31 years old, can i use the lightening cream you recommended?

by F

Hi! it's F here, thanks for adding my question to your web page, it will help others i am sure. is the lightening cream ok to use as i am 31 years old? I pluck my upper lip hairs and shave my chin. maybe that is the reason why the areas are darker than the rest.


I have been prescribed vaniqua (Eflornithine) from my GP (physician). It is a hair growth inhibitor cream. It is the only one that actually works, all the rest do not work, they are just a waste of money, i cannot believe companies who make and supply them get away with selling them on the open market.

It absolutely sickens me, but i guess this applies for everything that is sold. competition is fierce. just like there hundreds and hundreds of whitening creams out there whom all claim to work miracles. i do lots and lots of research before i try something for the first time. i use to pluck everyday, i have been using vaniqa for 2 years now and i now pluck twice a week only. i have been using the cream every day, i now use it 3 times a week. if i stop using it the hairs will grow back very quickly. i would definitely recommend vaniqa to anyone who shaves, waxes or plucks their facial hair.

Answer:

Hi F, sure you can use the lightening cream and apply daily. You'll experience some skin peeling to get rid of the dark skin layer. When this happens, reduce application to every other day because the mouth area is thin and sensitive. After you reach the desired results, maintenance can only be 1-2x a week application.

Thank you for that tip about Vaniqua. I'm sure it would help people who are looking for a hair inhibitor cream.
