Ugh. Today I dared to go to my first class in short sleeves. I was so paranoid that everyone could see my secret. Because I started bleaching my arms later than my face chest and neck. So my face chest and neck are very light. But my arms are still kind of dark because I haven't really been focusing on them. It'll probably take a month or two for them to catch up to my upper body. Omg. I was sooooo paranoid that everyone could see my little secret. I felt like I sprinted home from class but I still felt like I was walking. My goodness.

I got the Glycerin one hopefully that be enough. I also got the HQ exfoilating soap so that's going to be my regime.

I don't think anyone on here has used either of the bleaching products
Why don't you purchase it anyway then you can tell us your results?
We're all here for trial error and improvements to share with one another after all!

Browndeceit, I know the feeling and it's so uncomfortable. Are you using the Chrystaline Glycerine to lighten the arms?

Much luck Klaas, keep us posted.

Hey Fairr, how is your regimen going? Well, I'll be making the order this weekend so I'll be my test subject... all about trial and error.

I am so pissed. Three weeks and I have yet to receive my product.. I think I'm going to file a complaint to paypal. I ordered from allbeautyessentials.. he told me last week he shiiped it and I should receive it by this weekend. Said the products were soon expiriing that's y. called Saturday and he said he shipped it on Friday and I should go online and check for the tracking number. I don't see one. It hasn't even been shipped I'm sure... ugggghhhh

Yeah, I would definitately file a report with paypal if I was you. Three weeks is way too long and they made themselves look bad, and poor customer service. I would be complaining everyday on their phone and email until I received my order. Are they also giving you an almost-expired product and did you tell him the tracking number does not work?

I orderd from bargainside Friday and got mines Monday. I really love the soap and its big too. The glycerin feels like oil and it takes a while to be absorbed into the skin

I called him today again this morning and guess what my orderhasnt even been shipped. He acted like he didn't know who I was or even remembered talking to me like 3 times last week. I told him that I wanted to cancel my order and he said that he will try to find out why it hasn't been shipped:mad: of course I had to lie and say I was travlling on Friday and I ordered the products for someone for him to say that he will do overnight shipping:rolleyes:

I keep breaking out with this stuff! :(
I think I've gotten a bit lighter maybe half a shade with only a week of usage :|

It's good to know Bargainside is a good place to order from, what kind of soap was it Weezing?

Sagluva, that's really messed up how the owner is acting. You should call there tomorrow and tell him your writing a complaint to the Better Business Bureau. I would have been so hot... you should file a report here and even tell him he should add some complimentary products (large size) for his lateness and poor customer service..

Fairr, your still breaking out? It's good that your skin is getting lighter quickly, but it seems to be clogging you pores. What products do you wash your face with?

I got the soap with apricot extracts. The lotion is really easy to apply its smooth and absorbs fast.

I'm just using a normal boring soap
I don't know anything good lightening soaps!
Any suggestions?

Thanks I'll def try that today...

Fairr I used the Diana Stalder papaya kojic soap and the glutathione soap, I like the papaya one better as the glutathione did nothing. The soap helped remove my acne and keep my face clear because of the papain enzyme from papaya. So, it kind of works like a chemical peel so the skin will sting when using it for a couple of weeks and then it will disappear, but it's a good exfoliar but too expensive. Natural black soap (which is really brown, there are a lot of fake black soaps) helps clean the skin well and is very gentle, I now get mine at the flea market or online. This time I'm going to get the Likas papaya soap on Amazon since I read good things about it and it's only half the price of the diana stalder brand. 55H+ looks like they have good soap too that lasts long.

Weezing what's the name of the 55H+ lotion and do you see any lightening yet?

Sagluva I hope you get your products soon, because that guy is wrong and unprofessional.

Finally received my cristalline.. it's huge and heavily perfumed... but goes on very smoothly...

I've used it once on my body so far... will keep you guys updated on my progress... if any... lol

I hope it lightens well for you. How does the perfume scent smell, does it smell nice?

Yeah, the scent is quite pleasant although I'd have preferred it to be less perfumed...

I see, keep us updated with your progress.

OK I've been using the body lotion for 3 days on my body and the glycerin for 4 days on my face and so far my hands, arms, thighs, and legs are lighter maybe like a half shade so the lotion is working YAY. I can tell my face is getting a little lighter but its not noticeable. Be back with another update in 4 days!

That's great and it's only been 4 days and you're already lightening. I can't till mine comes in the mail.

In just 3-4 days and already lightening on the body? That is really fast. Are you using an exfoliator as well?

Oh wow. So the lotion is really good? I should have to try that on my body. Which lotion is it specifically? They have so many!

Yup the 55h+ soap with apricot extracts but I think its to rough for my face. Could that be why results are so slow on my face? Its weird because usually my face is the first to lighten before anything else lol

I think its best that people state their race and skin tone. Because I feel that certain products work better on Lightskin black people/Whites/Asians. I am a darkskin black woman, and this cream was not potent enough to make any real difference in my complexion.

DarkSkinGirl. When did you use the cream? And which cream? There are several different products from 55H+. And my original skin tone is probably around Kelly Rowland's. But I'm this right now http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_ND920tPjWk...opard+face.jpg but I've used several different products since I was 15/16. The Christaline didn't take me from Kelly Rowland to Garcelle's complexion. But it did lighten me about 3 shades. I'm surprised it didn't work on you. This just proves that what works for some may not work for others.

Oh I must try this other product your doing! I might mix in the glycerine into it

Oh dear this is starting to sound like bio claire all over again... haha

Oh God. Don't say that!! I've never tried bio claire but I've heard some frightening things about it!! I truly hope this doesn't give us the same results as that. Blah! Well. I'm using it in moderation now anyway.

No I'm sure it won't!
Sorry!

Lol you don't have to say sorry!! I'm not mad! I just always type with exclamation points. Lol. I don't know why! I guess I'm just always excited? Lol.

Omg my friend told me my face looks really dark... I'm so sad. I think I'm going to mix my little sample bottle of the strong lotion with the glycerin for my face because the lotion is doing wonders for my bod

I cancelled my order on allbeauty essentials after having to wait three weeks for my order and I ordered from bargain side and now I am being told they are out so they will ship it next week when it comes in stock? I must have the worst luck:mad:

Well, that's good that you cancelled. Amazon I'm sure also sells this and you can even look at the seller's reputation and reviews, which is a big plus. Also, others have purchased 55H+ at Top Skin Clear so you can ask of other's experiences. Don't let things get you down, at least you were able to get your money back and will be on your way soon towards your goal.

Well my new little mix I created absorbs in the skin fast. I hope I see results on my face

What was the mix?

Wow I think I mentioned where I ordered from , try them!

Yes what are you mixing?

Hey guys! Today will be my third day using the glycerine on my face and my face has taken on a dark brown reddish look and my skin is kind of peeling. I don't look too cute right now, my makeup actually makes me look worse. Browndeceit, I don't recall you saying that it will make your skin peel? I'm also using a papaya and vanilla soap I forgot from who, I know papaya makes your skin peel but I've using it for like a month and it doesn't seem to do much anymore anyway. Should I stick it out? I got two pimples already but that can be my menstrual coming. Any good cleansers that keep pimples away? Thanks

What is the % Hydroquinone? How many shades lighter can I get with this?The bottle sounds big, does the cream turn brown? I find that creams with brown around the cap don't work and make me browner. I think that was Topiclear in the big tall bottle
