hey saniya.. i was wondering whether or not you could assess what i do daily to make my skin fair.

at birth i was v.fair but i have turned darker as the years went on. anyhow, i treated my light brown complexion with application of honey + lemon for a period of 2 months. this proved successful but as i was running out of time during the day, i turned to over-night remedies. hence, i have started to apply a past of alomond + milk.. which again is proving to be successful! :D

recently, i placed an order for a herbal whitening cream; from a japanese reputed brand. it contains no harmful chemicals other than herbals such as fruit acdids and beeswax. best of all, no hydroquinone!

am i doing the right thing to my skin? sorry, i forgot to mention it is dry/combination. as with the whitening cream.. how long do i use it to see results? and once achieved, may i continue using it?

thanks in advance xxxx saniya replied. dear neha,
this cream is available here in the market and i have seen it many times.its priced very low and really dont trust it.u may use it if u like..but i still think that natural remedies will provide much safer and beter results.u can again ask ur derm regarding the side effects and skin compatibility.it may not suit ur skin so please be completely sure that its the right thing for u.
with best wishes and lots of luv,

thanks for ur thanks!is that cream called yoko 7 days whitening cream?do let me know asap! saniya replied. hi neha,
if ur 100% sure then i suppose its alright.but im still against it!i just dont like all those products out there especially cuz most of them are fake.but as u have mentioned that ur dermatologist recommended it to u and many other people have advised u to use it as well,i dont find any harm in trying it.go ahead.its safer to use just one thing.while ur using the cream,dont consider anything else.either use the cream,or the home remedies as i still believe the cream cannot be trusted upon for its natural content.it may have slight traces of chemicals.can u please tell me the name of the cream so that i may let u know if anyone else has used it and gained any benefit?and besides,if the cream is herbal,and has those ingredients like lemon,aloe vera,tomato,etc..then y r u wasting ur money?u can mix the ingredients at home and use that mask!but tell u what?not all creams suit every skin.for example,lemon does not suit dry skin as it further dries it.similarly,oils dont suit oily skin.probably that cream has almond oil etc..which will increase the oiliness of ur skin.please make sure the ingredients suit ur skin or else in the pursuit of ur dreams of getting fair,u wont just be destroying ur skin,u will also be ruining ur life and later on,u will regret.please let me know the name of the cream.i may have some info regarding it.best of luck and take care sweetheart!
with best wishes and lots of luv,
ur frnd,

but i am 100% certain that the cream i ordered is of a herbal formula. my dermatologist suggested it to me when i claimed i would only apply natural products to my face for whitening. it has proved to be a v. successful cream, hence many people have recommended it for my use :D
best of all, its not pricey so doesnt burn a hole in my pocket.

i am still applying the paste on my face overnight! when i receive the cream.. is it possible for me to stick to both regimes? i.e. paste and cream? i assumed that may speed up the process but i am not 100% sure.

anyhow, thanks for your time and effort.
love always.
Neha xx saniya replied. dearr..if ur satisfied wit the remedies,u dont have to order any fairness cream.u c sometimes they r fake and its just a big lie that they contain no chemicals at all just to make people want to buy those creams.and anyways,it is advisable to use just one particular thing or stick to just one particular regime.u may continue using the almond and milk paste.and best of all.home remedies can be relied upon for thier saftey and effectiveness.the japanese cream u are ordering might contain chemicals and when those chemicals would lighten ur skin,u would feel that its natural magic!but it wont be an du would suffer the side effects.and u can never guarantee the compatibiliy of the cream with ur skin while u can chose natural remedies which suit ur skin.im against that cream in short.the rest is upto u,after all,its u who would be using it!best of luck...be natural,be beautiful!
