how to use hydroquinone

With a product this strong and effective, being consistent is what will help see results and possibly avoid any negative effects. Hydroquinone will always produce desired results. It is important to use products as instructed by the doctor or package. If you are unsure about the level of sensitivity your skin has, test the product to see how your skin reacts the next day or coming days. If you do not react negatively to the agent, you may add it to your daily skincare routine.

You want to apply the product on clean skin and as a base, so before any moisturiser. This will help the product absorb in your skin as best as possible and work on rejuvenating. Product should be applied evenly and gently throughout the skin.

You can and should still apply sunscreen on top of this product. Hydroquinone seem to be very sensitive to major sun exposure and excessive amounts of sun may reverse the product working within the skin. Sunscreen will help protect your skin as well as the treatment of hydroquinone working within the skin.

Hydroquinone is very effective. If you do not see visible results within 3 months of constant use, it is best to stop using the product. It could be the product of choice that does not have an effective level of hydroquinone, if other products don’t work it is advisable to try other brightening methods.

Hydroquinone is also known to cause temporary side effects. If you have sensitive skin, Hydroquinone causes dryness and redness at first. Some people eventually get used to it after a few consistent uses but that does not apply for every skin type.

In very rare cases, hydroquinone has been said to cause ochronosis. Ochronosis, a rare disease that causes pigmentation on face, neck and photo-exposed areas. This normally occurs after excessive daily use, after results have shown. Product is advised to use five months at a time.

hydroquinone thoughts

Although the product is now avoided by a number of beauty product suppliers, the agent seems to be able to get desired results effectively when used properly. It is important to test the product before committing due to a large number of people being allergic to hydroquinone and causing uncomfortable side effects.

If you are looking for brightening products and are afraid to commit to any products with hydroquinone for the time being, we highly recommend using our number one product – Amaira Natural Lightening Serum. Amaira skincare does not contain any hydroquinone elements and only uses natural ingredients such as kojic acid, mulberry extract, bearberry extract and more.
