Has changed my complexion!

5 stars out of a maximum of 5

I have been using this product for a couple of months and the results have been dramatic. The brown spots on my face have definitely lightened, some have even disappeared. I am a fan!

Dark spots gone. Underarm lightener too.

5 stars out of a maximum of 5

I love this product its on my autoship. I had tried a ton of different products to get my underarms lighten up from my teenage years of razor burn and using so many products that instead of lighting them up made them worse because they all contained hydroquinone and they burned my skin instead of bleaching it out. I got laser-hair removal last year and i got a skin-lightening treatment at the spa and continue a at home routine to keep them with an even skin tone n light as possible. Best changes i ever made.

A difference

5 stars out of a maximum of 5

After about 2 weeks I can definitely tell a difference in my dark spots and my skin seems brighter. I definitely recommend.

Very happy with this product

5 stars out of a maximum of 5

Have been using for about 6 months. I'm African American with hyperpigmentation. The product does not bleach, just overall lightens my hyperpigmentation, and doesn't exacerbate my acne. I use it with SkinCeuticals CE Ferulic twice daily.

This is a good product!

5 stars out of a maximum of 5

My dermatologists said this is the best product for discoloration. I get dark spots, freckles on my body after spending too much time in the sun. I like products without sunscreen because most sunscreens clog pores. I have oily skin and I have to use products that match my skin type. This skincare product does not clog pores, will not cause acne. It is very safe for most skin types. I am very happy with my purchase and I will not return this purchase. Best product ever!

No visible results on melasma

3 stars out of a maximum of 5

I've been using this serum daily, at least once a day and often twice a day on my melasma. I'm sad to say that after 3 months of daily application, I see no results. Right now I'm torn as to whether I should buy another bottle in hopes that this needs more time to work, or if I need to try something new. I've tried so many products but melasma is relentless :( I see from other reviews that this has worked well for many others but for me this just hasn't delivered as I hoped.

Didn't see much results

5 stars out of a maximum of 5

I was recommended this for post acne spots but did not really see results after a few weeks of usage. I was not sure if it is going to work so I returned the product in the long term. That is why I love Dermstore for making it easy!

Good for acne scars

5 stars out of a maximum of 5

I use it every morning, after my vitamin c serum- ascorbic acid, and as instructed, followed with spf 50 sunscreen. Doesn't make my skin irritated/ breakout/ caused any tingling. So far i'm impressed with its ability to fade new acne scars. Hopefully it can also works for old marks. One thing though, my spots look redder than usual before finally fading.

Improve dark spots

4 stars out of a maximum of 5

This helped to fade a large dark spot I had on my forehead. I love the texture, and it soaks into the skin quickly.

Brighter Overall

3 stars out of a maximum of 5

Brighter skin: yes Targeted brightening: no, still the same Purging: on & off using the bottle (finished it 2 days ago). The worst was the first month, but it wasn't terrible. I would suggest this for first signs of aging and use after too much sun in the summertime. Good bang for for the buck in the the product (used every other evening) lasted almost 4 months. Not totally sold, so I will continue hunting for the Vitamin C product that works the best for me.
