I have been debating with myself about gettingPalmer's Eventone Fade Cream for a while now after reading someone (I think from LiberianGirl) state it was a good product...









...I want to know what everyone thinks. I have a few blemishes in my skin, as well as razor burn from shaving, that I would like to treat somehow. The blemishes and razor burn are all a bit darker than my regular skin complexion. You should all know, I am not trying to bleach my skin; hence why I am weary about using it.

If you know of a better skin product, then please share. Oh yeah, and don't tell me to use shea butter, because thatwith black seed oil is a part of my dailyskin regiment. I just have this one isolated problem with uneven skin coloration in a few places. Thanks for reading...

Shemsi....first off, bleaching cream it ain't.....as to weither it will help you with the blemishes, well me don't know. If you do have money, i suggest you go and see a (word of mouth he is THAT good BLACK) dermatologist who specialises on our skins. Reason i say this is because i have used that palmers' cream before and i never saw any result. Our skin can be too complex, it might have worked with LiberianGirl, but i can also say that over 10 of us tried it and it didn't work.

Maybe you might need treatments over a period oftime to treatyour skin from the razor burn...:?

I don't know about their creams but I tried the soap once to get rid of a discoloration and it didn't bleach my skin. However, it wasn't very effective in treating the problem. Eventually I justdiscarded it and got a facial scrub and a soy based cream. This combinationtreatment workedsuperbly,it not only got rid of the discolorationbut it also made my skin glow.Obviously, my suggestion is that you find a facial scrub for men and get yourself some soy cream to use after washing your face with the scrub.

Good luck.niceone.gif

Yes in some waysit did work for me. If you want to get rid of something like acne blemishes then this isa good product,however,if you arelooking for something that will even out the dark areas of your complexion then this is nottheproduct for you.Palmers works to fade things like acne blemishes, newly formed scars, but it wont really work forgeneral skintoneuneveness as it did not work in those instances for me.Also if thescars arevery old then you can forget Palmers, you'll needMerderma for that.But for my blemishes I applied it about twice aday and it took about amonth to see results. If your looking for instant results thenI suggest you skip this product and try some scar fading gel Mederma, which, mind you, for one tube is like 20 dollars.Its designed to fade surgery scars, butI have heard from many that it works very well, as it should since its so damn expensive.

I havent triedother Palmers products, but I suggest you try the creamjust to see how it works, as it only costs about5 dollars.confused3Possibly if you use the whole line of products you may see better results vs. just using the cream.confused2



Also I know bleaching cream has a bad rep here,but I have heard it can be useful for evening out skintone IF applied properly and by thatImean not applying it to thetheunaffected areassimplyfor lightening,and theHydroquinone percentage is not too high(2%, should be the max).The horror stories that you usually hear about bleaching creams are the ones in which people are using creams where the hydroquinone is too high, and on top of that applying way too much to the skin, thus causing sever damage to themselves when exposed to sun.



Also if you want to be natural about it, you can also try lemons, not sure how well this will work though.

Damn, we got some serious chemist and pharmacists in the house.

@Shemsi,I don't have razor bumps for years. The best trick is to wash the face with warm water first, then apply the shaving cream. Shave only in one direction, i.e, from one side of the face to the other or from left to right. I never change directions of shaving, always the same direction from left to right all the way. This works for me and you will not have any razor bumps. If you already do that then dis-regard this note.

Is This BLEACHING CREAM or A Good Skin Complexion Product???



Probably not. I hear the sun is good for complexion.

if it had Hydroquinone in it stay well away. thus its th same as bleaching stuff...

check the ingredients

also i dont agree with earlier poster....research has proven that even 2% of hydroquinone damages skin beyond repair which is why such products can only be bought illegally here

@ shemsi....have you tried exfoliation. you canget the exfoliation gloves

not for getting 100% pure unrefined shea butter thats meant to be good for scars so is pure cocobutter tho shea butter easier to work with

www.sheabuttercottage.co.uk nothing ventured nothig gained

ps dont know anyine who uses any product that says fade so cant really advise about thatproduct.

do be careful tho cos some of palmers products do have hydroquinone in them (thats if tey aint caught up with the times
