Has anyone tried African Queen Beauty cream , Super Strength for skin lightening , and if you have can you please tell me about your experience with this cream.
I tired the mj cream on my body and saw no eresults... waste of my money.
I tried the mj cream and "special cream" that the company offers and neither did a thing for me.
Anyone tried the other ones?
I used the Super Strength skin lightening cream and it worked out pretty well, I'd say about two shades lighter. The first jar I bought from eBay and next jar I called the store in the Bronx? Somewhere in New York, they also have a website.
This cream has a lot of imitations/copy cats so I would only purchase if it came from New York. I think this product has high concentrations of hydroquinone.
I never used it before but I used their GEL.. it lightened me a lot.. my face peeled and lightened in week(one of the best gels I eer used).. unfortunately the store I bought it stopped selling it.. I was so mad... finally found it online two weeks ago,bought it and I am back to using it... so happy... lol
Here it is

I'm looking forward to seeing your pictures. Thanks!
My sister used to use the MJ in NY religiously and had good results!
Does anyone know about what percentage of hq is they use?

Rita for dark hands and feet.
I opened up the jar while still in my car, I took one whiff to see how the cream smelled, luckily I was at the red light. My head whipped back so fast! Lol Oh my goodness did this cream just burn my nose off? It had a really, really STRONG smell.
It smelled like the Melalite 4%hq cream but 50 times stronger! I could have hit someone if I was driving. Lol It was a off white cream with small black dots of something, it sort of looked like vanilla bean ice cream. Who knows how much hydroquinone and what else was in it.
I didn't you use, I chickened out and threw it away. Lol
Do you think they use more than 4% hq? And I wonder what caused the black dots, weird?
I remember a member mentioning that the African Queen products smelled soooo great :confused:
I think I mentioned it, the SuperStrength Cream smelled real good.Quote:

I ordered that cream years ago!!
There just might be more than 4% in the cream, it sure did smell like it.
LOL that happened to me with the bio-claire when I had mixed oil in with it! Haa
With Bio Claire, the smell was very strong when I opened it. BC smells like what it is, toxic.
The bioclaire that I used had almost no order and did absolutely nothing for me. I had the body lotion and crème.
I meant it had no odor.
My guess is that yours could have been really outdated and became ineffectivesince BC has a very strong and distinct odor, which is a positive.Quote:

However extreme caution has to be taken when using BC. It is steroid based and causes thinning of the skin and stretch marks for some and that's only some of the results that have happened. Please read through the info on this board before ordering.
Mine was white as well. I doubt you would get fake BC as it is already cheap and it is a large quantity. I believe it tends to be the more expensive products like makari, where it becomes worthwhile to sell knock-offs.Quote:

I've read some of Guesso's products may not be authentic.
That would be really bad if it's true. That company has an extensive range and are clearly popular on the net. I know I have purchased from them before but they changed their policy several years ago and no longer sell to the UK. Well if it is fake products, I am glad I had to take my business else where.
The thing with Guesso at the time when I saw them selling African Queen products is they had more products then the African Queen site themselves. Lol
Right now they are down to MJ white products but what they had on sell before was MJ yellow, mj pink and mj white and they had a bar of soap to match each of those creams, a pink bar of soap, a yellow bar of soap and a white bar of soap. They also had lotions, a Pink lotion, yellow lotion and white mj lotion.
I have never seen those products on the African Queen site. Now someone posted a pic of MJ white gel. I have yet to see the African Queen gel sold on the site. So where is guesso getting their Queen products I don't know... and I don't know if those products are the real deal.
nikkicute,
That was funny! More products than the manufacturer actally makes!! What is going on?
I don't know what's going on. It just brings me back to hearing some of their products might be fake, I mean it wouldn't be hard for another company to duplicate the African Queen labels if they really wanted to, it's not a hard label to copy.
Yeah, that does that sound suspicious. More products than the maker themselves. Well, I have heard of Guesso many times, but have never purchased from them before.
That's where I purchased my BioClaire, so maybe it was fake. I'm glad it was cheap.
As far as guesso is concerned I remember when I ordered something online and they were out, they called me and checked to see if I wanted to switch when I asked them when the next batch would be ready they told me that since my product was international they had problems with the customs or their overseas manufactor or something like that, I personally don't think that any product I have ordered from them is fake, I they are usaully good with customer service, and I recently ordered from them last week, when they sent my track number they reminded that I should go online and rate them, so they are always updating, I just say this to mean that I have never had a problem with guesso.
The only reason I think my because was not genuine is becaue most people who said it worked for them all complained of a very strong odor from the cream/lotion. These people all had lightening results, whether good or bad, they still had results. There were others who purchased their product from Guesso that said that like my cream it had no odor at all ( a slight fresh clean odor), but just like me, the product did absolutely nothing for them. So I don't know if bioclaire had some products that had no active ingredients or they weren't real bioclaire products.
I have obtained Bio Claire from several different outlets in the past and all of them had a fairly strong distinct odour.
Exactly, that's why I think the one I bought was not genuine.Quote:
