Hi joey,
I have tried Biotherm Spot Corrector. A bit ex, but can use for a long time. It helps for the first bottle, but it doesn't work that well for the second. Maybe you can try. Me now switching to Chanel Whitening essence. Hope it works for me. I have quite a lot of freckles on my face. : (

I also have a lot of freckles and brownish scars on my face from squeezing zits.Has anybody tried the Skin Doctor fade away pigmentation lotion (about $55) or Fade Out($20 plus) that's available in watsons and guardian? trying to find products that will specifically lighten scars.will the loreal whitening mask just whiten my skin w/o lightening the scars? cuz if cannot lighten the scars, whitening my skin will only further enhance the look of my freckles and scars..
hi oopsie,
I've got small faint freckles and bought
the loreal spot corrector gel before, dun really see got improvement.
Currently i'm using the Kao Brior whitening system cream in tube form. Surprising that helps to whiten my face at the same time lighten my freckles. but that cream have to apply during nite time cos it makes your face like "ghostly" white when you apply it.

Can also try the Neutrogena Whitening Mask which in my opinion is far better than SK-II except that the latter contains Pitera. I think now Watsons offer $29.90 (usual price $39.90) for 5 mask in a box. Very soothing & moisturizing. Good for whitening as well.
I read from some book that to achieve maximum whitening effect, the whitening skincare product you're using must contain Vitamin C. So far Neutrogena whitening mask does contain that so probably thats why its more effective also.
Anyway for cleansing, can either try Shiseido White Lucent Cleanser or Lancome Blanc Expert Foaming Cleanser.

Hello starz,
Yes of cos I remember you from the Amore thread. Nope, haven't sign up yet. Busy & procrastinating
But becos free registration ends 29 Feb, I am planning to run down either today or tomolo to sign up quickly.0
Rgding the Neutrogena mask, I am not sure what you mean by your case too serious. But I've tried SK-II, Fancl & Neutrogena and so far Neutrogena beats them all down. Not willing to try Olay becos the price is just not worth-it lor. Maybe you can try the Lancome cleanser I recommended becos its really foamy & can see results fast too

hi starz & brambles
No, i didn't make up the story, i checked it out at the store myself
watsons only changed their price on fri
anyway, these prices change quite frequently, what u saw last week may not be the same this week. just like guardian, they'd advertise at $29.90 for a box of 5 tubes + 2 tubes free and now, they're selling at the same price as watson's, ie $28.90 for the same deal.
No, i didn't make up the story, i checked it out at the store myself
hi starz
well... it depends on what u want the mask to do for u, personally, i've got 3 masks at home! yah, that KS! but seriously, 1 of them was actually FOC from estee lauder cos it's part of their free gift with purchase. some deep cleansing mask, not bad.
the other is from body shop, it's a warming clay mask. i've got oily skin, so, wanted a mask to help control my oil. when i'm really 'on', i will use the estee & body shop mask on alternate days, i only use the loreal mask once a week. hee hee, not sure if this is good or not but i like the smooth feeling after i put on a mask.
so, if ur skin is pretty good and u only want to lighten ur freckles & maintain a clean complexion, the loreal mask should be good enough

hi all! i've bought the loreal mask and gonna use it as an intensive 5 day treatment. hopefully it'll lighten my freckles. anyway, just wanted to clarify the question on the price of the mask. both watsons and guardian are selling a box of 5 tubes +2 tubes free at $28.90 but some outlets have run out of the 2 free tubes and are just selling the 5 tubes at $28.90.The 2 free tubes are attached to the main box and so can be easily seen. had to go two guardian outlets b4 finding one that had stock of the 2 free tubes.
a bit cheapskate la but it is 2 FREE tubes after all right.
hi yvonne,
oppps, hope u din misunderstood my meaning... of coz we dun mean to say u make up the story but i thot $34.90 was the norm price mah....
thks 4 the feedback really.... btw is tt the cheapest we can get? if yes, then i will get it immed 2mrw!
wah u so many masks ah? hehehe... 4 me, my norm mask is finishg soon, and since u gals said the loreal mask is so gd, i am really keen.
my skin is smooth after i scrub it.... hehehehe, i like the feeling!

