What are the ingredients of DS? I don't see a ingredients list anywhere. We should not use it if it has dangerious ingredients. Can anyone confirm and post the actual ingredients?

Mega blast from woe contains hydroquinone, HQ is very bad for health so I am not going to use it. NOWAY.

Some of the Fair & White Exclusive line doesn't have HQ and is good.

whitebutterfly, what color are you now are u yellow? And which producd has arbutin, and licorice?

[muna]

Hello Redimond, whitebutterfly is awesome, she helped me with DS and she was right, this product is really amazing, I am using it on my face and some parts on my body, I just love it on the face, all whitening products might lighten u up but not necessarily smooth the skin, the soaps are just amazing , I saw results very fast with the face stuff and the soap great for the body and the lightening lotions for spots and very reasonable prices, and I am sure it has no HQ , I know how that smells like, HQ is fast. If you want something fast you can try HQ and maintain with the other stuff like kojic or licorice , but really you will love DS
And there's this mono, every one is using it but we don't know how to get it , it looks like it gives drastic results if it is done right. Well, keep on searching and I will too, if I find the right mono I will let you know if you want to go for something drastic, I will check with doctor as well. God, lots of opinions but I am sure there is a safe way to go about it with an MD supervision, and this Glutathione, lovely said she's got it form a web site which she swears by, they sell it for $38 buck (good price) it's master of antioxidant, but not while pregnant according to my knowledge, something to look for, Hamid says GT to be taken with vitamin c and rosehip and rosehip oil is fantastic on the skin for scars and imperfections, I will find this elusive mono powder, there're talking about and keeping it secret but still talk about it , funny? will let know when I do, take care

I had some kind of peeling around the corners of my mouth but it's gone now but it's left darker skin behind. Is that normal? Will it lighten up?

[PunkChic]

The peeling stopped and left darker skin behind (weird). I'm using the whitening cream on it hopefully it will lighten up before christmas time!

I have ordered some black soap from southgain for my face and will use the papaya for my knees and elbows.

thank you so much... I am looking for something that will lighten/brighten me up. I want to being out the yellow undertones in my skin. I am african american with a skin color like ashanti(the singer), I mean I love my skin color its full of yellow tones but due to my years of acne I have spot and in even color. My color appears to be murky/dirty because its dark one place, light in another spot... discoloration. Don't get me wrong I love my skin but I want it to be one nice lighter color. I would love to try the peeling soap because that's the key to lightening the skin... but I need a promising skin lighener. Muna, It is hard to find monobenzene to a cetain extent... I know where to buy it but it seems to be risking my skin. Someone told me that it doesn't lighten but kill the skin color cells meaning you go from brown to pasty white-no in betweens. The skin could spot up and its all is permanent. But that person could be wrong. I'ce heard about Benzyl-arbutin and I'm trying it now , its only been a week. World of entertainment seems fishy, and if it does work that it just too much D^#$ money... lol. Plus I perfer to not use hq because it works but after while my skin starts to look sunburn and eww.. well any feedback and suggestions. Thank u both so much for posting back.

hi my name is aesha and i was told to use fair and white to clear up my dark spots caused by cheaper skin lightening creams and it works it has only been about 2 weeks and i can notice a difference. to see me before i started check out MySpace
and to see me today check out MySpace
i can tell it takes a while to work but it does it is supposed to change your complexion completely but i am only using a few products, not the entire line which will have greater effects.

That's what I want also. My head and mouth area is very dark while the rest of my face is quite light. I'd like it to be one even colour.
I've tried stillman's, arche and also palmers skin success even tone cream but none of them worked. I'm currently using DS. Just hope this will work!!

[ffazil2002]

DS products are safe. There is no hydroquinone. I can't really give you a complete answers for all the products because i haven't try it all. For their whitening ingredients - papain (papaya extract), kojic acid (mushroom extract), Licorice, arbutin, lactic acid, etc...but i didn't see any hydroquinone.

