    :D Well zagadai I also don`t give up to take my l-glutathione pills. However I would be rather grateful for any (more/new) information. Your soaps works with the pilling effect which is harmful for your skin. By the way even to take your pills and soap is a experiment and maybe a waste of money. I didn`t hope so! Have a nice day!! LOTTI :eek:

    Wow ----
    Hey lotti thanks for the link , I checked out most of them (( all of them anyway)) I took almost 4 hours on some of the forums trying to do some research on the testimonials given by the other members on particular webistes.
    And guess what? I checked out yellow gal on one of the dissicusions at some particular site.hmmmmmm
    Did u get the difference between japan and usa l-glutathione pills? lol
    Wow and guess what some one came up[ and said it was all a scam , that it did not work.hmm ((( I wouldn't want no one to say that when have already made my order))
    Well looks like I will be buying the pills pretty soon , plus the vit c and the sun blocker though am trying to get the cheapest prices right now cause lots of the sites I have checked are damn expensinve damn!
    Anyway did u say u were using the pills as for now? Hmmm how is it going on your side anyway? Have u noticed any change or difference or anything u can talk about as an aftermath affect of using the pills .
    Thanks
    Take care.

    :) Hi yeelowgal85,

    Which pills is your friend using on the other forum?
    Some kind of l-glutathione pills.
    How long did she/he used now this pills and what` s about her/him experience.

    I can` t find any news, answers, experiences... on your other forum.
    Amber I think she is using Vit C. together with kojac acid.
    I used kojac acid creams together with a Vit C. Serum years ago and it was very harmful to my skin and I stopped it after 4 month. :(

    Can you tell me more!

    Hello yellowgal85,
    How's your research going. Well I read your post and we are in the same boat I am also thinking of trying active white or mabey glutathione pills. Have you found out any info what really works.

    Hi yellowgal85,

    Well I` m only using the l-glutathione pills (with Vit C. and a sunblocker).
    I don` t like the soaps because they only peel the surface of the skin. They may remove (dark-) pigment on the surface and you will see a fast but but not a long term result. The soaps make your skin even sensitive opposite the insolation. If you don` t use a strong sunblocker you will even become darker. Be carefully.

    Other question:
    Has any one experience with Lucida DS "unitedshelter.com"?
    How is their dlivery service?
    How long is the waiting period after ordering?
    How is their product?`
    Any information would be helpful! :eek:
    I am still waiting of 2 different orders of l-glutathione! :mad:

    HAVE A NICE DAY!!

    & good luck

    Hi lotti
    I joined the forum yesturday and read your messages, and I am so glad to have I found you guys. I too have tried a number of things to lighten my skin, even skin resurfacing which was ver expensisve. I am now seriously thinking of trying Lucida ds or active whites, do you know which ones is best. I have been on the united shelter website and I think it looks like it will really work, what do you think. It is supposed to take 3-10 days to receive your parcel has it come yet? Lucida ds is very similar to l-glutathione and works the same way. So why have you ordered these when they are the same as the pills you are taking now. Are the glutathione working for you or are you having any problems with them. If I found out anymore I will let you know.speak to you soon. Tinabrown
    Something will work just keep researching

    Hi TinaBrown,
    Well I am still using l-glutathione pills now from the chemist`s shop around the corner. But it` s to expensive their (in high doses)! 60 pieces, each with 100mg 30 euro. Too much. I ordered 20 bottles 60 pieces with 500mg by unitedshelter DS for about $200. Much cheaper! :) I am waiting now since 10 day. I hope it will arrive soon. :eek: I have good feeling that this pills are the right thing for us.
    Have a blessed day. LOTTI

    Hi lotti
    I have some good news, I spoke to randy from the unitedshelter company on the telephone and I don't have to order from the internet I can give my order to him and he will make the collection and send to me. Randy is the brother of the owner of the website, so if anything goes wrong I have his direct contact number. I am in the uk and they have a pick up center for the pills in the uk, so mabey they have a pick up center in whatever country you are in. I as well have confidence in the pills. I'm not quite sure how I buy the vitamin c, is it a tablet or what, and where from? With the lucdia ds there is no vitamin c in it but in other pills there are. I think your order should come if not I will try find out as much as I can for you.
    Speak to you soon
    Something will work