hi oopsie
hee hee, u're the same as me. if i know there's a cheaper deal somewhere else, i'll search for it as well
hi starz
no worries, i understand
actually, i think the normal price was $36.90 when they first launched it, so, we actually stand to gain now
i understand from one of the gals in the thread i frequent, oct 2004 brides, that a shop at eunos is selling it for $28 for exactly the same deal as watsons & guardian, but not sure exactly which shop, and apparently, it's running out fast as well.
so, if eunos is out of the way for u and since i'm not sure of the shop's exact location, $28.90 is a good bargain as well

hi starz
if u want to see immediate results, u may want to do follow oopsie, apply the mask for 5 consecutive days. but i find that 1 tube is too much for my face (my friends also feel that way too), so, u might want to split up one tube and use it for 2 days? that way, u can use 3 tubes for 6 consecutive days
have been applying the mask once a week since late sept, can see the results by dec, my skin is now more evenly coloured

hi yvonne.... ohhh... 1 tube too much 4 a single mask huh? well, its a very gd idea to split into 2 mask servings... hehehehe... save $$$!
wow, apply for 5 consecutive days? got any side effect anot? the face can tahan like tt ah?
really very very keen to get the pdts after readg ur comments! i will def pop by the stores tdy!!! if i am lucky, then i can start on it tonite! wish me luck!

hi starz
yup, u can use 1 tube for 2 masks, that's what i like about it
well... when u use the mask initially, there may be a little tingling sesation cos the products are working on your face, so far, all but 1 of my friends who've used it don't have any problems. the only friend who had a problem said that it was very painful altho no one else had this problem.
nope, no side effects if u use for 5 days consecutively, it'll just help to speed up the whitening process.
i was just at the watsons at amara and there's still quite a lot of it, so, i think it really depends on which location u're at, good luck

Hi PPG,
I jus bot the L'oreal whitening mask yday. I am amazed by the results. I had sensitive and some acne and scars on the face. The first time i use it yday, i felt that it had helped my face even out the tone. N my face became smoother n more radiant...it had remove the dead cells from my skin. Though I had v fair skin, there were some parts tat were uneven. I hope that with the 5 day intensive treatment tat I am purusing will help to lighten my scar marks.
I bot it at Watson's 7tube for $28.90. The v special I mus say it tat it had beads tat act as a mild scrub and it's v effective. Try it. Gals...thanx for recommending tis gd pdt.

Thanks Tay - Now I am tempted to rush out to Watsons to buy this L'oreal whitening mask already. But its raining here
So probably wait later in the evening. Heh heh!
With regards to the method of "using a tube twice", where or how do we store the remaining with the tube? In the fridge or what?

hi PPG
i guess store in in an upright position in a cool place? i don't think u need to store it in the fridege but just make sure it's in a dry area. u make want to keep it in a plastic bag? for me, i share it with my mom, so, i've never really saved half or it before hee hee
hi tay,
glad to hear that u're seeing results for it. my skin not exactly sensitive, so i couldn't comment on PPG's earlier question hee hee

Hi Flow,
V gd idea for storing the tube. Will try it today.
Hi PPG,
I am stocking up too today. Went to Robinsons sales yday. Only 15% off the $36.90. So not worth it. Will go watson again.
Can see my skin glow...It's like old skin exfoliated and new skin reborn.
Hi Elle,
I bot the Kao Biore whitening system, wash foam, toner and moisturer. Tried yday. Seems not bad for my oily and sensitive skin. I put the cream on my whole face and put thicker cream on my darker spots(scar area). Might have to take time.
Hi all,
I hope that by using both Loreal whitening mask and Kao Biore whitening system might speed up the results. I had breakout several weeks ago and was quite bad... left scars and oso acne(big ones) nvr go off. So i bot the Euyansang Anfule. It seem to be working well cos even my colleagues and frens notice tat the condition had improved...no more new acne...existing ones subside...the redness on the areas had ligtened and now not much...soreness no more....
I am quite happy now. Jus have to lighten the scars and even up tones and tighten the pores.
I tink my situation had gone out of hand aft i gave birth so gals really had to take care aft giving birth else the whole face will be like volcanoes erupting.

Hi gals, I find the Loreal mask very effective too! Have tried the Neutrogena one (not bad), Fancl one (not bad) but must say the L'oreal one is a favourite. Initially I didn't like it as much as the paper masks as it was quite messy to use. But must say that the results seem somewhat more lasting. Like the glow on the face lasts longer, while with the paper masks, the effect is not quite there.
Didn't know that you can split the mask into a few uses.. thought they said that the 'active' ingredients in the mask works once it is opened hence not recommended to re-use? Duno, anyway if you girls find it just as effective to use a tube a couple of times, I will try that too! =)

Hi all,
Just to let you gals know. I went into Watsons @Marina Sq yesterday to get some sweets. At the cashier to pay, I was given some saving coupons. In it there's a $6 coupon for that Loreal whitening mask. So I managed to buy the Loreal mask for only $22.90 for 7 tubes!!
But these coupons are valid till 4th March, which is today! So i suggest you gals go get some sweets or whatever from Watsons and use these coupons to get extra discount on the mask TODAY.
I used the mask last night, and I have to agree it is GOOD! My skin feels very 'transparent' after that.
But I find it difficult to split the tube into 2 uses, felt that it's not covering all of my face enough.
Do you gals use the mask for 5 consecutive days? How's the result?
