Finally—A Product that Actually Works on my Dark Spots!
First off, I'm 61 years old and spent a lot of time in the sun when I was young. Time has gifted me with sun spots, most of which I was able to remove through an expensive light treatment at my dermatologist's office. But the biggest, darkest spot stubbornly remained. I was so self-conscious of it and had to use concealer and powder to seal it every day. Even then, I could still notice it. When this product was offered as my free birthday gift, I thought, "Probably won't work, but what the heck." To my surprise, with twice daily applications, my stubborn spot started fading and, two months later, it's pretty much gone! Yes, it "burns" a little if you put too much on at once. I think that's why it actually works!

Noticed brighter skin in one week!
Received this as a birthday gift and have used it every morning for about a week. I definitely noticed a difference and my skin is brighter and appears clearer. I do have oily combo skin and am acne-prone, yet I experienced no irritation whatsoever. The smell doesn't bother me and the texture is very lightweight. Just don't forget to always wear sunscreen when using this in the AM!

Got rid of my dark post acne spots
I got this as my free birthday gift and I'm hooked. I've used it throughout 2 weeks every few days as a spot treatment, and it has significantly faded my dark spots. These were dark spots from cystic acne and I was unable to fade them with other products after 3 months. Pricy for the amount of product you recieve, but worth it when used as a spot treatment.

It burns
Oh God this burned. Idk what was in it to make my skin so mad but it burned! So only used it for like 2-3 weeks. I didn't notice my dark spots getting any lighter and it just wasn't worth it anymore.

Be careful if you are able person of color
I used this for 2 weeks in 2019, but should have stopped before as I woke up with skin burning and freckles on both sides of my forehead. I thought that it was my imagination, but it wasn't. A biopsy showed ashy dermatosis.

It works!
The product does exactly what it was intended to do. I dislike the feel of the product, however, I haven't liked any of the textures of any product that brightens skin. In my case, the product does not layer well. I use it alone after washing my face well. Bottom line is that is works.

Not what you think
I got this for my face but it wasn't doing anything. One day I wiped the extra on my arms and noticed the spots fading. Now I use it when I see a spot on my arms.

Didn't Change Anything
I have stubborn post acne scares that pop up without fail after a pimple has run its course. I was hoping this product would speed the process of lightening this but it didnt do anything i used it every night. I tried doing a spot treatment alone and spot treating with using my regular products and nothing. It also smells like nailpolish remover which was concerning. Especially with that pricetag.

Lightens up uneven spots
I bought this to lighten up some hyperpigmentation on my cheeks from acne. I used it day and night for about 8 weeks. I made sure to apply the serum first then layer my beauty/makeup products and finished with sunscreen. The dark spots completely lightened and my skin tone is even once again. I would recommend this to anyone who wants to lighten up any uneven spots on their face.

Targets Dark Spots
I truly love this product, however it is way too pricey for the amount you are getting. I only bought it during Ulta's beauty sale. It is a great product for removing dark spots and it absorbs well.

Burned my skin
I have very dry skin, so this burned me so bad after 2 days causing a horrible acne flare up, itchiness and redness. If you have oily skin this might be for you.

Weirdly fixed my active acne
I love this stuff but its so expensive. I got a sample from Ulta and started using it all over my face and shockingly all my little pimples went away (i still get hormonal cysts but thats different). I really like what this has done for my skin over the past 3 weeks!
