It works, but to a certain extent

This product really works with hyperpigmentation, but it works to a certain point and then it just plateaus and you must use continuously. but, this has been the only thing that has budged any hyperpigmentation so its works it. i also got melasma on my hands, hormones, and its currently lightening those marks on my hands. worth it for the price.

Brightens my skin

My skin feels bright in the morning after I use it the night before. Still early to tell if my dark spots are fading but looks shiny and soft on my skin

New Skinceuticals Product

I received this product as a gift and have only been using it for about 2 weeks. I have not seen any difference yet, but it really has not been long enough. I love SkinCeuticals products and hope this product is as good as the others.

Not my favorite Skinceuticals product

I am in love with Skinceuticals CE, and feel that it's totally changed my skin. I wanted to give Discoloration Defense a try, but I believe it fell short. I didn't notice any changes that I didn't already attribute to the Vit C product. Overall, this product just didn't hit the mark for me.

used religiously and made no difference

i used this religiously, first a few sample sizes, then full size bottle for months and use SPF 50 religiously, but it made no difference in any of my dark spots from sun around cheeks and eyes or on areas where i had blemishes. for reference, i have fair european skin.
