    Yeah Girl I hope too... so are you talking about Glycolic Acid peel? Oh I need that too if it is the peel thing... where can I get it ? And I remember not so long ago I was able to go to the main site of GlutaC products but now it keeps on redirecting me to the funky mommy website.:confused: my feet are spotted too and I noticed that my knuckles started to get dark:mad: so I started exfoliating and applying creams from my "You name it Box" :p

    Is Movate similar to Top Gel?? I also came across a cream called Pohli they said it gives dramatic results if used for underarms and inner thighs areas really fast! Anybody heard of it or tried it before?

    Nope I did Godiva deodrant & cream. It work but it take about a month. I didn't use any soaps s maybe that why it took a while. Darkness come from deodrants, & razors. I wax now that help w darkening. Hydrogen peroxide will help knuckles also.
    In the sun girls. You know you are suppose to wear protective clothing. ANYWAY. White shirts or light cotton sweaters & a hat. JUST COVER up!
    I kept a bottle of sunscreen in my bag. I don't
    I did this before I started the madness... I will even out & contine my protective clothing, hats, shades & loving shaded places.

    Hi mepk5, what do you do with the hydrogen peroxide?

    Thanks

    When I go get facials I noticed they would use hydrogen peroxide. I tried it. It didn't burn but it did lighten my skin. It bleached my eyebrows over a period & facial fuzz

    mepk5, thanks for your reply. Do you just use a cotton bud to apply the hydrogen peroxide? FYI, I've read that HQ reacts with hydrogen peroxide to darken skin.
  • May 1, 2009, 08:28 PM
    mepk5

    It was used as an astringent. I don't know if it will darken but I don't see how. It will bleach your hair, teeth & your skin a little. Try it w a cotton ball on your arm hairs for about 5 days. U will see them turn red. Then if u continue they will turn blonde.cotton ball full.

    Hello Ladies,
    Hello MepK5
    How's it going? I have been away working on my research and thesis... I didn't have time to surf the internet or stop by for an update... so my apologies.

    How's every body lightening coming along? I have actually took different turn and decided to risk it all... the results are satisfying and I can finally show some skin. I am not suppose to do what I did... but I was desprate and had to do something to take me out of of this stress!

    What did I do? I used the same compound my Dr. prescribed and applied it for over a month contiuosuly... I will not recommend it to anyone just seeking lightening... I had to use it to fix what monobenzone and other chemicals messed! I am now using my own mix that I made. I am lightened 3 shades which it wasn't my main purpose! And now using my mix to maintain... so far so good!

    Hope to hear good stories from you girls... and MepK5 I know how you feel... if you ares till suffering I will be more than happy to send you some of what I have to help you get rid of these nasty spots. Good luck everyone!

    Oh my goodness! What is it w mono? U stop that crap & it courses through your body like a snake. Im still getting spots. It has gone to my back behind my thighs now. My spots didn't pop up spot at a time. I saw it under the skin then the next day they were up.

    Send me some photos. Some one suggested menquoil? Or the beno stuff. Im going back to the Dr. & see what he thinks now.