I am light-medium brown asian-indian. I was using bio-claire on my face and body since Aug 15. In 3-4 weeks it made me about 5 shades lighter and for body it took 7-8 weeks to make about 5 shade lighter. The problem started on face after 10 week of using, I got dark shade on my upper cheeks due to foundation I was using so I stopped using it and in 2-3 weeks, I went back to 3-4 shade darker( just 1 shade lighter than I started with). Although my body is same light as before(no darken effect on body). I started using bio claire again and again got 1-2 shade lighter but then again went darker. Now I am only 1 shade lighter than I began with but my bosy is about 4 shades lighter than my face.. it looks odd.
One of my friend is using fair and white exclusive on face for years without being darker(maintaining the lighten effect) and it has highter lighten effects.
I am thinking of DS products a try on my face as it has such nice review. My question is:
1. Will it make me dark again(with continuing using) like bio claire did?
2. How many shades it can lighten?
3. Is there any skin sensivity issue?

Hey WB
I've been using the soap and crème twice daily. It has slightly lightened up the dark marks. It is taking some time but improving.

[ralpheal345]

I guess with my cream (mega blast) the diane stalder is nothing to me. I use to use it and indeed it lightened, but nothing compared to the mega blast cream

Whatever. You must be a seller.
To prove you are not a seller take a picture of yourself holding up a piece of paper with askmehelpdesk written on it along with your before picture so I know you're the same person, then maybe I will believe you.

[PunkChic]

That will be very easy if really want to sell or earn money. Punkchic maybe she was right base on her skin- give her a break. Honestly, i hate sellers at this forum it confuses us users or searchers for the right product with good results on our skin.

I don't know what to believe. I have been on other skin lightening forums and sooo many people like ralpheal join the forums and get people to send them e-mails for their before and after pictures for WOE. It can't be a coincidence.
It upsets me to see these sellers try to sell us things that don't work not caring about what we want and that we end up wasting our hard earned money :( :confused:

[OneFlyyN3rd]

I ordered my DS kit about 3 weeks ago. I use the k soap twice a day along with the facial bleach cream on my face but I use the body lotion with the soap about once a day. I have experienced the burning and the peeling. I am so red on my chest and under my breast area. I haven't seen a hard core difference but my father says that my darker areas are lightening up. I'm a caramel brown complexion. I just want to be a ta bit lighter (my original complexion) and get these darker spots out of my face. Has any other African American been successful with these products? I read of one but she didn't have much success. I've been using the kit for like 3 weeks. I'm going to continue to use it until I run out and hopefully I'll have more to tell you guys!

This is the color that I am now

[1headphones1]

That's good to know that it worked n3rd..
I'm thinking of purchasing this product..
I've used several creams with no avail..

By the way..

Karen Denise Aubert is one of the finest women I've ever seen.
She's gorgeous.

[hopeful123]

I have been using a week now but no drastic results.but I started with the black soap so I ordered the papaya now to try that . By the way I am indian with ashanti's complexion and I get dark easily so I keep you guys posted. And for me nothing works .this is my last hope. Going on to week 2 hope I get beter results. By the way my skin is a lot smoother though.

Indeed she is!
I love her.
But back to the products...
Lol.

I can see a difference in my face.
I barely use to lotion because of the peeling
But the face cream is doing fine.
My dark areas are just about gone.
By the time I run out of the cream, they should be fine.
I plan on ordering some more.
I probably will still be using the same bottle of lotion though.
Lol

I have been reading the forum trying to figure out what's best to lighten up my skin. I read Whitebutterfly saying that he/she is black, then she said that she was Asian. So what guarantee is there that she is not the distributor of DS products?

I think skin lightening products work differently on everyone.

[PunkChic]

I've been using DS for ages now. Maybe 2 months I think? No drastic results. It has slightly lightened my skin. Think when it comes to lightening products, we should never really believe it when people say it is meant to lighten in one week or two. That's just total bull.

I am still using DS. It did lighten my skin slightly which means it is working, so with a little patience I will achieve the results I want. I'm not really dark skinned either.

[SugarBlush]

I just received the my kit today and today is the first day I used the papaya kojic soap and the black licorice soap. I have the bleaching lotion, the two soaps I just mentioned and the bleaching cream (purchased on eBay. All DS). I was born with fair skin and now I have darker skin due to the sun exposure. My hips are still fair though because I never go out with shorts. If I use ds, will it give me my original skin tone back, and fast? Say 2 weeks?:confused:
