    Hey JetBlack.

    I tried Satin Skin whitening cream from us-shop.com. It didntr help really. My Skin was damaged. I don't use that anymore. I don't know if its worth searching for something like that. A few days ago someone said to me that my skin is like satin. Great compliment isn't it? Don't know if there is at least something to even out skin tone. I mean the one who are too light can go into a sun-studio or on the beach. But the others can't do anything. That's sad

    YEAH Don't look at the pictures... look at the price. Lol

    Ridiculous. Just ridiculous.
    I bet the production costs are
    0,0000000000000001% of that!!

    OK it's the right thing for people like Beyonce :mad:

    Digitally edited? Naaaaw, if you look closely the before picture is dark pantyhose! This teresssa place in Spain used to run an eye lightening scam also many years ago. Also, not much a professional site with a Yahoo email, is it?

    I have tried the whitening pearl pills. They are for weight loss too. Bit don't be fooled by their promise of better skin though I would say a lot has succeeded with the weight loss, no one had any degree of whitening. My brother lost 10 lbs by it in more than a month. It has thermogenic effect so you tend to sweat a lot. But whitening... nope. Do check the sites & the prices. The one with the best price would be the best. :p After all, we would be using it for quite sometime so it would just disrupt our regimen if it were too pricey. Also, for melasma, my mom just purchased her magic cream. She bought one bottle first but when it did lighten her melasma, she bought 20.Lol. Will check it out for you later when she is here so you wouldn't be able to buy the wrong one. Its from KSA. I think this one is not Pervil nor Amira. Will update you later. Also, my aunt had a very drastic lightening of her melasma which occurred on both apples on her cheeks by using a placenta soap. I just forgot the brand. Will tell you that also later. If you do find something that works, do update us on it. :)

    I'm from australia, I have emailed the sites and well they have responded well, I have already made my purchase, to the one that gives the lowest price. Of course! With freebies and all! :D I think all you have to do is to tryto bargain them. :p I was only able to get a bargain on one of them because the others are fixed with their prices. Hehe

    And now I am excited with my pills, I am already waiting for them. I will keep you guys updated. Thanks a lot.

    And by the way, I was informed the FDA of the philippines is called BFAD. Hehe

    Hmmm... I haven't tried those from whiterskin but my friend swears by Shiseido. I have tried a lot of products myself but most of them did not work alone for me so now, I am taking pills & using whitening lotions & soap with it. I think it would be best to combine. But since you are not into this, I do suggest you try look for products readily available in your place & check how they work since anything topical would work slowly. Do update us on your progress.

    There has to be something out there, look at Oprah Winfrey skin color today and compare it to a picuter of her taking 5 years ago. There's a big big difference . She's like 5 shade lighter.

    Glutathione+sun screen+likhas papaya soap+astringent+regular face cleanser.

    -take your gluta dosage with proper vC
    -clean face with a regular facial cleaner
    -then use astringent with cotton swabs to freshen face up
    -then shower with papaya whitening soap so it cleans with the pores open from the astringent
    -use sunscreen when outside

    If you properly do it you can get like 3 shades, that's what I see from the research I've done so far.
