Vitamin C Ester: Supercharged Brightening and Smoothing
A potent and highly stable form of antioxidant powerhouse vitamin C, Vitamin C Ester helps give the appearance of collagen-rich skin by smoothing, brightening and helping to minimize the look of discoloration over time. Unlike traditional vitamin C, Vitamin C Ester is fat-soluble and easily absorbable for maximum antioxidant benefits.
Alpha-Arbutin: Powerful Dark Spot Inhibitor
A molecule extracted from the bearberry plant that lessens the appearance of dark spots for a more even tone by helping to prevent the look of melanin in the skin. Pairs well with other brightening agents like vitamin C for increased effectiveness.
Resorcinol: Skin Radiance Enhancer
A molecule derived from pine tree bark that promotes a visibly bright, radiant-looking complexion by working to address pigmentation and uneven skin tone. It also helps provide antioxidant protection to fight against free radical damage.

Dark spot has decreased
I used this on my face, I've had a dark spot for many years. I used this in the morning and before going to bed. The one thing I liked about this is it is very lightweight, the one thing I disliked is the smell. It is a very odd smell

Finally a product that does what is says
I've been using this product for a bit now. I have a few dark spots from old acne breakouts on my face and some on my hands from aging. Perricone MD intensive Dark Spot treatment has definitely brightened my complexion and my skin. It has a nice, thick but not heavy or greasy formula that melts into the skin. There is a scent to it that I don't particularly find pleasant but it has worked so well I am willing to look past that. My skin tone looks more even and well nourished. I have been using it daily under my SPF. I will definitely be keeping this in my daily regimen.

Good results so far
I received this product in return for an honest review. I've been using the product for over two weeks and have had favorable results. The product has a mild citrus scent but it disappears quickly. The product leaves a bit of a sticky residue but if used with a moisturizer it disappears. I've noticed my skin is smoother and some fading of dark spots, but it has only been two weeks. I hope more results with continued use.

Is it worth it...Vitamin C Ester Intensive Dark Spot Treatme
First, I'm a 50 year old gen x who worshipped the sun when I was a teen. I have some areas on my face and chest that have dark spots from not wearing sunscreen. This spot treatment has been a game changer. Using daily I have begun to see a change in the tone of the dark spots and a brightening in the spots that finally I have hope! I do not use this all over, just as a spot treatment as the smell is a bit much. There is an initial hit of citrus that is pleasant but an underlying smell that I don't quite like but not so bothersome that I wouldn't use it. Creamy gel like formula goes on smooth and works magic. Of course always apply sunscreen!

I would definitely buy this product!
I have very dark circles under my eyes where it can look like I have 2 black eyes. I have tried many "dark circle"correcting formulas but this is the first one that I actually saw results with! My dark circles have not disappeared but I wasn't expecting that either. I can see that they are a little lighter and I now have a glow under my eyes where my skin was once dull. The combination of those two makes my eyes look brighter and much less dark/tired. The smell is sweet and very pleasant so using it daily was no bother. I am absolutely adding this to my daily skincare routine.

Visibly lessen those dark spots!
As I get older, I'm finding that my skin coloring is uneven, blotchy and has some darker spots. So, I was quite excited to try this product. Thank you Perricone MD for the free sample in return for my honest personal experience with this product. I tried the product for 2 weeks. Applied it to my freshly washed face every night before bedtime. It smells wonderful and I felt really good about applying Vitamin C to my skin. The product contains 3 forms of Vitamin C - Vitamin C Ester (to brighten & smooth), Alpha-Arbutin (to visibly reduce the dark spots) & Resorcinal (skin radiance). I found that after 2 weeks, the dark, splotchy spots on my face were less visible. I'm hoping with continued use that it will finally even out. The dark spot on my collarbone didn't change much. I will also continue to use it on my collarbone area to see if that spot will visibly lessen. I was a little disappointed that the dark spots did not completely even out, though it did lighten up a bit. I would recommend based on the fact that it did help, smells wonderful, and you're applying vitamins to your skin.

Not sure yet….
Ive been using the product faithfully on several dark spots, but I haven't seen any difference yet, but will keep using it for another 30 days or so, and see if I can see any improvement. One complaint is that the dispenser puts out way too much product for one application with each pump.

I will definitely buy this product again
This serum really works!! I apply it on my nose because I was having a few dark sports in the left side and they were very notorious. I used this serum every night after washing my face and I have seen those spots disappeared in one week. I'm in shock about this and I really thought I was going to live with those spots for the rest of my life. I can't wait to buy it for my daughter who has some acne scars on her face. I'm sure this will work great on her as well.

I would purchase this item again
I use this product in the morning and it smells so good, just like fresh oranges. After using this for a week, I have noticed that my skin looks better. It is more smooth so my makeup goes on better and I actually am using a little less foundation. I think my skin looks brighter as well.

Great product
I really enjoyed trying this product. It's a lightweight formula that sinks into the skin. It doesn't leave your skin feeling greasy at all. I used it as a spot treatment, not over my entire face. I used it on acne scars and sunspots. I did feel my skin looked more even after two weeks. The dropper assures you get the proper amount to use. Vitamin C is a plus! I love products that contain vitamin C. I will definitely continue to use this product.
