    Makari night cream will definitely lighten your arms and quick too. Just be cautious not to put too much on the inner fold of your arms because I may be wrong, but I used it a lot there too and then I started to get red stretch marks. The only other product I was using there was the Diana Stalder papaya kojic soap which never gave it to any areas. But, for some they say that has never happened to them.

    In my state there is no taxes so with that little bonus I do get to save a bit.

    wouldn't that be great. Being Military there is normally no taxes anyway when shopping at the Bx. But Now I have the freedom to shop anywhere with no added taxes. It's lovely!

    What causes the spots/breakout with Makari?

    Hello so Sexy, The Makari kit that comes with the Body Milk, Caviar Cream, soap, and moisturising lotion. It costed me 100 bucks so I would love to know how long I can expect this kit to last me.

    At this time, I don't know what else to use, other than being recommended to incorporate niacinamide, msm, turmeric, orally, and alpha-arbutin, topically, into my regimen, and to apply liberally, which I can't imagine since the bottles look gorgeous, but quite small.

    That looks like a wise choice its more ounces and who knows maybe milk abssorbs better than thicker cream?

    I just don't see any other product without positive reviews either, aside from obtaining pure alpha-arbutin and creating a 5% cream-- and adding other strongs thinngs to it which makes me think alone it wouldn't work?

    It sounds like nothing works long enough to stick with it.

    I know right, that's why we all keep changing from product to product

    Yep. I guess alternating 2 brands every few months may help with this. I believe alpha-arbutin is less potent than Hq but more potent than regular arbutin, and it will take longer to see lightening results.

    That sounds too lovely.. maybe I should have went to the military after all..

    The eason why makari products often causes breakouts is because they use only hydrogentated oils which causes free radicals damage, clogged pores which results into acne, and also age your skin ni the long run.
