    It might take longer, I'm sure the result will be the same, after a longer period

    Woow that is dangerous,

    It says, if you don't see any changes, you should immediately stop using it.

    It actuilly also dangerous, in the way, that your body might get use to the hydroquinone, and now would be resistant against the hydroquinone.

    If the Hydroquinone is really pure then that is a concern but I don't think it is. I know this because a friend of mine gave me a 5% cream about 3 months ago and it worked on my hands right away but the website that she bought it is no longer up and running so I moved on to the other company. These days the strengths say these high percentage numbers and they aren't... so I'm comfortable with what I am doing.

    Oh okay, then be careful, that they don't rip you off,

    Because nobody knows if there is even enough Hydroquinone in your cream,

    And we can't be sure how much there is.

    I myself, tried creams that claim to have 15% hydroquinone, and they were totally false,

    Actuilly I got a dermatologist, checked for me, if it had any hydroquinone, included in the

    Cream I bought, and it contained 0% hydroquinone, and most people

    Are upset, about this.

    And you know one of those black beauty stores, in Scandinavia, recently my brother

    Claimed that some of them, are fake. And they even have hard time, to sell the illegal

    Ones, with more then 2% hydroquinone. Most of them are only 2%.

    They are not allowed to sell those who have higher percentage.

    Cool I hear you. Thanks for the concern. It definitely has Hydroquinone in it - just can't say how much for sure. My neck chest and arms have gotten quite a few shades lighter... its just my knuckles and toes that remain darker... it looks horrible... but I'll keep trying its been only 2 months that I have been using that one so I am willing to give it a chance.

    If your interested in compounding your own Hq cream then you can buy pure hq from photography stores and for cheaper, as they do not market it as a cosmetic, but it is the same Hq.

    So is mono.net a scam? I was searching Glutathione INJECTIONS and came upon their site.

    It looks expanded, there are hundreds of products. Most of the botanicals names are listed wrong, though, heheh.

    www.monobenzone.net - benoquin, monobenzone cream we ship worldwide.

    Do you want to take the risk ordering their injections? They'll make you end up in the hospital though.

    I would not buy injections over the internet - for real unless it is my own doctor's website.

    I was wondering if we could apply it on the entire body? I was using mono right now. 4 weeks already and so far I'm getting lighter. No silly patches. But I'm a bit scared because these testimonials from the internet kept on shouting at me "4 weeks of mono is enough! Change to something else or u'll get patches!!"

    You will get patches guaranteed, if you scared of patches do not touch mono simple.

    You need two things for mono to work

    1. Do not buy from scammers
    2. mix it the right way, research it and you will know how it works.

    Mono works, it gives patches but it will work, I didn't have one single doubt that it will not work, and I have seen how it works.

    Sara, is there any tips on mono to get a good result? Like how dyou use it?
    So far (4 weeks) my skin is getting lighter evenly. I think partly it's because:
    -I took 1500mg Vitamin C everyday (500g morning, 500g Afternoon, 500g night) to slow down my melanin production. (Vitamin C DOES prohibit melanin production, it's already proven). And a week before I got my mono, I already started consuming lots of Vitamin C. I was just thinking that it would be better if my melanin production were being slow down before I use mono. The weaker the melanin, the easier for it to be destroyed, right?
    -I stood naked in the bathroom for 30minutes every time I apply mono to let my skin absorb mono without any interference
    - I avoid sunlight at all cost. I just wear long sleeves, I don't use sunblock, because I think too much sunblock irritates the skin.
    - I even out the color by not using mono on the lighter skin
    - I use hydroquinone 4% sometimes when I feel my body needs to slow down on mono.
    And I didn't mix my mono with olive or almond oil, I mix it with plain baby lotion that is non-allergic and only serve for moisturizing purpose.
    For me, the important thing to remember is that mono destroys melanin, while Hq stops it's production. So yeah, be wise at using both two.
