    Skin chart, which tone are you?
    Hi, this chart was done by lovely lady but she left skin lightening forums now. It is very useful tool to refer when we talk about skin tone

    It's my natural colour. I would just like it to be a lot more even.

    Hi Sara,

    I got your response back in the email. I am still maintaining my nice light brown color, and I am very pleased with it. I am not on a regular mono regimen and haven't been for over a year, but I do touch ups on spots here and there occasionally with no problems. I am just getting on with life these days, living my normal day to day.

    I do have some exciting news and tidbits about my experience to share with you. I don't know if I am allow to get or send PMs with my low post count. But my email will suffice for now, I will check it more often.

    congratulations

    Hi Mpek, perhaps you may try PMing me. I don't want to derail the topic of the thread. And I am also not actively seeking to turn uninformed people on to mono if they can at all resist the temptation. I may end up doing that if I selectively share my positive experience with it. I would much rather be blunt and open with the possible good, bad, and ugly, despite the good results of my own personal journey. It's definitely not a one-size-fits-all chemical.

    I understand. I'm still using mono BA mix my fault I mixed in herbal inn products which I feel may have affected the mono. I can't say anything bad about MONO. It work better than BA. I won't order from mono.net, herbal inn.
    So that is that. After this last batch I'm done. The drama surrounding mono & BA. Too much.
    Is it mono? Is it sand? LOL I'm afraid of the companies. The people that recommend them may all be in on the scam( or sales) knowing the products don't work.

    Mpek5,

    My apologies, I thought somehow that there was a Private messaging capability on this forum. I either don't have access to that yet, or it just isn't here.

    In any case, 'bcnu_dd at Yahoo dot com' is how you can reach me for any serious questions you have. Like Sara, I am also a chemist, so I feel that I am somewhat equipped to answer some of the inquiries.

    I think I'm about a 7.5 but can't tell if I'm red or olive.

    I heard you can be able to tell depending on the color your veins look on your wrist. If they look more blue then you're a red, if the veins look really green then you're an olive, something like that. I had also went to a couple of makeup artists at the mall for them to test for me and give me a free sample of makeup.

    Thanks gg.. hmm they're definitely green

    I am olive tone either 5 or between 5 and 6...
  • Oct 11, 2009, 07:36 PM
    Golden_Girl
    Then Eggo your most likely an olive tone. When I see your avatar I think of the commercial from back in he day "leggo my eggo!", ha ha I used to say that to my brothers when they were eating eggos.

    Desikudi 5 or 6 is nice, is that after lightening or are you trying to reach a lighter level?
  • Oct 11, 2009, 07:52 PM
    EggoMini

    Same here! "leggo my eggo!" that was right up there with the BattleShip toy commercial and Life cereal "..He likes it, he likes it!"

    I saw a crazy recipe the other day with Eggos and cheese.. looked good and sort of gross at the same time.. lol!

    So, I've been obsessing over Eggos ever since but I keep forgetting to add them to the grocery list. I haven't eaten one in years. Lol!

    Oh yeah, I just joined SCT... I have the same user i.d. there.

    Skin Care Talk - Discussion Forums, Advice, Tips & Product Reviews

    There's some pretty good lightening info over there too.
  • Oct 11, 2009, 08:06 PM
    Golden_Girl
    Lol... I haven't had one in years too but they taste really good. I don't know about the cheese and eggos? I like both, but together does sound kind of gross but who knows? I had it with chocolate syrup before :). I have heard good things about SCT, then maybe they would know about the whitening deoderant?
