I am in a dilemma.. I have lightened very well with Bio Claire(the lotion and oil)my whole body that is but my problem is my face,it just can't seem to get lighter its much darker than my body and very uneven.

Is there any lightening face creams/lotions/gels anyone of you can recommend for me that I can get at the beauty supply store?

I have tried

Movate
Neprosone gel
Nadinola

Thanks so much
P.S. I tried using the bio oil on my face but its not working.

That must be why
I used bioclaire on my face and it made it WHITE
So I would carry on using that with a sunscreen

But I don't know about good sunscreens do a Google search

As for sunblock I really like the Neutrogena spf 85 or 70, but spf 55 is good too and had prevented me from darkening and it's a good price,absorbs in my skin really well, and it feels really nice compared to a lot of the other sunblocks and sunscreens that I used before. And it doesn't really have much of a scent.

Have you tried using the bio clair on your face? For some I think it can be a bit strong but it worked for me. It lightened about a shade, then becan to lighten a bit unevenly, but within a week or 2 it even up really well.

I'm back using it again on my face. Before then I was using makari night cream 2x a day which also worked really good but cost too much so I had to stop and I got darker again. I'm not as light as I was last winter, but trying to to work back at it.

If your going to try it on your face then you have to be really careful as it is strong and some people have had bad experiences with putting it on their face. With me it took a couple of weeks until I noticed I was getting lighter. I just used the cream, but the lotion should work too, no need for the oil on your face though. Within about a week or 2 my face became really sensitive and it burned when I was rubbing it in, I was also using the diana stalder papaya kojic acid soap which is also strong because it worked like an exfoliator which made my skin more sensitive. I would think that putting the oil on the face would cause acne though, then again ltheres a lot of mineral oil is in bio claire.

You can try using your cream and oil mixture if you like, just be cautious because it is quite strong. I used it twice a day, but you can start using it once a day like at night and work your way up from there to twice a day within a week or 2. During the lightening process, my skin did start to lighten unevenly and then it evened out within a week or 2. Personally I don't believe bio claire is the best on the market dealing with safety reasons, but it's what I use for now because it's cheap and it works... at least until I find something that works just as good, safer, and affordable.

But, remember to use an exfoliator for the face and good sun block. I exfoliate 2-3 times a week and carry my sunblock with me in my purse. Also, if your skin starts to feel tender, try using a good moisturizer after applying the bio claire.
