    I've used godiva lipgloss but it only slightly lightened my lips. Now I just put ds crème on my lips. Lol. Don't know if it's working yet though.

    I expected that. :D
    I'm using Fresh Up Skin Pinkish Cream & it's working great! I saw result after 7 days of consistent use! I will post before & after soon. :)

    Godiva only made my lips appear lighter

    I thought it was working for a while until I stopped using it and realized that it didn't acutally lighten my lips, but just made them look lighter.

    So that product you mentioned is working... Good to Know! :)

    The website looks very professional

    So what color were your lips before ?

    Let me know if DS cream work because the active ingredient is kojic acid, right? And Fresh Up contains kojic acid too. :)

    Has anyone else used the fresh up cream for lips?
  • Jan 12, 2008, 05:09 PM
    so sexy
    No I haven't used it but They are giving out free samples. So at least they are giving you a chance to test it before you buy it.

    How big is the sample ?

    I do not know how big the sample is but I'm guessing like most samples, it will probably come in a little sachet.

    I asked a free sample of that fresh up thing. I'm from Philippines, would I have to pay anything, like shipping for example?

    I tried the sample and it works great! I ended up buying 3 tubes of Fresh Up cream (at $119) at Dark Lips Treatment - Use FRESH UP to Lighten Dark Lips, Nipples, Scars and Stretch Marks as it is more cost effective than per piece price of $49. My girlfriends noticed the difference in my pink lip too. It really boosted my confidence. I have also started to use it on my elbow and nipples. This thing does work!
  • Feb 9, 2008, 12:47 AM

    Is it only available online?

    You received the free sample? I still haven't receive the free sample. I actually bought a tube first before requesting for a sample.

    greatpretnder, no it's not only available online. It's available in Hong Kong if I'm not mistaken & distributors brought it online for people around the world to try.

    Me niether.. haven't yet received the sample.. I thought it would take more than a month for the delivery. Can't buy from hk, I'm still a student.. going there would cause me too much..


    Thanks anyway. I'll just wait for their free sample.

    Did you guys get an email to confirm whether they'll send you one or not? I filled up the form online and afterwards I got the message on the screen that I'll receive it in up to 6 weeks etc but I also receive an email from Yahoo saying that my email couldn't be delivered although I never sent them an email via Yahoo just the email address I entered there is a Yahoo one. What does that mean? :confused:

    They don't really send you a sample

    I ordered a sample sent me that lie of an email saying that they shipped it

    They just say that to get people to buy the product

    Which is what I did and I'm using freshup right now

    I ordered godiva lip gloss (piece of ****)

    And still have some left over and I use it in the morning before school

    And I use freshup at night

    I also have some 3% mono cream I ordered from over a month ago

    Does anyone think I should mix the 3% mono and the freshup pinkish cream for better results ?
  • Mar 13, 2008, 01:43 PM
    Gr8stuff
    I don't think using mono for specific areas is a good idea even at 3% but it's only my opinion and I've never even tried mono. Most of the research I've done seems to point to the fact that applying mono in any area over time will result in your whole body depigmenting. Of course I'll be glad if people with experience can prove otherwise.

    As for fresh-up, does it actually work at all?

    Received the sample now... Goshhh!! It's a very small black sachet with a very nice pink Fresh up look alike match booklet- sorry really don't know the exact term I think it is good for two application only. I don't know if I will see some results in two application. The mail stamp came from Malaysia.

    When did you request for the free sample?

    Yes. I got my sample too. But it's so small. LOL.

    I requested mine on late December! Maybe it's because I already ordered the full size.

    I just received my sample (which I ordered 4 months ago)

    Because the sample I ordered was taking so long I just ordered the product

    Which, ironically came 4 weeks later

    I think they were purposely trying to get people to order the product

    Well... I have been using it on and off

    I had lost confidence in the product but I might as well finish what I started

    So I will let you know my results from both the unbelievably small sample and the tube

    It seems alpha arbutin is the safest thing right now, has any one tried it with good results? Can you tell where you got it from? From a licensed chemist?

    I know I want to buy some AA powder too

    But how has the mono process been going for you muna ?
  • Apr 6, 2008, 08:36 AM

    I am switching between 10% mono and mega blast, so far so good

    It's disappointing when you said you'd post pictures and didn't!

    That's what excites people :( lol

    Anyway, I've been using Diana Stalder glutathione soap at night annd applying Vaseline on top of it to give it some moisture.

    It's been working great, here's how I do it https://www.askmehelpdesk.com/skin-l...ml#post1922859 I think everyone can try this!

    All you need is your choice of lightening soap and some vaseline or some type of moisturizer and most of all patience!

    I'm quite persuaded that monobenzone will successfully work to lighten your lips. Your lips are red, pink, etc. due to the absence of general melanin, and presence/visuality of blood cells/vessels.

    A low dilution of mono should gradually deactivate those melanocytes while fading the melanin as well.

    But wouldn't that burn? I thought mono burns?
