Re: Using Nadinola for first time - any tips?

Please google the dangers of hydroquinone (the main ingredient) before you make any final decisions about using it. I believe it's been taken of the market in some countries (Canada, for one).

Yes, it does work, I used it before reading up on it--but the main ingredient is known for causing extreme sensitivity and black spots on the skin as well as other problems.

Hydroquinone is still the gold standard skin fader in this country, 4% still prescribed by derm docs. Use it twice daily for 3 months.

Yes, it's potentially dangerous in high concentrations. Nadinola is not a high concentration.

Even water is dangerous if you drink too much of it in one go.
