    Body Lightening
    Hi,
    I don't want to sound negative about this; but, if body lightening products really worked, don't you think Michael Jackson (the singer) would have bought the company??
    Ever thought of seeing a doctor and getting his/her opinion??
    Best wishes,
    fredg

    Thanks guys,

    I hear what you guys are saying. I don't want the ''micheal jackson'' look I just want to be afew shades lighter like... Christina Milian's complexion. Surely they most be something that works.

    Sharon1 -- I've heard about whiterskin since I'm a member of brightskin.com too I thought is was for the face only? I intend to try it for my face...

    Anybody recommend something

    Hi Lady C,

    I am Frenchie and I actually using a body lotion called skin light. It contains hydroquinone but it works very well.

    I am using this lotion and I enjoy it. I am very interested by taking pills but I don't know if I will be able to take pills 3 times a day (taking pills is something I hate).

    Bye.

    Hi Amisha,

    I noticed a big difference since I used skin light. I use the lotion twice a day after showered. People noticed that my skin color lighten, I am pretty happy about the cream.

    Hey Lady C,

    I do not think that skin light is unless, maybe it's depends on skins. If you use it twice a day it will work.

    Bye Ladies.

    I’ve been searching and searching and searching!! I can’t seem to find anything.

    Most of the effective products are very expensive and sold in very small-tiny containers. Definitely not enough for the whole body

    I've tried all the body creams and nothing works. Now I just use AHA lotions and glycolic soap. Exfoliating works and avoiding sun.

    Hi I think it is hard to use a cream on your body for the rest of your life couse melanine amount will not change for ever and when you stop using it your old skin will be back am I right??

    I tried many many creams & lotions with out that big change
    Now I try a yeast pill and I notice a deffrent in just 2 weeks
    Don`t forget to scrub your skin weekly to remove the old one


    Hi unis

    Did you try it ?

    Godiva has been very kind to me that I get good results from it... but since I have been selling it, I know some of the experience of other and I have read some too and some claim not to have a good result from it that it does not give result as fast as it promise, well even say that they did not get result at all and they get allergic but so far for me I am having good results so I continue using it specially the lotion hehe...

    And hey I the pills results isn't permanent too... you have to maintain it by taking a lower dose of l-gluathathione to maintain the color you have achieved. But yes it do work good when you get the right dosage and vitamin c with it...

    When it comes to creams and lotions I think you will not get back to your dark skin if you maintain by using soap because whitening soap doesn't not tend to whiten you but just maintain your skin color unlike ordinary soap that let your skin darker, also by not exposing your skin to the sun as much as possible and getting the right amount of protection from sun block your skin won't turn back that much... since our body produces melanin that makes us darker if the skin went under stress to protect it that's why as you can see skin exposed to the sun is always the one darker and those hidden skin parts that tend to rub with each other :)

    When you are trying to achieve whitening you have to take into consideration the following: (1) products do work if you have the patience & time for them. Not all products work but some do. (2) whitening the entire body, I think has to start from within because if you are depending only on soaps & lotions, there are spots you will likely miss out which can make your skin whiter but uneven toned.So, I guess the best option here would be to use lighteners simultaneously. Use a whitening soap, lotion, vitamins, etc. I just came across PH 338. Says that a lot of actresses has beed using it since 1999. Anybody here tried them?

    Well lady c, since I am a seller od l-gluthathione then I would definitely say that it is best to get from me right :D hehehe

    And yes dimples :) lots of celebrities has been using this japan PH 338 l-glutathion pills... it's a glutathione pills too, lots of celebrities has been taking them because it is what dr. calayan has been selling... and we know, dr. calayan is one of the top dermatologist in the country (Philippines) but is that its only 100mg of l-gluthathione and a normal weight person in order to get a whitening effect should tale around 2000mg to 3000mg depending to the person's weight... and double the dosage of vitamin C...

    Purchase them from you? No offence but I'm a little skeptical about that. Do u have your own business firm? Something I can buy via a service system?
