How Safe is St. Dalfour Cream?

I dunno. I heard a lot of women gushing over these tiny bottles of wonder but it seems too good to be true. I maybe looking for ways on how to get rid of acne fast but I will not try this product. A lot claim that their complexion improved within 5 days or less on the first use and why question is: isn’t too soon? I’m afraid that the so claimed “natural product” has high mercury content  and topical steroids that accelerate the healing of the acne and whitening of the face.

If that’s the case then St. Dalfour Cream is not safe to use.


St. Dalfour cream originally came from Kuwait but since it’s release, a lot has claimed that theirs are the original ones which makes it even scarier LOL

Here is an excerpt from GMA7′s news about the banning of St. Dalfour cream because of it’s high mercury content:

SEPTEMBER 2010 UPDATE

FDA bans 5 more beauty products for high mercury content


The Food and Drug Administration has outlawed at least five beauty products from Japan and Taiwan after finding out the items contained high levels of mercury.

In a circular, the FDA authorized inspectors to seize the five products, which it described as “imminently injurious, unsafe or dangerous.”

“(These products) contain heavy metal (mercury) exceeding the allowable limit of 1 ppm (part per million). These cosmetic products therefore pose imminent danger or injury to the consuming public and the importation, selling or offering for sale of such is in direct violation of Republic Act No. 9711 or the Food and Drug Administration Act of 2009,” acting FDA director Nazarita Tacandong said in FDA Circular 2010-015.

The circular was dated Aug. 31 but a copy posted on the FDA website only Wednesday.

She identified the five products as:

  • St. Dalfour Beauty Whitening Cream (Tokyo, Japan) 
  • Beauty Girl Papaya & Hawthorn Essence (10 Double Whitening Speckles Removed Essence), Yudantang International – Taiwan 
  • Beauty Girl Ginseng & Green Cucumber (10 Double Whitening Speckles Removed), Taiwan 
  • Beauty Girl Essence Aloe Pearl (10 Double Whitening Speckles Removed Essence), Taiwan 
  • Beauty Girl Olive & Sheep Essence (10 Double Whitening Speckles Removed Essence), Taiwan

Tacandong also ordered food and drug regulation officers to “seize immediately the above identified cosmetic products for custody from all outlets or establishments where they may be found.”

Likewise, she sought the assistance of all local government units and consumers in “reporting all outlets found selling the above products.” — LBG, GMANews.TV

My aunt is using it and yes I saw some changes on her face. Hell, even her black moles have lightened! How scary is that? I don’t just know what’s going to happen after she stops using St. Dalfour Cream :( Oh well, I still trust my instinct because most of the time it’s right.

Anyone here has used/are using St. Dalfour Cream? Please share your thoughts and experiences :)

    been using dalfour from Kuwait with filipina beauty seal on the label, since November of 2009. when the controversy came out, i stopped for a while… so far no pimples, my face still makinis. I asked my cousin just this week who supplied me with the cream for more than a year now re: dalfor – it is still selling like hotcake there.

    ok ive been using this thing for years now! around 9years trust me the result is amazing.. it really works! it not only makes u lighter but also gives u clearer skin.

    so far i havent had any allergic reactions (in all the years ive used it…)
    like ive had with the other whitening products like fair and lovely/ jergens fair and soft etc..n plus they dont give u the result but dalfour has really worked for me!

    But overdose of anything isnt good its just a matter of not getting yourself too obsessed over it..as all whitening products have some content of mercury in it!

    i think dalfour isnt a cream but rather an ointment and needs to be applied in very minimal doses for the affected areas and with a very light moisturizer as it can make skin very dry but appear greasy!
    so far ma skin looks great and haven’t had any allergic reactions from it.

    but on the other end ive seen ma friends use it and they ended up having very negative side effects.. like lots of pimples and redness
    and once they discontinued it came back to their normal color.
