Hi everyone! Can you tell me if BIo claire oil or lotion is a good product.what is the best lightening soap to use on your face.please somebody help me...

Bio Claire was on the BANNED list somewhere because of reports it contains corticosteroids.

Likas Green Papaya is working great for me, it helps peel the dead outer layer .But ironically it, like most bar soaps, has sodium lauryl sulfate which is clogging my pores and giving me blackheads!

Bio Claire is crap!! :( crap, crap, crap... although it works great on destroying and damaging skin!

Golden_Boy · Oct 15, 2009, 08:21 PM

Im not sure if Im on the bandwagon about dissing bioclaire... Its the ONLY thing working for me right now, and I had been using it for A WHILE before I stopped lightening my skin all together. Ive started back using it again. Now, it did attempt to ruin my skin in the eary stages, but I was smart about it and nipped that in the bud! I used the Murad acne kit and it fought against the bumps that had began on my head and edges of my face. I just think you have to be smart about this skin lightening thing. If you are breaking out from using a certain lightening cream, stop using it or invest in a serious acne regimen. That's what I did. Not bashing anyone, just stating my opinion. :)

I hope you know you're aging your skin when you combine bio claire and that acne treatment. Be careful.

Honestly, I have learned that on this board, when someone puts one product down, there are 3 more singing praises to it. If I believed everything that a person tells me about EVERY skin lightening product, Id be at square one. Im not bashing your comment, Im just saying where are the facts? The pitcures of someone who used bio claire and 4 months later looked aged with sagging skin? I have yet to see these things. The only thing that I experienced from Bio claire was acne, and my skin becoming lighter, that's ab it.

I know this isn't about lightening but I tried the product ProActiv a while back... everyone I know thought it was excellent, it made their skin so clear...
With me it made my acne 100x worse...

Everyone has different skin, different amount of oils, different lifestyle so what doesn't work for one person may work for others...

However if there is truth that is has steroids in it then yowch, stay away from it, that can't be good for you.

I used to use proactive when I was 18, and it worked really good for my acne and quickly too. It also gave my skin this glow. A couple of years back I purchased it also for one of my younger counsins who had acne problems, but it also made her acne much worse. So now I have her using natural black soap and sometimes papaya soap and it has really helped her skin to clear nicely.

About the Bio Claire and any other bad lightening products, it's best that each individual should do a research about it and read information on the ingredients so that they are aware of the risks. There are also some links and other documented information that had been posted here in threads on the forum from other members. I think everyone should seek this information as it can cause internal damage, whether external damage is seen or not. But, to each his own.

This is what I'm waiting for all to arrive this week:
1. Likas Papaya Skin Whitening Herbal Soap
2. 55H+ Cristaline Glycerine Fine Eclaircissant Intense
3. Tretinoin 0.05%
4. Hydroquinone 4% (for my arms, hands, acne spots)
5. Dynamic Health Liquid Vitamin C w/Natural Rose Hips & Bioflavonoids: 1,000mg 16 oz
6. Neutrogena spf 85

Only other thing I tried that worked was makari night crème but too expensive so I'm looking at other routes. There are severl other things others are using here that has worked for them.

Yes, authentic black soap is gentle on the skin and is not actually "black" and hard, but different shades of brown and softer. I made the mistake once buying fake black soap and it had black dye in it and made my face swell up and red for days. The authentic kind will not do this. Papaya soap is really good too and it exfoliates, but it may possibly lighten your skin somewhat and stings for a while until your skin is used to it.

[QUOTE=so sexy;2039987]I heard so much good thing about bio claire on line,but now you talking about how it isn't good.I just need somethng safe to use

so sexy · Oct 20, 2009, 12:07 PM

Do you have dark spots from scars? Because with all the good affects I have with my cream and soap it still takes a while to lighten the scars. I can see them coming along gradually but still the lighter I become the more visible my scars are :(
