    "White up"
    Hello it's been 2 months now that I'm using fair and white product now that I read all about those products I am very scare, I don't want to harm my skin I have a bright skin and I just want my complexion to be smooth and keep its brightening.

    When I read all the ingredients that Fair and white "lait Hydra Perfector" contains there is no HYDROQUINONE But there is one POWERFUL LGHTENING AGENT call "WHITE UP":confused:

    IF somebody uses that cream please let me know, what is that white up thing? If there is another way to call HYDROQUINONE I still have time to stop using that while I do not any secondary effect.

    Hahahaha.. yeah what brand are u using the fair and white exclusive or the regular. The exclusive seems to be very powerful but it is temporary, and I am sugesting that there must be some form of hydroquinone in it because after a summer in Az, my skin was darker than before, so if u can stay away from fair and white products and there are so many fake products from fair and white out there. For real, I got u on this, and believe me I've been on it for about 2 years and I know this one very well.

    Thanks for your feedback but I am using the whole kit fair and white (The one in pink bottle)" Lait Hydra Perfector" with white up Lightening and moisturizing body cream, Moisturizing and clarifying mask and Exfoliating cream.

    They don't say nowhere on the product packaging whether it is exclusive or regular, I haven't got any sides effect yet but I will stop it before it is too late

    Thanks again

    Yes I know it. Its sempiwhite, the main ingredient to fair and white products it is not HQ. It is something in and of itself. It uses a completely different way than HQ. don't worry your OK

    I was, but not anymore ( too expensive) I now have a direct seller of benoquin and it works faster then anything I've tried yet. Ihave been using it for about a week and have the results already of what a month of the other things I've tried have given me.
    It all depends on how much you want to lighten your skin. If you only want to go 1 or 2 shades lighter then I suggest using natural products such as licorice extract, uva ursi extract, crush some niacinamide ( a vitamin) put it in your bottle of lotion or some liquid vitamin c.
    These are all natural skin lighteners and they'll be more potent and cost you a fraction of the price of all that garbage on the internet. Those people are just triing to make money off you.
    Licorice extract and uva ursi extract are the most commonly used skin ligheners in most brand name products. But they'll charge you 50-80$ for one small bottle of this stuff. And they purposely make it weaker so that you'll have to keep buying more. When for 10$ you can buy a bottle of pure uva ursi or liccorice extract and make your own lotion much stronger and cheaper and better than theirs!:eek:
    Yoou can buy everything I mentioned at whole foods in their supplements section. Or any health food store or if you don't have ANY health food stores around you can order it from the internet for dirt cheap prices.
    I am using Benoquin only because I want to lighten my skin more than just 2 shades lighter.
    Benoquin is dangerous to 25% of the population who are alergic to it. The other 75% (which thank God I belong to ) It will completely dipigment anyone of even the darkest skin color in about 6 to 8 months. Any other products on the internet will take 2-3 years for a person of dark skin.Its really strong, that's why people are so afraid of it.
    But the majority of people who use it won't encounter that problem. You also have to be very carful to stay out of the sun while the lotion is on your skin and/or use a good sunblock . I am using it in the winter, when I'm mostly covered up and indoors anywayand the sun is weaker when it is shining.
    I will probably only use it for 2-3 months because I don't want to be completely white. I want to be in the middle. Like I said before what took other products (Ex. Licorice or uva ursi extract) 1 or 2 months to do benoquin has done in a few days. That's why its perscription. It doesn't make your skin white over night like some people suggest and it does not induce vitiligo in normal people as long as you spread it evenly over your whole body.But it works much faster than anything else, period.
    Thoes are just scare tacktics. I believed them, that's why I haven't used benoquin until now. But I got a lot of information about it, and decided to try it.
    If your allergic you'll know right away. Because the skin gets darker from it instaed of lighter.
    Anyway if you have anymore questions you can ask, and if you only want to get a couple shades lighter try the uva ursi and licorice extract, they work well for that.
    Hope you found this post helpful,

    After I reach my desired goal I will use something weaker like the things I mentioned in the other post to keep my desired color. Just for upkeep.

    Go to Monobenzone - Information Page
    You can buy from her. She's a nice woman. And she's got a lot of benoquin info so you won't mess up! And she sells benoquin.
    Goodluck!

    Uva Ursi is arbutin. Or even "Uva ursi's most active component is arbutin"

    Well thanks for letting me know, I'm scared and I'm not going to even bother any more... I thought I could just use one bottle of the natural licorice in my lotion to get like 2 shades lighter and leave it from there... I didn't know I had to do it forever lol... thanks again, I stay black lol
