    Other than Bio Claire...
    Since all this safety hazards going on with Bioclaire I want to soon stop, but do you guys know any other products that are safe and effective as Bioclaire?

    Hey Klass, I will copy and paste my message that I had posted on another thread:

    "Retin-A (aka tretinoin) will help to lighten your acne scars and clear your acne. It's the acid form from vitamin A, so you will have alot of peeling and eventually you'll begin to see difference. Also AHA peels (glycolic or lactic are good) help with this as well, you can start off with a low concentration and slowly increase as you build tolerance.

    Using a good exfoliating soap is also a plus, like Likas papaya soap or Diana Stalder papaya kojic soap. Or if you want to use something milder, authenic black soap will help to lighten acne spots. The soap really isnt "black, but it is different shades of brown and has a softer texture. Fake black soap is dyed black and is hard, not effective and made my skin breakout.

    A good skin lightener will help the spots to lighten well. I have heard good reviews from the Fair & White Exclusive Gel Crème Whitenizer (it contains Hq), 55H+ CRISTALINE Strong Lightening Fine Glycerin, Nadinola (Hq), to name a name a few and are not overpriced. If you are just interested in lightening the spots then you can try just applying the product to the dark areas. Right now I'm trying a different regimine, but if it doesn't work then I'll switch to these.

    Be sure to always use a good sunblock high in spf at all times and reapply when necessary. I like the Neutrogena spf 70 and the spf 85."

    Thanks so much for the advice Goldern_Girl! Yeah the Acne scars are everywhere on my face. Thank god for Zenmed Acne Scar Kit and it's working really well.

    Fair & White seems like a good option I might consider to get it next and I've been hearing about the Cristaline so might consider that to.

    Thanks!

    Yeah, I'm also considering using the fair & white exclusive gel Crème whitenizer and the chrystalline glycerine. I found that the chrystalline is also sold in larger ounces, I think it was a 16oz if I'm not mistaken. This will be good for covering large areas I'm thinking.

    -Arctostaphyious Uva-Ursi (Bearberry leaf extract): This is a good lightening ingredient, help kills bacteria, and also contains arbutin

    -PEG-40 Hydrogenated caster oil: derives from castor oil, used in cosmetics

    -Trideceth-9, Parfum (fragrance): of course fragrance

    -Morus bombycis (Mulberry root extract): Another good skin lightener that comes from
    Japan, from the dried skin of the mulberry roots.

    -Daucus Carota: Meaning "carrot seed oil", rich in vitamin A which keeps skin looking young.

    -Ascorbic Acid, Sodium Lactate: Ascorbic Acid is one of the forms of vitamin C and is an antioxidant, it helps produce collagen, helps to lighten, also good for wrinkles and sun damage.

    -Sodium Medtabisulfite: This is used to slow or prevent deterioration of the product.

    -Bencyl Alcohol: (benzyl) Can adjust the pH, help preserve, and also used as a solvent

    -Methychtoroisothiazolinone: A preservative that helps kill fungi, bacteria, and yeast. Considered an allergin and can cause brain and nerve damage.

    -Methylisothiazolinone: (aka "MIT") Used to help kill bacteria and is another preservative, it's also well-known to cause brain and nerve damage, and is toxic. Also used in soaps for hands and the dishes.

    These 2 websites I really like the most:

    Yea I just ordered the Christaline
    Like a few days ago I ordered the 16 oz. I also ordered another product that worked so well but the place I first ordered from stop selling it. But I did find it where I ordered the Christaline. I've been using Makari samples ( working great) but I'm going to let my face rest from the sample for a while and just do my facial washing until I receive the christaline and the other product. I'm really excited about finding my other product. I received major raves about my skin (are you turning white) If you've read other posts from myself about family statements being made that's the product I was using. Oh well Glad about the old product being found and curious about how this Christaline will work:rolleyes:.

    I see 55H+ but am confused as to which is the chrstalline glycerine.

    I actually see this 55H+ line when I go to my local black hair and beauty store in Finsbury Park.

    You will have to keep us updated with your results, so sexy.

    I was not able to find any in my local stores. Yes I will keep you updated. Hopefully it doesn't take long for products to come considering it's fairly close in NY

    So Sexy I hope the 55H+ Cristaline Glycerine works very well for you. So, is Top Skin Clear very reliable company? I will have to also check around again where I live to see if any stores sell it. It's good that they come in a large bottle too.

    It is possible that they could use much better preservatives like phenoxyethanol and several others that work very well if they would like to. I believe it is the 55H+ Cristaline Glycerine fine Eclaircissant Intense that So Sexy is trying, am I correct So Sexy or is it another product? It would also be great if many of their other products are very effective with lightening.

    Yes the line is 55h+. This is the only one so far that I have heard about with good results. But we will see!! The facial peel actually peels away dead skin. So I'm hoping with this along with the Christaline hopefully good results.