    Hi tinaBrown,

    Well I am from italy not so far. Unitedshelter.com/ Lucida DS was the cheapest marketing I could find (if you order 10 bottles). Read all things trough in this forum and you will find a lot of links (other forums.. ) and opinios.
    As soon as I get my order (10 bottles) I will start using l-glutathione (lucida DS) in the right high doses with the double doses of Vit C. and a sunblocker. (30 min after a meal 3 times a day)
    Nevertheless it will still take month to see results (depens on your complexion until 2 years) and to know if it still works. (take a look on the unitedshelter homepage and their you can read more about the period of using)
    HAVE A NICE DAY!! :)


    Good luck

    lotti, thanks for the info on the soap... I was told that it does work a little bit, but not really without the cream, so I'll pass... I get so upset when I keep finding out that there's a bunch of fakes out there selling products that don't even work, or is very damaging... makes me soooo angry sometimes. :mad:
    Anyway, I think I'm just going to order the "Active white" pills and see how they work out for me. I know it could take a while... so I'm going to try and be really patient when I start taking them... I still need to go to a drug store and find Vitamin C in high doses... Do normal drug stores sell VC in high doses..
    And last question... I'm just wondering about "Active White"--it's 500mg L-Glutatione per pill... but I'll need more than that when I multiply (20-40mg x weight--(my calculations: 30mg x 55mg = 1650mg of L-glutathione) I need 1650mg three times daily and Active white only give out 500mg per pill... So does that mean I take more than one pill @ once to meet the actual dosage I'm suppose to take.. Help me out here... Thanks if you can... :)

    Hi yellowgal85
    Its TinaBrown here just thought I would let you know that yes you do need to take about 1650mg a day so that means taking active white 3xdaily with a double dose of vitamin c. Because active whites have 5000mg each tablet you will be taking exactly 1500mg a day, which is the round about amount you need. I know this because active whites have the same amount as Lucida ds, which I have done a lot of research on and will be ordering.
    I hope you have researched a lot on active whites, I know they are 100% natural. If Lucida ds doesent work for me active whites is my second choice, after that I give up. Let me know how you get on.
    Domething will work just keep researching.

    Hey lotti [italy is not far at all]
    You didn't tell me if your Lucida ds have arrived yet, I swear its about day 12 for you now? Second question is I need to know where I can buy my vitaminc from in high doses. And also I am abit worried about the fact that I could be taken the pills for up to 6 months mabey a year, for my complexion. Don't you think it will up our body if we take this for so long. And if we stop after a year we will go back darker or is it permanent that's one thing they don't mention. Let me know all the questions. Thanks

    Hi yellowgal,

    Your body weight is 55 kg.

    55 x 20(mg) = 1100mg
    55 x 40(mg) = 2200mg

    You should take between 1100 to 2200mg l-glutathione in 3 divided doses with the double of Vit. C a day!

    Hi spyyder,

    For skin whiteing you have to take l-glutathione (reduced glutathione is the same)!!

    Your bobdy weight is 68kg:

    68 x 20 = 1360
    68 x 40 = 2720

    Take between 1360mg to 2720mg l-glutathione a day in 3 dosis 30 min for a meal together with the double mg of Vit C.
    So you have to take between 1360 x 2 = 2720 to (2720x2=) 5440mg Vit C. each day!
    All right :cool:
    USE EVEN A SUNBLOCKER!

    good luck

    Hmmm... that is a good question... I didn't know that VC made you gain weight... I'll just have to eat less to maintain my weight then... or just exercise or something... Anyway, spyyder, I think the dosage after maintaining your desired tone is 500mg of L-glutathione, and double that (1000mg) of Vitamin C once daily. Hth!! :)

    Permanent results?
    Would you get permanent results by taking L-glutathione and Vitamin C?

    .. Spending that much money on pills and lightening creams then having your complexion change back after a while Without continual use would be just terrible
