Hello, I am very interested in using for this product called Maxi White S1 Body Lightening Milk. I was wondering if you can research on that product and tell me if you can if that is safe to use on my skin? The active ingredient is called Hydroquinone.
Also, I was wondering what the side affects are if I was to stop using this prroduct.
thank you very much
