    Will I get darker again?
    I'm just curious cause I'm in denial if I am getting darker or not, but I have lost a few shades and I haven't been use the Bio Cream + Oil for a while.

    Does you skin start to get darker if you stop using it? And I haven't been in the sun at all this summer so that can't be a reason why and If I did I only been in it for 30 minutes and used 70+ SPF.


    Thanks!

    Well, whenever I stop using the bio claire my complextion gose back darker quick. Or if use it only once a day instead of twice daily my lightening either slows down. Even though I stayed away from the sun and used a strong sunblock. Most lighteners are permanent. But, I know there are some things that are permanent, I just have to figure out what they are... and not mono, I want to maintain a light goldn color.

    If you were only out in the sun once for thirty minutes, and you used 70+, then that's your problem right there!! If you want to get darker, then use only 30+, and stay outside for longer than thirty minutes! If you want to get tan fast, try using tanning oil!:cool:

    I agree. It's learning how to properly balance and maintain... speaking of maintain, I haven't used the bio claire and black soap in the past 2 days and I think I'm like 2 shades darker. But, I'm still using sunblock and I'll have to start back first thing tonight.

    Unfortunately, I'm still using the rest of my bio claire and using black soap since it's fairly cheap. I don't know what to use next, so I'm still searching. Before that I was using makari night cream and DS papaya kojic soap/L-glutathione soap, it lightened me really light but it costs so much after awhile.

    What are you using, any success?

    I was just wondering why you feel the need to lighten you skin? I think dark skin is beautiful.

    It's funny light skinned people always want to be dark and dark skinned people always want to be light.

    Let me know what you think of the ingredients, There is one that the owner of the store told me about that is all natural. I choose this one because it is anti marks and it has aloe in it. The owner and I'm not sure who the lady was, but they say they both use the products and OMG there skin is flawless... Her skin is amazing. I'm going to stick with it for a while because it's a product that I can buy locally which saves on S&H.

    How is that my problem? 70+ SPF is very powerful I didn't get tanned one bit.

    Thanks So Sexy For the ingredients. I keep hearing good things about the Likas soap, so I might give it a try. So the active ingredients must be the fruit principle (AHA), vitamin B3 (niacinamide), and vitamin E (tocopherol). I wonder if it's sold in the local beauty stores or if I have to order it?

    :p I just noticed a flaw in my sentence, I left out a word. I was trying to say that most skin lighteners are Not permanent, only temporary... especially bio claire. Mono is permanent and completely will depig the skin.


    Danielnoahsmommy I agree with you, dark skin is just as beautiful. And if a person (whether light, medium, or dark) is happy with their shade then there is no need to change it. But if someone wants to change it to make them happy, so be it. Everyone's reasons aren't the same. My reason for the change is because I am treated differently.
