Did not see any changes

5 stars out of a maximum of 5

I wanted to love this product, but after using a whole bottle (used once a day in the AM after my vitamin C), I saw no changes in my acne scars what so ever. But on a good note it never broke me out and the bottle lasted me a little over 4 months.

It works Great

5 stars out of a maximum of 5

I've been using this product for about 4 weeks, and my dark spots started to light it up. I like that it's effective but gentle at the same, no peeling or drying the skin either.

No improvement

3 stars out of a maximum of 5

I really like Skinceuticals products and I was excited to try this one. Unfortunately it didn't fade my hyperpigmentation. I haven't found any product that works though, so it might just be my skin.

Came dark orange color

2 stars out of a maximum of 5

My bottle was never the color in the picture, when I opened it up it was already an orange color (not even yellow) and now it has become sticky and is orange on my skin (doesn't absorb). I think I just received a bad batch or it was stored improperly, I wish I had returned it when I first opened it. Love the CE Ferulic though. I just think this product is not very stable.

Results, results, results!!

5 stars out of a maximum of 5

I have been using this for a good month now and my post acne/pimples have significantly faded compared to other products I have used in the past. I love this product! A little goes a loooong way! So you really can get by with one drop for the whole face.

Spots B Gone

5 stars out of a maximum of 5

Patience is key, remember that, and you won't try any other product. Once the discoloration product starts to take effect, it's wonderful. Besides a little stickiness from the product, it goes on smoothly and sinks immediately. And while Skinceuticals are pricey upfront, a little goes a long way. So, you get your money's worth.

DARK SPOTS GONE

5 stars out of a maximum of 5

Absolutely love this product. This is probably the first review I have ever posted, I just had to share! I am 22 years old and battled acne scars throughout college. After using this product consistently for 6 months my skin looks the best it ever has!!
