What did Meagan Good use in 2019?

I completely forgot I used this site 13 (!) years ago hahaha. I'm on a new journey this year. I used the search function and I see that nobody started a conversation about Meagan Good's bleaching in 2019. She got a LOT lighter and gave some PR spin excuse that she used a bad product from an unlicensed esthetician to try to lighten a scar. Can you imagine "accidentally" lightening up that much?

Forehead Nose Cheek Smile Skin


Wondering if anyone has any ideas on what she used? My natural color is in between these 2 shades, and she got lighter than me! I'm just trying to get from a Beyonce to a Meghan Markle shade. Currently I'm doing Cindella IV drip twice a week (I bought 20 sessions, used 4 so far) as well as kojic and papaya soap, sunscreens, The Ordinary lactic acid couple times a week for exfoliation, The Ordinary alpha arbutin serum, niacinamide, azelaic acid... and retin A sparingly.

I agree, this is exactly why I stopped using HQ. It always gives the "bleached out" look eventually and the results only look kinda decent with makeup.

What do you use now?
I use kojic acid based products only. HQ gives you that initial boost but kojic acid gives you the evenness. Mitchell brands has great stuff. I like geisha beauty secrets a lot.

I don’t think her results look bad, to me it looks even at least. I think she got a lot of crap because it was so drastic of a change and obvious that she bleached.

If she lightened to that shade before the fame I don’t think people would’ve said anything.
hm, if you watch her interview on the real you can see how unnatural her undertone looks compared to the rest of the ladies. i like to avoid that look as much as possible personally.

I just bought the papaya lotion since it has both arbutin and kojic. Does Geisha lighten you? Or more maintain you? Since it only has Kojic I think?
geisha did lighten me, especially during the pandemic. you have to be very consistent with it. i miss g&g lotion and oil. those were miracle workers for me.

her face is lighter than her body which is always the dead giveaway of HQ usage in my opinion. she was never dark skinned so HQ being naturally brown can take you far. i love her shade and undertone now it's warm but she is lighter than the early 2000s most def.
