I just bought a cream called “promina glaxo cream plus ginseng” its website said no mercury, but it dried up my pimples after the first application, I’m worried.

Hi, i’ve been using st. dalfour for over a year now and im amazed at its effects. however, just this week, a friend from BFAD (Bureau of Food and Drugs in Philippines) informed me that they recently tested it and it was found to contain 12.2% mercury. I’m not sure how this translates to “ppm.” I am still looking for an official statement/info from BFAD re this, because im really reluctant to stop using it (since it’s so hard to find a cream that works for my skin!), but i don’t want to compromise my health at the same time. If any of you guys find something re this, do let me know.

Thank you for your post. I’ve read several sites about Ly-Na pearl cream. I went to the market and there are three types of Ly-Na. One is in a pink box, one in a white box, and one in a green box. The white and green are labeled “medicated.” The pink is not labeled medicated. I’ve read one Ly Na product is mercury free. Do you know for certain which one??

Hi, thanks for the info above. I’m considering using a Rose Cream from Lebanon. I have adult acne which is so fruastrating. My sister has been using the cream for some time, and her face is now smooth and pimple free. I’ve been using Himalaya Herbal and St Ives products but I still get breakouts and have acne scars all over my face.
I’m skeptical as one of the instructions for usage for the cream is ‘avoid sunlight during the treatment’, and I’m scared to start using it if its going to be one of those creams that leave your face scarred and ugly when you stop using it. Do you know anything about this product?

Hi, very useful information. Thank you. Have you ever heard of Robisis Fade-Out Day & Whitening Cream ? They are from Thailand. I’ve been using it for about 2 months. Now I’m worried because the color of the cream is yellow and the packaging is like the Rose Super White Whitening Essence.

I really appreciate if you have any information about that. Thank you very much
