    OK here my June update of bio-claire my feet are almost completely light except for the edges of the side of my feet guest I'm going to have to wait a little bit longer.. I used a chemical peel called glycolic Acid 50%. To try help speed up the lightning process it did help some but I'm thinking of using stonger chemical peel of glycolic acid. My whole body has lighten up including my stomach knees the knee cap I thought it would take forever but didn't my whole leg is light skin... but I am noticing that my arms has darken a little bit which is weird.. when I used hydroquinone I stay the same light complexion but with bio-claire my arms got light very light now its weird.. thatI got a shade darker I haven't been in the sun and I'm still using bio-claire.. maybe its getting darker because the top layer of skin about to peel off again.. cause that's what happen the first time I use bio-claire back in December 2006. My skin got dark than it peel off and light skin was underneath. So I'm hope that's what's happening again...

    Any way I haven't seen any other bio- claire user on here lately.. where did you guys go?

    Hey! Im still here, Ive been lazy with the skin lighting with bio clair. But it did work for me. Im in the sun a lot and it hasn't done that much to darken me. I love it and I'll probably go back on it in the winter.

    I have been taking skin whitening pills for almost a year. I've been taking it since September 06. With all the pills, skin whitening lotion and soap. I have gotten 4-5 shades lighter. It takes patience and a lot of money. But I guarantee it does work. The best type of vitamin C to take is called ESTER-C. it was recommended by the dermatologist that I bought my whitening pills from. Good luck to everyone!

    Hey shory00,

    I was wondering what happen to all the bio-claire users...

    So your saying when you stop using bio-claire your complexion stay the same? I haven't stop using it... cause I'm afraid I would go back dark like how hydroquinone does cause if you stop using hydroquinone you get dark again so that would be good to know that when you stop using bio-claire your complexion would stay the same for a long period.

    Is that true you you been in the sun a lot and the sun didn't tan your skin? I avoid the sun as much as I can..

    I have been using glutathione pills from monet called ENLIGHTENING www.skinbymonet. The only bad thing is the price. I used it for 6 months and it helped a lot. The first time I bought it I was not informed to take VITAMIN C and to only take it once a day. Basically I didn't get what I paid for.

    second time that I bought it was from a different location. Just distrubutors. She said to take it with ester C. the best kinf od vitamin C.

    and as for products. Such as facial wash, lotion and moisturizer I get it through eBay or local asian markets. I like in souther California.

    if you guys happen to live near any filipino or asian stores such as SEAFOOD CITY or ISLAND PACIFIC they have plenty of whitening products.

    I use likas papaya but recently bought bleaching soap from a dermatologist that specializes in skin whitening. The soap was pretty price. 12.99

    facial wash I use ponds whitening, and ponds pearl cream as moisturizer

    lotion I bought from a dermatologist and I got riipped off 150$ on eBay it sells for 30$+ less dan a hundred.

    and I use eskinol papaya toner.

    I do this everyday dats why I have achieved results that I have wanted.

    now for skin whitening pills I use reduced L-glutathione from great earth. Its cheap like 20.00$ or less.


    I have talked to a dermatologist who specializes in skin whitening and she mentioned IV glutathione. I have seen pictures and it works! BUT you have to take maybe 10+ shots to get the result you want. And she rec. 2x a week or else it will be usless. The price is EXPENSIVE. 80$ a shot. But if you have the money. Den its your choice.

    she also re. body scurbs and peels to take out the dead skin cells such as diamond peel and microdermabrasion.

    when I have money I will most likely get a diamond peel to get rid of my dead skin cells. And don't forget to use SPF 30+!


    I hope that helped! =] tc

    Ya I rarely use, I only just now started again but in areas I never lightened. I have an office job but I wait for the bus and stuff and I'm in the sun sometimes it doesn't really do anything to me. There's no way you can completely avoid the sun... but when I go out it doesn't do anyhthing to me.. I haven't figured it out maybe because I stopped using it way before the warm weather came.. and my skin is used to it.. also I think the stornger the products--> the more likely it has a reverse effect on your skin and makes you red.. I dono. Who knoes. Gold I don't know how light you have gone from you original complextion but just used it like 3 times a week or limit it just to maintain thecolour.. I don't think you need to use it 2wice a day to maintain it.

    Yeah my legs I have gotten very light like halle berry light.. my upper body isn't as light... my legs are lighter than I wanted them to be.. I just wanted a light carmel color skin. I'm still working on my feets there almost completely light except for two toes and edges of the side of my feet. When I finally get my skin all even out I'm going to test to see how long I can go with out using the product I would love to be able to stop using it for while.. I'm afraid to be in the sun for a long period. When I vacation in FL where the sun super hot.. I probably will darken but I hope not.. I will be surprise if I don't.. oh I almost forgot bio- claire hasn't really work well on my hands... but every where else is fine... I wish I knew a product that works well on hands?. my hands refuse to lighten evenly... but all in all I still like bio claire I never achieve with any other products what bio claire has done for me...

    I want to ask a question everybody . How dark is u guys skin is it caramel or dark chocolate? And why is it a problem? Is it a medical problem that your skin is too dark or do you mean your skin is too dark in some areas (like uneven) or are u guys just not happy with the skin color you were born with?

    Really? I use it on muy hands here and there and it still lightens:s not suree. Its going to be hard going without it because you used diff proucts to lighten diff parts of your body so we doono how each reacts to the sun. It was really hot heree and it didn't do anythign to me but maybe it reacts differently with everyone.

    Yeah Bio- claire is a good product it may take a month or two to start seeing results.. at least for me it took that long.. but for some bio-claire work fairly quick on them. When I first started using it , it took forever to work on me. Since people kept saying it works.. I kept my patient and I started seeing results ( I almost called this product crap.. ) bio-claire works well on the whole body...
