I have hyperpigmentation and acne prone skin. I love this product! It doesn't make me break out and helps with hyperpigmentation. You don't need a lot, so it lasts a long time.

I specifically use this on my decolletage

5 stars out of a maximum of 5

Another Skinceuticals product I use to help protect my investment of laser procedures. I specifically use this one on my decolletage because that area needs care, too. As someone trying to look my best, these products do what they are meant for.

Alright

3 stars out of a maximum of 5

Used entire bottle on a consistent basis, once daily, with my usual daily sunscreen and didn't notice any changes in discoloration. Even purchased a second bottle to see if it needed more time. Still didn't notice any big changes. It didn't irritate my very sensitive skin, which was a plus!

Discoloration Defense

1 stars out of a maximum of 5

I purchase my skin care products from Skin Ceuticals and the Dermstore. The serum products when first opened are a clear light yellow and over time transition to a dark orange color.  To my surprise, the product I purchased from the Dermstore was the dark orange color when I first received it..I’m not sure if the cap open or what happened, but I am dissatisfied with my purchase.
