    I been wondering myself if there a scam... so many products out there that are scams... I guess I have to stick with hydroquinone for now and maybe try L-Glutathione in future.

    Update!!
    Hello people just want to inform you that I have been taking my glutathione pills for 4 days now already, 3000mg a day :D

    Well so far I haven't seen any whitening since well its just 4 days :D, well haven't seen anything change just for a simple flu I had that its gone maybe its because of the 6000mg of vitamin C I take hehehe.

    And with the thienna products I am using, still the same, no whitening still for a week that I have been using them but my skin is getting smoother because thienna has a lotion! Weeee!! Hehehe

    Will update you again! Good luck to me! And to all of us!!

    For one thing, considering the body surface you have to cover with your cream, I think it would cost you an arm & a leg. Are you for real? For discolorations or for the face I guess this would be okay but your ENTIRE body? I have to start laying golden eggs to be able to afford that. Another, with lotions or creams, there is a big problem with hard to reach areas. Take the back for example or the insides of the thigh & the folds of our butts. Do you think we will remember everyday to put cream on these areas? I don't think I do. Do you?

    Ei dimples, thanks, I'l take your advice... by the way, what pills do you take & where have you bought them? So how's the lightening?
    I think I'l take dr. james... if you triple the amount of vit. c, will it be more effective than just doubling the dosage?

    TO Sexy Rhia
    Hi Rhia
    I took your advise and got in contact with Eunice last week and placed my order. I also e-mailed Magic Potion. Eunice was very nice and personal towards me and took the time to answer all my questions, one by one. Magic Potion sent me an e-mail about their products and I read their information about taking too much vitamin A and B. I found that information very important. Therefore, I would say to communicate with both sellers is no harm and can get build your knowledge base on skin whitening. They both seem to be good sellers. I am thinking of buying some grapeseed extract from Magic Potion in the future, but for right now, I have already put in a nice order with Eunice.

    My question to you Rhia is
    How much did you whiten from taking the pills before you went out and got a tan. How many shades did you whiten and I do remember when you said you started taking the pills, but tell us again, how long were you taking the pills before you became __?__lighter?

    Next question is, are you a believer that for faster or better results to use some type of skin whitening cream while you are taking the pills. Right now, before I get my package from Eunice, I am using Whiter Skin

    I wouldn't recommned you take tripeld dose of Vitamin C. It is ascorbic acid & acids do harms the stomach. I advise you take it same dose as the glutathione or if you really want to, twice.

    is this an effective regimen?
    I've been working on a regimen that includes 3000mg of Gluta, with a "twist"... look to find out:

    Regimen for a year: let's say, we started in November...

    3000mg of Gluta - Dec - Jan
    2000mg of Gluta - Feb - March - Apr - May
    1000mg of Gluta - June - July - Aug - Sep - Oct - Nov

    Summary: Since it's important for the first 2-3 months of taking Gluta, I incorporated a 3000mg for 2 months... then after the Gluta has taken its effect on the dermis... I reduced the Gluta content to 2000mg, but, I increased it by two months more... then after four months, I reduced it to the lowest concentration, 1000mg for six months... does it make sense? LISTEN...

    Since at first, the body has adapted to 3000mg of Gluta... to change it to a lower concentration, but let the body "think" that it's still taking the original dosage... here is the formula: for every decrease of 1000mg of Gluta = an increase of two months

    Gradual process... dba?? It indeed does make sense... in this way, it fools the body... but actually, you take a lower concentration this time, in effect, you have to take it for longer though...

    So, can I know your comments on my "mini-theory"?? Hehehe...

    My question to you Rhia is
    How much did you whiten from taking the pills before you went out and got a tan. How many shades did you whiten and I do remember when you said you started taking the pills, but tell us again, how long were you taking the pills before you became __?__lighter?

    *** I got 2 shades lighter just on the first month of taking the pills! Because I did really take 3000mg of gluta and double the dosage of vitamin C. before I went back to the philippines, I actually was 3-4 shades lighter that's taking the pills for like 3 months but now I'm in a good tan :D

    Next question is, are you a believer that for faster or better results to use some type of skin whitening cream while you are taking the pills. Right now, before I get my package from Eunice, I am using Whiter Skin

    ***i do also use whitening lotions and creams, I am using amira whitening line, from their soap, lotion and creams, yes I do believe that for a faster results it is best to use whitening creams and lotions
    - first because we really need to moisturize our skin, when we want to lighten our skin why not use lightening lotions or creams instead of normal creams or moisturizers.
    - secondly, I think that there are parts of our body that are not even with the rest so I think or rather believe that in using creams and lotions and soaps, we would help to even it faster with this stuffs.
    - thirdly, I think its best to use whitening creams too because we actually don't see whitening that fast with pills since as they say the whitening starts from the inside, so in my opinion it would be faster to whiten whenusing the whitenig creams because we lighten from whithin then we lighten from outside when they meet halfway then that's faster :D

    Hi sexy rhia... I'm curious, what pills do you use?. and I've heard you've ordered from eunice... so, how is she as a seller? And oh, one more thing, since your tanned, does that mean that all the whitening pills you took was a waste... I mean, you'd be back to zero right??

    To Sexy Ria aka Unis
    I am not promoting magicpotions as you can see, I have bought from other sellers as well but it was only magicpotions that really dived their prices when in bulk order. I do not want to mislead people that I am promoting magicptions the way all your posts are promoting Unis. I tell people to check other sources so they can get a cheaper price. I checked all of eBay & most prices are fixed. I have ordered from Kazumi also. My first whitening pills were from him but he did not give me a better deal. So, it is BULL**** to say that I am promoting magicpotions. But obviously, you still are Unis.

    If you guys have relatives in the Philippines, have them buy for you rather than be misled to believe that these prices some people are charging you here are fair. You get them for 1/3 the price they charge when you buy it there. Best way to send it would be by Johny Cargo(so what now, Sexy Rhia, you will comment that I am promoting Johny Cargo as well?) since that is from my point of view the cheapest.

    Hi,

    I am from India and using skin whitening capsules from past one year but not regularly. Earlier I had taken them from lucida-ds and continued it for 3 - 4 months but not seen much difference. Actually, I use to take 2 capsules daily and it was told later that I have to take 4 capsules in a day. So I started taking 4 for 2 months or so but not seen much difference. Then I after 2 months I ordered from Kazumi. I am finished with her 6th bottle. Each bottle contain 60 capsules. I have seen only a minor change in my skin. Just 1 shade lighter you can say. I am continuing them. Earlier I was told by Kazumi that I can become as white as I want but now she is saying there is limit to the whitening and there is some problem with my metabolism. I don't know I am wasting my money or not. But I really want to be very very fair. Please send me the skin lightening report at [email protected]. I will also keep you guys with the latest updates of these whitening pills on my skin

    :confused: so... I don't get it, if a person has a high metabolism it means general whitening pills won't really work on them because the body won't absorb the necceasry things it needs for the skin to be lighter?

    Johnny Cargo was recently raid by the US Customs for particiating on shipments of illegal and unlicensed drugs. I didn't mean drugs, drugs, but drugs that are not regulated by the FDA. :cool:

    Really? I didn't know that. My bad. But I have compared the shipping prices of other companies & they have the cheapest. Most of my friends ship goods through them too because of their low price.
