    Argument?
    Hi Brownsugar,
    No arguments here. This is an open forum for everybody to write their opinion.
    You are very upset on the posting over the photo. Take it easy.

    entity33 if you had bothered to read my previous posts then you would not have made this complete and false accusation of me trying to "persuade people into using monobenzone". I have always stated my position on the use of monobenzone and that is that I believe its going to the extreme in skin whiting this of course is only in my opinion and I have always emphasised that. Also concerning Latoya Wilson I have never used her to backup any ridiculous claims I supposedly made, I don't understand what your trying to make me out to be but you obviously don't know what your talking about if your trying to make me seem like this.

    Also just cause you're an admin in a monobenzone forum doesn't mean you know more about monobenzone then the average person if I'm correct you yourself haven't even used monobenzone yourself so I just don't understand what your trying to make yourself out to be. Wasn't it back in December that you never even heard of monobenzone? In fact I have the link below to prove it. Do you remember in December when you yes entity33 you continually asked me to reply to your question of what monobenzone was in the first place if you don't remember I think this link will refresh your memory

    Your not a doctor in the first place so you can't state many of these things your saying as fact also if I'm correct your not a user of monobenzone yourself so you can't even state this as fact on behalf of personal use. So if any one is possibly misinforming people its you, by stating things you've heard as fact, as for me I have never stated anything I've said as fact.


    In all of the posts I have made I have always said things like I think... or I heard that... or in my opinion... I never ever said it's a said.. it's a fact that... or this is true for sure... because this is a forum where people can come and give opinions, and advice of there own. Since you did not do your research on me before making this accusation about me to prove my point I've put a link below on every post I've made. By all means look through and then tell me if I've ever told anyone what to do or think of monobenzone.

    How about you let everyone else decide what to believe and what not to believe for themselves it is not in your place to tell people who's worth listening to.

    I hope this clarifies my position, and intentions on this forum I'm just like all of you looking for that perfect product to lighten my skin a few shades.

    But the majority of things I said is correct and clarifies on most of the misinformation that has been rumored around the net about monobenzone, which in result would cause many people to destroy their otherwise beautiful/even skin tone (usually permanently).

    My apologies for directly insulting your credibility and indirectly affecting your reputation on this forum. But other than that, I stand by everything else I said. Everyone feel free to believe me or not.

    Sorry again Brownsugar... don't hate me :(

    Apology accepted, no worries I'm not a hater ;)

    In regards to Ethnicity, I am Black. However, I perfer to be considered as an (Afro-West Indian American). see pics @ BLACKPEOPLEMEET.COM
    and search for CHAYOTE23

    Ok thanks for that info, I checked the Walgreens website and this product is fairly inexpensive, I think like 9 bucks.. I saw where u said to slowly reduce the usage but how long does this last?

    I have been using products sold by this lady who lives in Nashville, US. She is an indian and has these herbal products. The best product that she has are Shagrain and Sha Gold Mask, which I have used for 8 months now. It has made my skin fairer by 2-3 degrees, but I am looking for some pill that I can have orally too, to complement the shagrain and sha gold mask.

    I want to use something that is 100% natural. I used some of these products - godiva, amira, etc with no results at all.

    Then I went Regis in New York and one of the girls there put me in contact with this woman in Nashville. She told me some stuff about my skin and I sent her my pictures and she solved some of my queries on skin lightening.

    She told me that:

    This may seem elementary to some of you here, but, what she told me is:

    1. skin is dark for 2 reasons : permanent tanning ( tanning during childhood), hereditary factors.

    2. by cleaning your skin everyday (without using any whitening products) you can improve your skin tone by 1-2 degrees.

    3. If you use a mild exfoliant you can improve it another one degree

    She gave me a lot of tips on cleaning my face and stuff. She taught me that it's a regular process and you have to use 3-4 thing together to attain the colour you want.

    But, I don't get the time to use all the stuff she says.

    Can someone tell me if glutathione is safe to ingest orally.

    Try clear essence at Clear Essence® Cosmetics USA, Inc.. I had the same problem with the sun darkening my skin this product line worked for me, It's not messy and works very well.
