| | body lightening issues
ok so my face has lightened significantly!
but body is so stubborn.
right now i doing ra/hq only.
i use ra every other night, and my some parts of my body has peeled, but the new skin that show is red.
i'm confused when will it turn to brown my skin color, or a lighter brown?

i meant lactic acid peels instead of RA.
is there anything just as effective as RA but won't irritate my skin like RA does?

| My logic is:Use RA where it counts (your face/neck) and Carotein for body use to peel and then lighten.I doubt my mid-section,legs and back need RA's anti-aging benefits right now but thats just me |

GoddessOfEarth used the carotein & the Nadinola extra strength to get her amazing results. She's posted many photos showing her results. Remarkable! She said that the carotein cream did an excellent job of exfoliating & acted as a penetrant for the Nadinola. She went from a deep chocolate brown to a fair Tyra Banks tone.

| This is the route I am now following. I am just waiting on my Carotein to come....  
Hopefully this will kick things into action.

I love Carotein, its the best glycolic acid cream with vitamins and antioxidants out there, it exfoliates very gently and removes the impurities needed but restores moisture and gets rid of flaws, does exactly what it says and also its by switzerland and they are the best in skin care, above all its a huge size for a very very affordable 6 to 7 dollars that lasts a whole year used on the face and neck. I stopped using Retin-a a week ago and have been using Carotein every day to my surprise, I dont even get anymore razor bumps, I'm clear and smooth. Love this stuff |

So is Carotein just like Retin-A, like does it exfoliate so that lightening cream's such as Hydroquinone 4% can help lighten new fresh skin?
Im new to skin lightening and still doing some research.
Also LNL, can Retin-A be used on the body or is it just for the face and neck?

Okay, so I haven't posted in a long time (prefer lurking mostly...LOL) but with regards to the carotein; I have been using GOE's regimen for several months now, but since I can't order on line I buy my products from my local beauty supply store. Now, they don't carry the carotein fairness cream jar, but they have the rest of the line. I have been using the gel, (seems to work EXACTLY like R-A from the descriptions i've read) and then i use the nadinola on top. sometimes i mix them to save time. But really Skin Nouveau's ENTIRE line of products is superior, IMHO. because of the gel, my acne is pretty much GONE. I use there body lotion to, when i want a quick break but need to maintain my results @ the same time. So hopefully this helps Manay, or anyone really. I want the fairness cream to, and I'm sure i'll find it and get, but that gel is the most powerful i think, in there line, it seems to make the nadinola penetrate the skin very deeply, ( it has alot of acids) anyway I'll make a better post, later, because i've researched and have been this using this on my ENTIRE body since September of 2009 and I've gotten tremendous results. more than I realized, 'til i visited family, and i look ALOT lighter than b4. but any way, hope this helps so far. And I'll try to make a better post with links and stuff if I can. but you guys are not restricted to only the fairness cream, really pretty much everything (ecept the lotion) can be used with the nadinola. and your results will be sick....lmao
