Well, sometimes I do random research on skin care on the internet. I'm really obsessed with my skin and one of the things I research is skin whitening. Yes, a lot of people find it strange skin whitening but in a lot of Asian cultures skin whitening is as common as tanning. A lot of people think its racist or that Asians want to look like Caucasians. Not at all... back than paler skin meant you were wealthy and you didn't have to work in the fields. So its basically its about class. Pale skin meant you were wealthy enough to stay indoors and stuff and it has been internalized in most Asian cultures today.
Anyways, I stumbled on these L-Glutathione pills that are suppose to lighten your skin. I didn't really find any legit before and after images so I had a thought to try it myself. Now when it comes to ingesting things I'm very cautious. The instructions that came with pills say that you need to take two times the amount of vitamin C. So, for example you take 500 mg of L-Glutathione you take 1000 mg of of Vitamin C and you take 2~3 L-Glutathione pills per day (depending on your weight). Now, this freaked me out cause that seemed too much. But the most vitamin C you can take per day is like around 10,000 mg because its water soluble and comes out of your urine. Basically, Vitamin C doesn't stay in your system too long. (Vitamin C also produces collagen horray!~) L-Glutathione is a very strong antibiotic that prevents damage to very important cellular components like free radicals and stuff like that and I also heard it repairs DNA. I'm not an expert or anything so if you have questions you can ask me but you should also consult a dermatologist or doctor.
So, here are my pictures over 4 weeks unedited. I think there was one picture I took a week +1 day I don't know... Plus I really didn't notice that wore the same shirt in week 2 and week 3... That might spark some controversy but its been cold here and that's the only long sleeve I like wearing at night.

There you go!
I've seen a lot of people that say it doesn't work but I guess it didn't work for them. Its working for me and I like it. It made my skin feel softer and helped control my acne actually. Also, depending on your skin it'll work faster or slower. Plus you should always wear sunblock! I use SPF 70...Sorry for the end to be sorta sloppy. Also I heard that L-Glutathione works faster if you inject it but I really dislike needles...
For anyone wondering what brand of pills I was using it was BeauOxi White Glutathione 5 in 1 from http://www.magic-potions.com/
Thanks so much for the information! Cute blog, keep up the good work!
ReplyDeleteGreat results you're a fast responder! Have u heard of glow2thione.com?nim thinking of buying from them and they are a bit cheaper...what docu think ?
ReplyDeleteTruly Amazing!! hope I get result in month like u (:
ReplyDeleteI've used many pills of Glutathione for more than 3 months but I don't know why its doesn't work for me ,,very upset
I am gonna try beauoxi ,do u know why some pills does not work ?
apparently some pills don't work because its a scam sadly :(
Deletesome could be extremely harmful the ones I took here didn't hard me I've gotten check ups I'm not sick or dying xD! Although this was also in a strange point in time where I lost 10 pounds for some reason so I'm not sure if these pills might have caused that.
I also heard by just taking 2000 + mg of vitamin C everyday will have the same effect
Hi I just bought some l-glutathione pills from Gnc plus I've got some vitamin c pills I've been taking also ( I take 3-l-glutathione pills (1 hr. before breakfast lunch and dinner) Am I taking it right? this is only my thierd day ..dX ...lol but I still wanted to make sure. I'm black but I'm light skinned almost around the skin complexion you were before u changed it...Thanks
DeleteMom thinks I'm too young to bleach my skin, but the thing is I'm constantly being ridiculed because I'm the darkest among my friends and family. What bothers me the most is the fact that I wasn't this dark to begin with; I tan easily and Sun Block doesn't protect me at all! I was a very light skinned child.. hehe I was given the nickname snow white.. anyways, I think that I should bleach my skin as that would boost my confidence a whole lot and I really do look better.. I don't think I should worry about this when I'm only 15 but I've thought long and hard and come to the conclusion that although many people advise me against it I'll never truly know until I try. I'll be buying the same brand you bought.. Wish me luck! :D
ReplyDeleteHow sad the truth is,skin complexion does matter.One secret:Become a vegetarian.Over the years my complexion became fair.Which i did't noticed,others did.Which wasn't my goal.But the constant supply of greens(broccoli,tomatoes,etc) boost my Gluta levels.Now cooking destroys the most of it.Now imagine taking such amount like 1500 mg per day.I can assure it will make your fair.
Deletehi, where did you get your pills from and how much did they cost?
ReplyDeleteCan you tell me what the name of pills or you can put its image and how much weight and how much you eat??
ReplyDeleteI weigh 67 and how much to eat?? And thank you very much
hello!im interesting to white my skin!im from Grecce,female 24 years old 55kg 173cm...can you tell me what kind of pills to use and what ammount??i dont like to be tan...i want i whiter skin...also..can you tell me if this is permanent??many thanks and kisses!:P
ReplyDeleteL Gluthatione works.Look at vegetarians(as i am),we only consume fruit and lots of greens.Not knowing it has 'side effects' such as a fair skin.But its true coz i know,i have proof.So taking L Glutathione will defenitely lightens your skin.Eat lots of broccoli and tomatoes !
ReplyDeleteHi there so my skin color is kinda where you first started. Maybe a bit darker. Now my question is...when i decide enough is enough so I don't end up looking strange what do I do? Just stop the pills cold turkey or do I take them once a week to keep the new skin color stable?
ReplyDeleteThanks for reading.
Guys all ya Observations are quite interesting en seems am on to the similar task soon. But the noticable challenges i hv percieved sofar through comments is Loosing weight.
ReplyDeleteBut nevertheless i gotta do it coz it boosts Confidence in Public. forexample all ma friends are whites en light skin. so it leaves me an Odd man though i try 2 control it.
Hello White skin lovers?The best skin bleaching method for me is taking coenzyme q10 with fish oil everyday, but this is really a very expensive method because you have to take 5 triple fish oil with coenzyme q10, alone , the coenzyme q10 500 mg does not work, it is tested by me! did anyone try this? I used to have a pale skin, but in winter i was so white after using these pills and also you do not have to wear make up during this pill cure as you will have a wonderful skin. I did not try L-glutathione but as i guess, the key point is to take the best effective antioxidant (and this is not the krill oil because it makes your skin glovy but more reddish that you all would not prefer)
ReplyDeleteWell the reason it works for some and not others is and most glutathione products are a scam because glutathione can't make it through the stomach acid and its only about 3% increase if it even makes it to the cells. Now I have found the holy grail of glutathione boosters!!! This product is not glutathione but it is the components which make up glutathione and it does make it to each and every cell👍when you take these pills and it makes it to the cells, it gets into the cells and makes that cells produce more natural glutathione, it killed my asthma in days!!! glutathione is not just for skin but its in every cell in your body so the list go on and on and on. Just google glutathione and cancer,aids,autism, asthma, anything you can think of!!! www.max.com/370952

ReplyDeleteHello I was pale skin before when i was younger. but i went out in the sun everyday before for 2-4hours. I now have fair skin. And i want to go back to my original skin tone. Will 1500mg of glutathione and 4000mg of vitamin c lighten my skin back to my original skin tone if i do it for 2 months?im 150lbs male. Thanks alot!
ReplyDeleteI have definitely noticed a difference now that I have been using face lightening creams for over a month. I had some slight red patches on my face that I've had for years and after about a week of using this consistently I started to see the difference...it was less noticeable, less red, my face looked clearer. I'm not afraid to go makeup free now.
