    Agiboma is a new seller & she hasn't gotten any feedback yet. And getting results from monobenzone takes time. Thus, how can you be her customer? :o

    I think you are Agiboma. Hey, there's nothing wrong with that. :)
    Though I thought selling monobenzone on eBay is prohibited? :confused:

    need2getlight, you said you lighten GRADUALLY using monobenzone and your result is dramatic after only 2 weeks! Do you experience any burning, peeling etc?

    Hello sara_uk. You are right that Benoquin (monobenzone) is quite strong; however, I have lady friends in Canada who swear by the product, and suggested I use it. Currently, during the winter months, I use natural lemon and sugar to exfoliate and lighten my skin, but the results have to be maintained. With Benoquin, the results are permanent but worth it, if you follow a steady topical regimen--and stop using Benoquin when you reach your desired shade. I just recently purchased the cream when I was in Canada, and am eager to get started using it. As far as the Glutathione tablets (for skin whitening) supplement this with an equal dose of vitamin C since vitamin C prevents Glutathione from oxidizing (breaking down). The recommended dose of Glutathione is anywhere from 500-1500mg, depending on your weight. As an aside, Glutathione is a protein that is also produced naturally by our bodies to help prevent degredation at the cellular level (cell destruction). Unfortunately, as we age, our production of Glutathione decreases... . Visit Wikipedia for information on glutathione. I would not reccomend purchasing glutathione preparations from the web; many of those concoctions contain ingredients that, when taken in large doses, ex: Vitamin A and Vitamin E, can prove toxic! even fatal. Visit a reputable vitamin store in your area, and purchase REDUCED glutathione and take it in combination with an equal dose of vitamin C--this is, of course, in accordance with your weight, so you have to do the math. Research the reccommended dosage for normal cell maintenance, and then double that dose per 100 pounds of weight (if you use the metric system you will have to calculate in kilograms). The standard reccomendations are from 500mg-to 1500mg to see skin whitening results. Of course, they don't tell you on these: by-our-pills websites that you also have to use a skin lightening topical solution in conjunction with this oral treatment--you don't see results when used alone...go figure. Glutathione is also most effective when taken with Alpha Lipoic Acid--again visit Wikipedia keyword Alpha Lipoic Acid to learn more about this--the research will give you the opportunity to consider if the "pill"(s) option is the best and necessary option for you--I would say skip it, but it's entirely up to you. After using Benoquin for a short time, I think you will like the results (my two associates have nice, fair complexions) although I, personally, prefer a healthy tanned color--not brown, not pale. Here is where you can buy legitimate Benoquin (monobenzone) cream Canadian Pharmacy Online - Canada Pharmacy Offers Discount Prescription Drugs Canada Drugstore - CanadaDrugs.com type in the search field Benoquin (monobenzone),and you can purchase from there. Note: Benoquin (monobenzone) is sold over the counter legally in Canada, unlike the United States. Take care, and safe lightening. P.S.---stay away from ALL products containing Hydroquinone. And use Neutrogena Ultra Sheer Dry-Touch sunblock SPF 55 when exposed to the sun.

    your right but nlike the lady said it takes a long time and its not that strong as people make out it to be

    Hi all, this old post regarding mono, this the time I start thinking of mono, I finally got the courage to finish what I have started. It does work but you have to be prepared to patches, facing people, a lot of emotional challenge, you can not predict how it will work too, I started low 20% but I got dark areas like my under arm almost white, and little white spots every where. Luckily nothing in my face or hands, everywhere else can be covered but it is not guaranteed it will stay that way. My journey with mono been weird one, I started then decided against it, and now I want to finish it, I can not live with what I have done to my skin, so I need to finish until I become total depig. Please please make sure that what you want, you can not go back, and if you need any help I will try to do my best but do not ask me for my source.

    Good luck!

    Hi

    It has been trial and error with mono, very weird experience but good, Iam lucky I guess as mono loves me lol, in the other forum few people were lucky with the results, mainly black descent people, I do not know the science behind it but that was the results. When I first started, two years ago, I was on and off on mono, mainly because I was not sure about my decision but the total use was not more than 3 weeks. I read that certain parts are very sensitive to mono, for example underarm, behind ears etc so I applied there and all over, I have my under arm with big white spots, only little areas not white. The white spots are not stark white though, so I hope that will be my final shade.

    Now I restarted my mono about a week ago, and I must say I am more than pleased with my experience so far, the results I am getting it is not guaranteed for everyone. In the other forum we had people who had Vitiligo and there results were not even as fast, everyone's skin responds differently to mono. I have white spotts every where now but really tiny, and since last week I have lightening a shade, the reason I know because I have applied every where except my hand, and then cover it up with long sleeve, trouser the lot, and my hand is noticeably darker a shade, even my sister noticed.

    I will share my daily routine too, I am here to help, and I have no other intentions, Iam not a seller or promoter to anyone. I just know how hard it is to get information on mono.

    I totally agree, all the sudden people going on about how is BA is the best thing after sliced bread!! With no supporting evidence apart from the above forum, with the doggy site. When I fisrt started my mono, I know 10 more people who did at the same time, now 3 are done and 7 with great results and almost there. Mono does work, yes it will make you patchy but it does work if you buy it from good source not depig forum, or other doggy sites, I am really shocked how easily people can be fooled!!

    I really do not have choice in that, I will finish the monobenzone journey and it will decide my shade for me, I can't stop half way now. Some come out really stark white and some not so far my white spots are not that white.

    Not long, about 5 weeks now but I started two years ago, and stopped many times, I am back on it for two weeks now. I will do detailed update on my experience with pictures once I got the time.
