    What is the color of vit fee lotion? I am using the one in the ling bottle not the jar. I got to it from a nearby beauty store and the color is scarry dark... its brownish dark, I have never seen a lotion like that. Please if you know the original color tell me or is this just its natural color? The ingredients seem very simple and natural (its the lotion with the fewest ingredients, that's why I like it.) Thanks :-)

    You know Vit Fee isn't a safe lightener,right? It will cause skin thinning. Be careful...

    Sorry to divert a little here...
    There has been some controversy about one of LoanyB's working products-Fair and White Exclusive.
    Guys,does it contain Hydroquinone or NOT?Some says it does... others say it does. Yet,one doesn't see it on the ingredient list...

    I am talking about Fair and White Exclusive-the dark blue bottle.
    I really don't get it.I know the original line has hydroquinone in it and it is clearly written on the ingredient list.So why would they now hide try to hide hydroquinone on this one as if they don't have any product with hydroquinone at all?That is if at all there is hydroquinone in the exclusive line.

    Yes, found out recently that the eclusive whitenizer in the dark blue tube contained 8% hq. I did try contacting the f&w company twice a month or so about the matter of at least 2 of their items being pulled some time ago and if the % has been reduced, but no word from them...

    GG,what about the lotion itself?Does it contain hydroquinone too?If yes... omg,please don't tell me that I have been using 8% hydroquinone on my skin for a month now!
    I sent them an email two days ago asking if the lotion had hydroquinone.They haven't yet said a word.
    Oh God...
    Isn't 8% way too much??

    Okay... wha makes me more confused is this:
    On the Fair and White site,they say-"...with melanin inhibitor,hydroquinone." But on the package,they don't include it!
    Why are they confusing us??
    Take a look!
    Fair & White,Exclusive Whitenizer,Skin Lightening,Skin Whitening,Skin Brightening
    What's going on? The people won't reply me! And to think I am a fan! They are so lucky that at least the freaking thing works!

    I thought that was suppose to be their stronger but non-hydroquinone line of skin lighteners:confused: If the site says it contains HQ I'm thinking it does, I've only tried the Exclusive Whitening Soap, it's a BIG soap with Huge chunks of apricots!

    I was told years ago by another company the Original Lightening Serum
    (serum eclairciassant) contained 5%hq but only reported 2.5% on the label.
    The site claimed 5% "lightening complex", I e-mailed and asked what that was, I needed information not some unknown ingredient called "lightening complex".
    Turned out to be plane old HQ, nothing special.

    Ouchhh! Pinch me someone! Tell me I am dreaming and in a few secs,I will be up! I know that the other line has HQ... but the exclusive line... Oh my,tell me that I have not been caressing my skin with hq for a month now!! OUCHHH!!

    HQ is not a bad thing! Lol You'll be all right!:)
    But I think these products are hq based, it's hard to get a straight answer sometimes.
    You'll have to go to their site and try to get answers, there are a lot of fake Fair and White products around and who knows what they might contain.

    I always start to see results within two weeks of using a skin lightener and adding Retin A made it so much better.

    Where can I buy retin A
