what are you doing to keep your new color ? I cant wait till your products launch im just wanting 2 lighten about 2 shades. what do you recommend once your products launch and are they expensive ?

[DivineDivaSkincare]

@aa60508 Hi in order to maintain my color I use our 4% cream with steroids as well as the body peel. Since you don't want to lighten significantly and only intend on going up to shades, I would recommend the 2% hydroquinone cream without steroids as well as a mask and body peel. The products will not be to expensive, I promise (haha).

@DivineDivaSkincare whats the 4 percent cream you use?

[DivineDivaSkincare]

@xtina136 The 4% cream is hydrogold with steriods. Thanks!

thank you for the advice on skin lightening! You make it so easy and inspiring, especially since there's not much helpful information about lightening skin. I have one question, what sunscreen do you reccommned i use?  i dont get sunburned easily, but i would like to know since i am lighteining my skin. Thanks

[DivineDivaSkincare]

@808lehuanani Thanks so much, I am glad I can help! I think that the best recommendation would be any sunscreen with an SPF of at least 30 as well as a sunscreen which contains zinc oxide. Too much zinc oxide, in some sunscreens can appear ashy on the skin. I think it would be best to go to the store and search for a sunscreen with both SPF 30 and zinc oxide and feel the lotions to check for dryness and white cast "or the ashy look" at the store (if they have testers).

@sabrinabig889 well i find it sad when white women tan themselves and inject silicone in their lips to look more ethnic and inject fat to their hips and buttocks.. so you don't know what youre even talking about.. she's not trying to be white...maybe latino

[olivieraaa]

looll you're funny; "coca cola, fanta thing going on" lool

[Sweets509]

@sabrinabig889 get the fuck off and go and post your nasty comments Om obese people and comment on urself I checked out ur Facebook page and honey not only are u fat but you have horrible acne scars and ur hair is thin and short u have a lot more problems then us colored folks how about researching a physician for your gastric bypass surgery and a dermatologist you pimple face

[Sweets509]

@sabrina889 its not that we hate our skin I'm black and damm proud of it but if I have to option to change my skin tone around to different shades why not, its that the beauti of being colored we can play around with it... You just jealous cause ur white and u can't paint urself to be another color except for a tan. It's no different from u guys tanning to achieve another color, so stay on ur white side and let us colored folks play around with our melanin sorry if I hurt ur feelings....

Hello Hawa I am from the state of Florida where the sun can be really harsh on our skin, which can make me darker over the yrs. I absolutely love you skin, I just found out about the products your using and would love to know how do I start ordering immediately, and can't wait. I read some the comments and just wanted to tell u those haters are just jealous at ones success and dnt let the develish comments bring u down cuz u have people like us to bring u right back up.

@sabrinabig889 how do u know she wants to be white maybe she wants to look Asian Latin or just have fair skin. But u should tell ur white friends to stop tanning n just be pale n have blotchy skin. Ppl just want to have glowy skin n honestly black ppl have beautiful skin and they look like they don't age.. N by the way I'm not white or black

[afroblack1000]

@dasinga20 . Ur welcome

[dasinga20]

@afroblack1000 yeah i agree wit everything u said about self hatred. All im saying is if it looks like someone hates themself already, what sense does it make to further complete the process by tlking about her?(not saying u are doing that cuz I ddnt read all this)I totally agree with u she shld love the skin she is in. No what she doing shld not be encouraged in my opinion, but obviously she dnt need to be cursed out and tlkd about like some of the pple are doing. Thx for ur response though.
