I have used this cream as this was recommended by my friends. But soon I realized I am digging hole in my pocket. There is nothing like permanent fairness. This cream provides you temperary fairness for maximum 1-2 hours. And later everything restores the darkness , acnes etc. Basically this cream provides a mask or a layer of a cream which makes you look fair for sometimes but soon this cream evaporates and really come out from no where. Its not sticky thats a good thing about it , though it has nice fragrance , it smells good. It is costier than many of the fairness product in the market. I wouldnt recommend this cream for you guys. You can use any natural product not this type of hazordous cosmetics.
