Carotone Body Lotion is specially formulated to lighten up your skin complexion in a short period of time. It has sun protection and smoothens, softens, tones and brightens up your skin fast.
It intensely lightens your skin and reduces the appearance of hyperpigmentation, freckles and blemishes. It also replenishes your body and stimulate skin regeneration and cell turnover.
But there is a stigma associated with carotone body cream because of how much they say it has damaged the skin of many users around the world. The hate some people have for this body cream, you dare not mention it in front of them.
It is one of those products that causes people to raise eyebrows if they find out you’re either using it or about to purchase it. But then, this carotone doesn’t deserve the bad reputation it has for ruining the skin of countless number of people.
This product according to me is innocent of the claims and the real culprit for the damages done are the users themselves. Carotone body cream unlike other skincare products didn’t lie about the fact that it contains 2% hydroquinone in it.
Hydroquinone is a very potent chemical given as a prescription to be used for not more than three months to treat hyperpigmentation, blackheads, blemishes, freckles, melasma, pimples marks and acne scars. It is an active ingredient that is meant to inhibit excessive melanin production.
So in essence, any skin product that contains this hydroquinone should be treated in the exact same way as a prescribed medication. It should not be used for long term else it becomes an abuse and then causes different side effects.
The reason why so many people claim that this carotone body lotion ruined their skin is because they either abused it or didn’t know how to use it. Many people are ignorant of the fact that it contains hydroquinone, while others don’t just care about the ingredients or what they can do.
It is important to make research before using any product. Try to find out about the ingredients and what they do. Check if you’re allergic to any of them before making purchase. This will save you the headache of having any side effects you will later start looking for solution to thereafter.
Any product that contains hydroquinone in it is enemies with sun and heat. So you should avoid sunlight while using the cream or only use it at night to prevent stories that touches the heart.
Don’t rub carotone body lotion and start frying akara or roasting maize by the roadside. Please don’t apply this cream and go hawking under the sun. This cream is very potent and would very much damage your skin with reckless abandon.
If you are a working class person with an air conditioned house, air conditioned car and an air conditioned office, then you can use carotone body lotion during the day. It will make your skin look so beautiful that you will be looking for the producers of this lotion to dash them money.
The only downside of carotone body lotion for me is that; it makes your towel stinky dirty. Apart from that, it is a good cream if used for a short time in moderation and away from hot sunlight.
Carotone soap and carotone face cream are also good products from this same company.

Hello Alyssa,

Miracle product
I started using the Carotone since November 2022, as i had pigmentation on my face, I used it during the day and night, firsty apply the serum then the cream, during the day apply sun screen, no sides effect, I’m looking beautiful then ever. A big thumbs up to the manufacturer.
I’ve been using this cream since January but the problem is it doesn’t work on me without adding oil. my dark knuckles is still there
Well It actually good on my body but if used for a very long time I do have skin irritation,wat I do is I used thrice a week.
That’s good using thrice a week is the best option and the most important point is use it at night
it really damaged my skin very sad here

Hello Sem Thamson,
The original carotone products are manufactured in Africa.
My first cream this cream is the best it makes my skin glow with no of the side effects mentioned there
It good though but I can perceive the odour of onions on my body and I don’t think that is a good smell on me
The cream is nice on me
I have used it for more than five years now but I’m getting fed up now.
Give extract body cream a try
Me but i am scared to discontinue the use because i will go back to my dark tone and i don’t want that
I have used it for many years its cleared all the rashes on my face, but if i stop using it the rashes appeared again and it always increasing the high sweat in my body
Well it’s still a nice body lotion that suit my skin type
I’ve used it for two weeks now, it cleared my black spots and still clearing my knuckles, it’s done clearing my knuckles at the left but I don’t know why the right has not yet cleared but the cream is really nice
Same problem I have oo 😂😂
This is accurte. Personally, I use the dark spot remover carotene and it is the ONLY thing that has removed my dark knuckles! But it is now hard to find since hydroquinone is prescription only in france. So I am slowly now trying to maintain with non-bleaching creams, but I can now show off my knuckles
Hello CleanSkin,

I’ve used the cream for 5 years now no side effects and I’m beautiful
