it really works

5 stars out of a maximum of 5

I use this with the Vitamin C E Ferulic and it's made such a difference in my melasma and other hyperpigmentation. All my spots are still there, but far less noticeable from a pre-COVID conversation distance. I just purchased my 4th bottle.

So far so good

4 stars out of a maximum of 5

I still have some hypermigmentation / melasma on my forehead even after some clear and brilliant treatments. It's the melasma that never goes away. I use this just to help combat some of the discoloration still there and to not get any more when I'm out in the sun. Seeing some difference but not enough to WOW. Will keep using it just to help combat the discoloration.

Great results!

5 stars out of a maximum of 5

I have very fair skin which is very prone to hyperpigmentation. I've been using Discoloration Defense for 6 months and it has been effective in brightening dark spots on my face and preventing new spots from appearing.

Every morning.

5 stars out of a maximum of 5

Consistency is key and rewarding if you use this product every day. My dark spots have noticeably lightened. This size lasts quite a long time. I use this in conjunction with Skinceuticals C E Ferulic too. Highly recommend!

Undecided about product

5 stars out of a maximum of 5

Since I received this I have tried it twice and both times it has irritated my skin, with burning, itching, redness and very dry. I usually don't have sensitive skin and have used ingredients like niacinamide before with no problem.. I like the Skinceuticals products and will maybe try this when it's not so dry and cold.

Good product

4 stars out of a maximum of 5

This serum works well together with CE Feurrlic. It hasn't completely worked for my hyperpigmentation but I'm on my second bottle so we'll see how it goes. It's lightweight and feels good on the skin.

No difference yet

5 stars out of a maximum of 5

I've been using this product for about a month and I haven't seen any difference with my skin. I feel like the product is greasy and takes a long time to dry.

Dark spots faded

Highly Recommend for Melasma

5 stars out of a maximum of 5

This product was highly recommended by my aesthetician. I hadn't been using a nightly serum and I think in conjunction with the CE FERULIC, this serum is doing wonders for brightening my Hyperpigmentation areas.
