Q's&A's
Jevelle's Skin Lighteners

A - Absolutely. Uneven skin pigmentation is not uncommon - and both our Day and Night Creams are geared to fade and lighten areas on Face and hands.
Our Night Cream has always been effective in gradually lightening dark areas, but now you can speed up results by supplementing usage with our new day cream.
If you want even faster results, use our Light Skin Peel twice a week on those areas before applying the Night Cream.

Q - Can makeup be applied over the new Daytime Skin Lightener? Or can I use a sunscreen cream over the Skin Lightener?

A - Yes. After cleansing, apply the Daytime Skin Lightener - which also has moisturizing features - and then apply your makeup.
No additional sunscreen cream is necessary since the Daytime Lightener now contains SPF #15 sunscreen. Please note that a daytime sunscreen is vital for successful lightening result.

Q -  There are a number of fade creams on the market with hydroquinone. What makes your Night Cream superior?

A -  The difference is in the base. Hydroquinone is a crystalline substance which is the bleaching agent in most skin lightening creams. The FDA allows a maximum of 2% for non-prescription sales. But how well it's absorbed into skin is always the question mark. Jevelle's light cream base is a special blend that spreads and is absorbed easily. What's more, some users say they have had adverse reactions to some other hydroquinone creams, but ours had "no unfavorable reaction," and " worked better." The base must aid absorption and bleaching action as well as help fight against sensitivity.

Q - I have been sensitive to other hydroquinone creams and am fearful of trying any such product. Can I use the new daytime skin lightener?

Q - Should I apply the Brown Spot Night Cream immediately before retiring?

A - No. It would be best to apply it an hour or more before bedtime. Sleep movement could rub off the cream on pillows.

Q - Why shouldn't 2% hydroquinone creams be used during daylight? I know one major brand that features sunscreen in their product.

A - French researchers assert that 2% hydroquinone requires the same precautions as Vitamin A acid (Retin-A). It could cause irritation among many individuals if exposed to sunlight.
There are some companies promoting 2% hydroquinone creams with sunscreen; thus implying the cream should be used during the day. Our hunch is that this was conceived as a plus by the company's marketing department, because our research and experience show that it is safer to avoid 2% hydroquinone in sunlight - even with a sunscreen.

Q - How long before I can expect to see results when using both the Day and Night Lightening Creams?

A - The depth and darkness of "brown spots" within the epidermis is the variable; so some spots or discolorations are easier to lighten than others. Generally, however, after consistent nightly use of Nighttime Fade Cream alone, users reported a subtle fading of spots starting the 4th or 5th week.
But now, after supplementing nighttime usage with our new Day Cream, we've had reports of gradual lightening in 3 weeks or sooner.
Finally, to help assure quicker, more even, more dramatic results - once-a-week exfoliating with our Renewed Radiance Exfoliant (product #S107) would be an important supplement to our skin lightening program.
