Fades scars

I have acne prone skin and tend to pick at my skin which will leave scars. This stuff has noticably reduced my scars. Love this stuff.

Received oxidized product

The bottle I received has a medium amber tint and is not at all clear/yellow as depicted in the photo on the site. It is actually staining my pillow case from using it at night. I have requested a replacement bottle and hope it is from a fresh batch or I will be requesting another as well.

Glowing skin!

This product works! I have a lot of acne scars on my skin and I've been using this product for about a month now and I can see a difference on my skin. Skin tone is slowly evening out. The product's texture is nice and light, absorbs quickly. It also gives me a nice glow in the morning which I love. I'm definitely buying again once I run out.

Noticeable Results

I had a lot of discoloration from sun damage, scarring and melasma. I bought the discoloration set and within a month I was shocked with the changes in my skin. I went from not leaving the house without at least some powder on my face to being confident after washing and applying serums. Multiple people have commented on how clear my skin and complexion appear. I have recommended to multiple friends!

Love this brand!

Excited to try this serum, as I've been using the CE ferulic for almost a year now and never miss a day.

Great Product!

This pairs well with the SkinCeuticals CE Ferulic serum. I apply the CE Ferulic serum first and then apply the Discoloration Defense serum on top and these two powerful serums work well together to clear skin and fade dark spots. I use all of the SkinCeutical products. They do not cause any break outs or irritate my skin. These products are all that you need, they are my holy grail products.

Nothing drastic, but continuing use for now

I only just started using this product in addition to my CE Ferulic treatment about less than 1 week ago. I don't know that it helped much but I do know that it helped my discoloration from getting worse.

No redness!!!

I'm very fair skinned and freckles and have noticeable brown spots now that I'm more mature. I've tried so many serums for this and have always had red reactions that are worse than the problem! This is the first time I've had a product that doesn't cause redness on my face or chest, even if use it every day. Not sure how effective it is yet (I'm on week 2) but I'm hopeful!

Great product

I've been using this product day and night for probably 3 weeks now. I love that it doesn't leave my skin looking too oily after use. No skin irritation or drying noticed either and my skin is usually fairly sensitive.
