Lighten scars

4 stars out of a maximum of 5

I use this everyday after the ce serum- I suffer from hyperpigmentation when I have any breakouts and use this to lighten up scars. It is really expensive that’s why I didn’t give it 5 stars.

Not sure.

4 stars out of a maximum of 5

I have been using the Discoloration Defense on and off. And honestly I don’t know if I see much difference in my skin. Maybe I need to be more consistent with my routine with this product specifically.

Melasma be gone!

5 stars out of a maximum of 5

This has been a game changer!! I have had terrible melasma and this has been the only serum that has completely faded it! I use it with the Skincueticals vitamin C and it’s a great duo!

Very hopeful

4 stars out of a maximum of 5

I bought this along with the Phloretin CF from Skinceuticals in order to lighten some dark spots on my face. The reviews for this product are glowing so I am very hopeful! I've been using it for a little bit longer than a week and so far it's hard to tell if it's improved my dark spots, but my skin does feel much healthier and is starting to glow.

Expensive, but great ingredients with a no-nonsense formula

5 stars out of a maximum of 5

Works effectively with proven ingredients. I have sensitive skin, and this is a great fragrance free formula. I've been using this with 2% alpha arbutin and I notice a difference in the discolouration on my face. Wish it wasn't so pricey, but I trust their formulation.

Works on brown spots!

5 stars out of a maximum of 5

This is great stuff for brown spots! During the winter I use this in the mornings and my hydroquinone cream at night. During the summers I use this morning and night.

It really works

4 stars out of a maximum of 5

My husband has had discoloration in his skin for years and once we both started using this daily, I could immediately see the transformation in his skin - and mine has a glow too! Definitely recommend, a little goes a long way which makes it absolutely worth the investment.

Amazing results

5 stars out of a maximum of 5

Amazing results-I am using SkinCeuticals for almost 20 years. This is the first time I’ve use this product and it’s been amazing for reducing discoloration spots on my cheeks which is gradually. Over the years. I am 55 and have seen results in just six weeks so grateful
