Not to take away from Ladonna's thread but I have noticed she hasn't returned for a long time after a few posts. I have also noticed a lot of people asking Ondine for sources of HQ4% and Retin-a which means a lot of people like myself have jumped on the bandwagon and are now using these products. So i thought it will be a good idea if those of us using these products will share our experiences and progress.
As for me, I started using both at the end of March and I have to say my skin has improved big time. All my blemishes, spots and scars are nearly gone and trust me, i had lots of them scattered all over my face and I will say i'm definitely one shade lighter. As i have described myself in another post, my pre retin-a & hq 4% color is identical to that of Alicia keys when she looks tan and my color now is her color when she looks light. No burns, no blotches, no uneven tones, just dryness from retin-a which gets resolved with carrier oils and ointments. I also use the st lika's papaya soap (thanks to Jose) and on days that i take a break from HQ, i use my DIY vitamin c serum.
I am very happy with results and will keep you posted.
Please if you are using the same, kindly post your results to encourage of LOL discourage others
