    Bio Claire turns acne into black spots!
    At first I didn't want to believe it but it is! Every time I get a new bump its red then after a day or two, its turns into a black spot and now both of my cheeks have all these little black marks on it!

    IM SO FREAKIN MAD BECAUSE BIO CLAIRE LOTION GOT ME SO FREAKIN LIGHT AND NOW ITS MESSING MY FACE UP! THIS FREAKIN SUCKS! I was really close to the complexion I wanted and now I have black marks on my face!

    What should I do?? But I don't want to stop using Bio Claire lotion

    Ive always had bumps but they come and they go just like any other teenager with very mild acne. But being as though there's oil in Bio Cliare products, I knew I would see them a lot more often. My mother said there black heads so Im going to continue using Bio Claire but I'm not going to use the soap on my face I have to search for a good black head remover.

    Do you any good ones?

    If they are blackheads, a gentle exfoliator should also help. I have never personally liked the thought of Bio claire on the face, so go carefully. When you do get your blackhead extractor or if you just use your hands, just be gentle and don't force it or you could make the situation worse. And Make sure that your hands are very clean before starting and that you have opened your pores with a gentle steam or a warm flannel.

    Thanks MAHARANI your awesome!

    I purchased Neutrogena blackhead eliminating daily wash and I was scared to use it because there is that acid for acne in it and I thought it would darken my face but it made my face glow and now my grandmother called me out for looking light. She said "your not as dark as you used to be"

    Hey weezing neutrogena is a good product. You can also use the mint juliet mask by queen helen I think that's the name it got rid of my black heads I use to have them on my nose

    I just want to say that funkymommy's customer service is awesome. I sent them a question today and got the answer today

    Here's what I sent
    Ive been using a product called Bio Claire. I got very good and fast results but it backfired. I got acne and it turned black and like a dummy, I continued using it and I got black spots everywhere on my face and couple spots on my neck. The back of my knees are really really light and now I don't want people to see the back of my legs. I also got really blotchy light patches on my back. And above my butt I have huge light patch! Apart of my still wants to use because my butt and stomach got light but if I continue I don't know what will happen. I used to be dark really dark and now I am a light caremel brown. I decided to stop using Bio Cliare and my question is if I take 4 Gluta C capsules a day, will It help maintain my light complexion, get rid of the dark spots, and make my complexion even and clear. I did some research and Gluta C is definantly legit.

    Also If I was to order, could you put something else besides funky mommy on the box that the pils will be shipped in. like Healthy Vitimin or something.

    Here's what they sent

    2/8/2009 2:38:09 PM I'm not familiar with Bio Claire and what it does, but anything with such quick results will have to make you wonder.
    We do not recommend 4 capsules as the dietary dosage of Gluta-C is 1-2 caps a day. It is on your own discretion to use 4 capsule/day. Regasrdless of the dosage, Gluta-C's job is to even out uneven skintone, clear out acne, lighten scars, get youthful skin and remove toxin out of your system.
    We put Vitamin Supplement on the description. Regards.

    weezing I got the light patch on the back of my knees to. In fact it looked almost white. However it was tender and it was much lighter than the surrounding area. I think this happens as the cream gets really absorbed here as we bend the knee area.
