hello and bonjour all, I had posted in another section and was told to introduce myself as it may allow people to offer better advice if they knew what I was looking for and more information about me.
well herer goes nothing and I am sorry for any typos lol
I was on askemehelpdesk.com looking for information regarding skin lightening tips and advice and amongst all of the spam and scams I came across Golden girl and found her to be quite informative. I asked about different products and she was kind enought to reply with out trying to sell me anything and invited me to join here.
I am very new to skin lightening and at first thought about using monobenzone but after further research discovered it is a skin dipigmentaion and is used for vitiligo patients. I was never really that into skin products and simply used water and soap lol.

[You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]Ever since then I have been less hesitent to spend a little extra on skin care products. After all, your face is the first thing people see and they will judge you on it; it is human nature. I plan to learn as mch as I can about skin care products and all the do's and don'ts. As stated above I plan on lightening my skin with effective but safe products.
A little about me: I am of mixed heritage, my father is half or maybe even less african-american and white French; my mother is american and is of Scandinavian heritage. My great grandfather came to France after WWI and married a white parisian, they had children who then married other native born french people all the way to my father who married my mother; he is the only not married to a french scandalous I know lol. I myself was born and raised here in the states but have always gone back to france to visit family and was raised with french ideas but in english lol. My french is only what I have heard my father say
[You must be registered and logged in to see this image.] In regards to my skin tone, I suppose you could say compare my colour to that of tyra banks or maybe even oprah.More of a light to medium brown skin tone. I would like to get one maybe two shades lighter, I had thought of three but that might be borderline michael jackson white lol.
I look forward to posting here and hope you didn't mind the long post and slight rambling.
