Undecided

3 stars out of a maximum of 5

I’ve read consistently positive reviews of this product. My concern is how quickly it loses its efficacy (turns a brown colour after one month of twice daily use).

It works

5 stars out of a maximum of 5

I have stubborn spots. I use it twice a day and started noticing improvement after two weeks. Great product

No Visible Results

3 stars out of a maximum of 5

I received a deluxe sample of this with a purchase and did not see any difference after using it. The consistency was very light. Perhaps it would work if used for a longer period of time.

Best for fading acne marks and dark spots

5 stars out of a maximum of 5

This product helps in getting rid of stubborn hormonal acne marks and dark spots. I use it with vit.c to help with PID from years back and my skin has cleared up and the marks are almost gone. One of my favorites for fading discoloration.

Effective

4 stars out of a maximum of 5

I saw visible results  with continuous use, twice a day as instructed. My only concern is how quickly the serum darkens from exposure to air and thus loses its effect.

Preventive is key

SkinCeuticals is the real deal

5 stars out of a maximum of 5

I haven't tried a product by them I haven't enjoyed. I wish the price way a little more affordable, however you get what you pay for. For sensitive skin, this is a great product to use on rotation with other more gentle serums. Immediate results for hyperpigmentation ans fine lines.

Disappointed

1 stars out of a maximum of 5

After having amazing experiences using other SkinCeuticals products, I was excited to give this a try. After consistent use for >2 months, I have seen zero results. I am very disappointed in this product and would not purchase it again or recommend it. I see no improvement in my discoloration.

Great for hyperpigmentation

4 stars out of a maximum of 5

I like this a lot and it lasts FOREVER so you get your money's worth. I prefer the blemish & age SC bottle, but I will be finishing this out in its entirety.

Fav serum

5 stars out of a maximum of 5

I’ve been using this  for a year now on and off. This serum is worth the buck! Whenever I have acne scars, I use this serum for 2-3 months and I saw results! I’ve tried so many hyperpigmentation serums and nothing works but this! I’ve searched for over 10 years and just now found something amazing! My fav so far.
