    My Wife works for clinque and uses their whitening whatevers and more importantly uses there sun block thingys all year round and friends and family on her return didn't recongise her. Im told you need to follow the three steps (whatver they are)
    But the only reason she keeps the sun off her is for health reasons. As with smoking and drinking the sun is the worse thing that most people encounter in their lifetime for their skins.

    The only age reducing creams that are said to work are ones that stop the sun damaging the skin.

    Im sure i got some of that wrong but basically use sun block and stay out of the sun.

    I find it strange why you want to be white. Asian counties are becoming obsessed with it, and it is a bad trend.White actors getting paid more in India because they have paler skin. C'mon!

    http://www.independent.co.uk/news/wo...ia-863936.html

    Slimming pills are complete nonsense.They are not licenced for use in this country because there is no proof they work. I would not trust that. Please read this

    http://www.nhsdirect.nhs.uk/articles...articleId=1137

    As for skin whitening, every 30 days the skin renews itself.

    A good point you could be breaking the law if in posseion of certain pills and also remeber if you go though a middle eastern country if they contain certain chemicals you could have major problems.
    Wasn't there a lady from the Uk who had a pill with a chemical which was banned in dubai but ok in the Uk i think codeine and had major problems but i cant remeber the outcome.

    your right andy, some of them whitening products were banned in the uk or found to be dangerous

    not worth the risk of damaging the skin on your face

    YOu can check from ebay, here in Phil been famous about it but in order to verified product it should be BFAD approved and tested by some expert about the gluthatione content
    Don't make promises when you are in JOY. Don't reply when you are SAD.
    Don't take decisions when you are ANGRY. Think twice, Act wise. BE happy.

    None of them have been tested long term, and as they adjust at the cell level, you only need one cell to reproduce with a misaligned DNA molecule and you've got cancer. But they daren't put that on the label.

    Brown skin is regarded as the best in the world, otherwise why when the Sun appears in the Western world, we all strip off to get a tan?

    Culture

    The theory is

    The "higher class wealthier" bods in the west have time to tan and go on holidays and not stuck in a factory or office.

    In the old days pale was desired in UK as it meant you are rich and did not have to work outside. Places like Phill and India the poor are normally those that HAVE to go out in the sun.

    The phrase beauty is skin deep comes to mind. These products comes with personal risk.Thats why you cannot find it,because it has been banned for use in this country. Getting it anywhere else the tablets or creams, you will not know what chemicals are contained within. Trust me I am a chemist.Did you read any of the links we gave you?

    Girls thought tanning was wonderful. Now booths are being banned because of a rise of cancer. Personal choice?Its harder to be yourself than follow a trend. This must be a vanity thing if its personal preference.What would u feel if you are ill because of this. Ask your boyfriend
