 To Whom it May Concern,

It is my understanding that you are considering restricting the sale of products containing Hydroquinone.  I would ask that you reconsider that.  I have been using a brand of skin care that contains skin bleaching due to a case of hyper pigmatism.  These products have completely changed my complexion and my confidence.  I don't exactly know why the FDA is considering removing these products from over-the-counter use but my results from using skin bleaching products has been remarkable.  I am very happy with my skin's appearance since using these products and would be extremely unhappy if they would no longer be available to me.  I have had no adverse reaction to using these products and would ask that instead of removing the products for over-the-counter use all together, you consider putting a caution or warning on the product instead.  Thank you.
