    my dream color:

    I have an obsession with pale skin although I'm really not TERRIBLY dark to begin with! MY question is.. should I go the mono route or do you think another less-risky strategy could work for me? Thanks in advance! :)

    Why would you want to treat your skin if you don't have a skin disease? You should accept your skin the way it is. People always want what they don't have. People with pale skin spend hours in the sun to get a little tan, people with curly hair want straight hair and vice versa. Why do you want to risk the side effect when you don't have the need to use the drugs?

    Bebo,I was a kanye west shade before and my elder sister was even darker thst was about 2years ago,most of these lightening creams are originally made in congo even if they put made in italy,the original creams are qiet strong,if the box says 2%that means it contains between 4and 8% of the active chemical.
    One thing you should know people.have diffent types of skin,what works for you might not work for me.For the past two years,I have used over 20 different creams on different parts of my body.I.have always wanted to do this type of bussness but I did not know how to go on about it,so I decided to experiment on myself.All the creams I sell I buy them in africa and I have used then and have worked for me.Since these creams are original they don't come cheap,altenatively I mix them for a customer instead of them buying single tubes,

    Bebo,i.used mono only on my hands to get rid of dark knuckles,my knees,my feet and bums.Now my hands and feet are clear, not white because when got my desired shed I stopped,people who become white its either they want to depig completely or they just don't know when to stop.Me and my sister we are really doing well with this bussness because our customers are satisfied with the results because like I said our creams are not fake.Right now we are testing the mono on 2 of our couragous friends before we start selling it,one of them is peeling already she is using it on her inner thighs(the peeling is minimal)IT IS EVERY Woman's DESIRE TO LOOK its just that they don't say,if you have any questions don't hesitate to ask.

    Many of the results are uneven and bad, just Google it with terms like uneven or bad or disfigured and see what comes up.

    Perhaps money may be better spent on counseling on learning to be happy with yourself, To find ways to understand you are special and perfect just the color you are.

    Yes, I don't believe in tanning booths either, and they can be dangerous, but not near as dangerous as the chemicals that are bought, normally illegally since they are done without prescriptions, from companies out of the country.

    So yes, people have a unhealthy addiction to change,

    And I dare to since it is to me the truth, people have bought into a TV, movie idea of what is good or bad.
    If people took time to learn to be happy with themselves, instead of always wanting to change, and use that money and energy to be productive in things that really mattered, we may start to improve the world, not changes in skin color

    Hi,
    I wanted to know more about Benoquin.
    My first question: Does is cause cancer or other skin diseases, or is it safe to use a little concentration of it?

    Secondly: I am a Pakistani by origin, but I'm not very dark skinned as I've got a Kashmiri mother. I want my skin to be lighter, if I want "nearer to" a Caucasian white skin without skin damages or harm what is your advice? Pure white or what? Please advise me on this.

    Thirdly:
    Is it when your skin is COMPLETELY depigmented that you never get dark again, or you don't get dark again even if your not completely depigmented and are just shades lighter? Meaning, do you have to maintain your skin colour once you start getting lighter or not?

    Lastly:
    Can you use Benoquin after laser hair removal on your body?

    Four questions, detailed answers please! I'm scared of getting diseases, don't want to make my life a living hell. I mean, even of you don't look bad and are using it wisely, there is a chance of you getting a disease in the future isn't it?
    P.S. I'd love a reply from anyone, but I would also like lovie1's and Vahid's reply. Also, lovie1 can you please send me your before and after pictures? Here's my email address: >Removed<

    Thank you, please try answering all of my questions.

    Answers from all of you will be welcomed!
    Thank you.
