Recently started using this serum

5 stars out of a maximum of 5

My dermatologist recommended this serum to me to help with some (somewhat minor) discoloration I have on my forehead/cheeks. I have been using this twice a day along for about 2.5 months and see a little improvement. Nothing drastic yet, but I'm going to stick with using it. I also use this with Skin Ceutical's phloretin serum + mineral SPF every morning.

My Skin loves this

5 stars out of a maximum of 5

My skin loves this serum. I use after I apply C E Ferulic every morning and most evenings unless it is a Skinceuticals Retinol night.

Works for lighter spots

5 stars out of a maximum of 5

I used this product for a few months and noticed that some of the lighter spots on my face were improving. I use it in combination with CE Ferulic to help with my melasma and sun spots. I would recommend it!

Doesn't work

1 stars out of a maximum of 5

Had such high hopes for this product and was eyeing it for such a long time for mostly acne scarring but obviously due to the hefty price I kept putting it off, after finally purchasing it and using it for such a long time I'm disappointed it honestly doesn't do anything and it was a total waste of money esp being so expensive.

Caused my skin to be yellow

1 stars out of a maximum of 5

I really wanted to love this product but it made my skin yellow. My problem area is above my lip so it literally made my sun mustache even worse! Ugh.

Great product!

5 stars out of a maximum of 5

I have been using this every night for about a month and a half. I apply it after my CE Ferulic Serum. I absolutely love this serum! I'm 37, medium-olive skin tone, sensitive, dry skin. I have some sun damage and hyperpigmentation. I can tell a huge difference in the evening of my skin tone. This product is worth every penny!

Disappointed and now have a Rash

2 stars out of a maximum of 5

I was really excited to try this product I really thought it was going to work since it was so expensive but all it did was give me itchy skin and a few rashes & my skin is no where near being sensitive so I'm not sure why the turned out so awful for me it was also very sticky & that was something I didnt expect.
