    Is any of the suggestion in the 'best ones' safe at all? I've been using G&G oil.. and its working but slowlyyyy so I'm thinking of using african queen once a week since I'm sure it has HQ if it works so fast. Does it actually work? Any one else tried it?

    Take a look!
    Fair & White,Exclusive Whitenizer,Skin Lightening,Skin Whitening,Skin Brightening
    Whats going on? The people won't reply me! And to think I am a fan! They are so lucky that atleast the freaking thing works!!

    Viola, yes F&W Exclusive (in the blue bottle) does contain hydroquinone... I'm not sure of the percentage however. I bought it about 2 years ago, decided to do some research on the ingredients on the back when I got it, and they changed the name to some scientific name so you won't know what it is. I can't remember the name off top but if you research each of those ingredients listed on the back on wikipedia, you will find that one of them is a fancy name for hydroquinone. Hope I helped.

    @Wetseal I purchased my Retin A at sell.com it is the generic for 10 bucks and it works great at exfoliating the skin and clearing any breakout you may have also boosting skin lighteners to work even better/faster.

    Thanks much girl.
    The wave of shock is over already.It did help.I am sure it more than 2% because I used Clear Tone and it contains 1.9%.But it wasn't able to make me this fair in a month.

    Always feared HQ so so much.
    "Oh no... don't use it! It has HQ'' always heard that.

    A little while ago, it was suggested after testing that it contained 8 % HQ. The company have not confirmed or denied this when asked.

    Just to go sell.com and search Retin A you'll see several listed but the one I and many others use is the 0.1% which is the strongest strength and it's only $10.00, the sellers name is superskinstore. The weakest strength is 0.025%

    Or you could try All day chemist. Shipping is high at $25 but this can be off set by purchasing in bulk. The Retin A typically cost between $2 - $3 or so.

    That's it Maharani. Hydroquinone is 1,4-benzenediol. 8% really? That's a lot.

    Guys... those of you who were still wondering if F&W Exclusive has HQ,well here is the verdict-
    Yes it does! And it is written at the back of the package... in coded chemistry terms-1,4-benzenediol.
    It's the percentage that is stated. Who knows... it could be the 8% as some say.
    I wish it was not true.

    Good question...
    I really love the results... love is an understatement.
    But from the very word go,I never wanted to use HQ,talk less for a long time.
    If I find something else that can do the job,then I will gladly let go.But while I surf,I am still going to use it.Yes,I will.So White actually gives me virtually the same result but is a longer time though.Let me get more options.Remember the thing they say about using 1 lotion for more than 6months straight... I don't want to risk it not working later on.

    MAxi Light works really well when mixed with the neoprosone gel , Neoprosone gel mixed with the retail nadinola maintains the acquired complexion and tones it evenly. Bio clair really gives stretch marks between the thighs and it doesnot work even when you use it with the oil ,I just started using the neoprosone with vitamin c . It doesn't burn like the original neoprosone but I will advise how well it works
