Monobenzone 20% Cream - Day 6

It's almost been a full week since I started using monobenzone 20% cream and my skin seems a little drier then normal so I have been using cocoa butter at night after I shower. Right now, I am focusing on my darkest areas to lighten first and Im glad I get a decent amount of product to be able to use it on my body as well.

I would expect to buy 1 bottle a month if I am using on my entire body. I have also taken some photos of my knees and elbows as a starting point and will post them on a photo sharing website. Anyone that follows my blog will get the password for it so you are see my progress.

Many people keep telling me that mono will give me spots and I understand that it can be a side effect but I will take a chance. I feel that if I do wake up one day with patches, I will just stop using it. This is my last hope as I have tried everything and I need something that is permanent.

I'm not looking to become like Michael Jackson but more like Rihanna skin color. I still want to be considered african american.

I have been applying a thin layer to my skin during the day and night. I feel really good about this cream and I think within 4 weeks I will have the results I am looking for.
