestions. I used 20% before although I saw result in a week but it burned and irritated my skin. I have to stop using it for a week or so. I will use 10% only on my body now. I'll try it on my face after a couple of month later. We all should start slow... Very good suggestion ! Thanks.

I lay off the mono for a few days.

mepk5, I got them all too. I also use hydrocortisone on the rash. I also stop mono for a week now. I use nail polish remover once a while, may be twice a month. Why ?
My skin is irrated for sure. I will try to get bacterial oiment too. Thanks.
