Okay so if it is not one thing it is another.  I have been using OBAGI skin care products and was told that I should not be using because of hydroquinone.  Does anybody know anything about it and if I should or should not be using it.  Once again big thanks to everybody for their time and knowledge.

Hydroquinone has benzene in it.  Ring a bell?  It is used to lighten pigmented skin.  Think Michael Jackson.

If it has hydroquinone in it, you should not use it.  It is linked to cancers.
