I would like to know this information too

I was actually thinking about purchasing a couple bottles of HQ to alternate with my Tonqiue so it can last longer...

Right now I am trying to decided to try tonique or just order more HQ too.

tonique intrigues me also so i understand your problem

but if HQ is working for you stick to HQ

why disturb progess by the angst to try new products,when you have already found a regimen that works great already

Are you trying to lighten your whole body? With tonique that would be expensive to do at $99 a pop,unless you alternate with HQ..which is what I plan on doing starting the new year

haiji

Has anyone used,tonique on here with good results,i may be going to that soon?

inamorati

Does tonique thin skin like Fair and Flawless?

MAHARANI

I don't know about thinning the skin, but it irritated the hell out of my skin.

MAHARANI

What sort of results are you achieving and how long have you been using it?

justlooking

inamorati

-Your purging the breakouts are normal and should be expected
-To reduce irritation such as itching read LightenNlift's sticky thread on the proper use of Retinoids
http://www.skincaretalk.com/skin-lig...retinoids.html
-Your face stinking is most likely the combination of all the products your using..remember to cleanse everyday with a gentle cleanser such as Cetaphil
-Investing in a toner such would be great,check out this useful thread

-If you have senstive skin and aren't reacting to it well yes RA 0.1% is too strong,its always best to start at the lowest percentage then work your way up
