I've gotten light spots, but not necessarily "white" in the past. Whenever that happens, it usually blends with the rest of the skin within a matter of days.

I believe the Alpha Arbutin does a great job of concealing these spots as well; as lighter spots occur (monobenzone), areas that haven't been affected thoroughly are (at the very least) lightened to match the skin in general.

One day I'll notice a segment lighter than usual, the next day, my skin is lighter throughout. It's not perfect, but I'd say it works great.

Never heard of it. I am bewildered why are there so many products with so many ingredients wouldn't 1 or 2 best ingredients be more effective?

That's a very good conclusion - I've noticed that a lot of people purchase products with a vast amount of ingredients; one or two of which actually lighten. There's nothing wrong with this of course, but it doesn't guarantee results that you'd expect from known "solutions" or ingredients used alone.

Hi Greg, What are you using?And strength?

Read!
This topics get so long and clogged up with unrelavant posts because people are lazy and can't be bothered to read

Thank you for that reminder that's just it, I thought Greg was talking about Tonique working well, not Monobenzone!

As for how it's done, I use a system of 5% Alpha Arbutin and 5% monobenzone. Generally, I apply monobenzone directly onto the skin, and later apply the Alpha Arbutin as well.
