    Does Fair & White Work?
    Hey everone:)
    I am interested in the Fair and White range. Does this product contain Mercury, Steroids or Hydroquinone:eek:? Because the site doesn't list any of the products ingridients.
    If u used this range for overall skin lightening or any other reason, pleez tel me hw your experience was and which product you used. Oh, and where you bought it (online)
    Thax:D

    Yes it does. Ive been using it now for about 3 months and am now 2 shades lighter. You have to use it like it says: twice daily for 2 weeks and you will see results. You should always use sunblock when going out in the daytime or else your face will get dark again. Fair and White contains hydroquinone. Recently my face has developed a reddish rash like look and its from the hydroquinone, that is one of its side affects in most people. The redness has almost dissapperd and now I'm taking a break from bleaching my face .

    Mzthang2260 can you tell me which products from the Fir&White line you were using that gave you success? How many shades did you lighten? I did hear good things about the Fair & White Exclusive Whitenizer Gel Crème.

    The fair and white cream from the original line(white). I never tried the gel.You can get it from your local beauty store. I have lightened about 2 shades. It really works I promise you. I just wish my face hadn't got so used to it cause I can't stand to see my face red.

    Mzthang2260, if you don't mind me asking, what race are u? How dark were you before using F&W? If possible can you describe a celebrity? Do all of the F&W products contain Hydroquinone because I live in South Africa and I don't think customs will allow this product in the country? Is there a safe online site I can purchase this product from?

    SH-18 skin lightening body lotion with a aha soap + I add half a tea spoon of hydroqiuone powder in it and shake it. It will make your skin peel like crazy for about 2 months and first your skin will peel and get smooth and even then it will start to get browner then a lighter brown .also it faded my stretch marks but I only use the aha soap in the summer I use a apricot seed hydroquione soap usually :)

    Tai can you tell me which brand of AHA soap and apricot seed hydroquione soap that you used, did you get better lightening with the aha soap in the summer?

    And what method did you use to melt the hydroquinone without it oxidizing and turning brown, what percentage of Hq did you use (4%, 5%etc.)?

    Which product of the fair & white did you used that gave you bad results? Sorry for the many questions :o

    My face is red because of the hydroquinone.It is a common result for a lot of people who use bleaching products containng HQ. Its like a reddish rash with small bumps. Since I stopped using it the bumps have dissappeared and the redness have gone done. 2 days ago I Bought a cream at the pharmacy to take care of the reddness from the rash. So my rash is cearing up. :D

    That is good that you were able to clear it up. Does the redness and rash ever fade even while your using it, if not which crème did you use to help the redness?

    Clear essence AHA soap for the face , Clear & Smooth AHA complexion soap for the body(do NOT use on face might be cheap but very strong) Clear essence maxi tone soap (has hydroquione and apricot seed works very good for me) yeah the aha gave my skin a gold undertone and it got really brown like Nicole scherzinger's skin tone then in the winter with hydroquione soap,cream my skin turns about that singer cassie or jessica alba's skin tone.. \but I been using hq since I was 14 I went from kelly rowland or a dark indian color to beyonce's and now nicole scherziner's when I look at my old school photo I'm like holy s*** lol I can send you a pic if you want just pm me your email

    I never had to melt my hq I bought mine in a 4oz powder form that you can just add half a tea spoon in 2% body lotion close the cap and shake it then use it half a teaspoon is 2%, the other user probably bought there's in crystals that only chemist know how to properly prepare

    Fair and white such useless overpriced products! F-U FAIR AND WHITE MAKERS! None of there creams or anything work don't waste your money on that expensive rubbish if you are going to buy anything from them only buy their AHA soap in the orange box

    With all the talk about the problems of long term use of Hq, would you mind saying how long you have been using the HQ for. And congrats on achieving what sounds like good lightening results.

    Hey Tai, thanks for telling me. That's great that Clear Essence helped lighten you very well. Yeah I'll send you a pm to see the before and after picts, thanks. Are you sure your not referring to the Fair & Flawless line instead of the Fair & White? I know that Fair & Flawless are insanely expensive, but Fair & White usually cost about $20 or less. I never tried either.
