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.

Excellent for spots
I received this Vitamin C Ester Dark Spot Treatment for free in exchange for my honest review. This is really an above average spot treatment in my opinion. It is powerful and after only a couple weeks I'm already seeing improvements in my acne spots. The formula is like a serum and is easily applied to skin. It dries quickly and you can use makeup over it.

Excellent w/surprise
This product was surprising. I haven't seen my dark spots fade quite yet. I have been using it for about a week and one thing I CAN say so far... my skin is SO SOFT. That was a surprise, and I wasn't expecting that. But it is this product that is doing it and I am here for it. It's amazing! And I really like the pleasant scent of the product.

I am shook!
First of all, this stuff smells amazing! It is not very greasy and absorbs really well. I have not had any bad reaction to any of the ingredients. The pictures speak for themselves! I've been using this every night and sometimes during the day for 2 weeks now and the results are pretty dramatic. I have s lot of dark spots on the sides of my face lately as I approach 50 (7 months!). I use this pretty much as a spot treatment on those areas in addition to daily exfoliation and moisturizers/hyaluronic serum. The left side of each collage was the first day of treatment, February 24th, the middle pic was taken March 5th, and the right side was today, March 10th. The dark spots have minimized greatly. I know with continued treatment it can only get better! (The botchy red spots you probably are not from this product. I just introduced a retinol to my skincare regimen and my skin isn't sure if it likes it yet! )

Minimizing Spots
Over the last two weeks I have been using Perricone MD Vitamin C Ester Intensive Dark Spot Treatment twice daily on the back of my hands. I have several smaller and one larger dark spot there. The treatment has a pleasant citrus scent, and it is not sticky just a slight tacky feeling more than anything. I have noticed a slight fading of the larger spot after this use. I will continue twice daily and would recommend to others.

Works better than expected!
I received this product through Buzz Agent to try for free so I had no expectations! I was pleasantly surprised at the results. This Vitamin C spot treatment has lightened my sun spots and discoloration on my face significantly. The only thing I don't like is the smell. It smells like a smokey fire. It goes on easily and comes in a nice pump bottle that dispenses nicely. If you haven't given this a try, I highly recommend it!

Just not for me
I was excited to try the Perricone MD Vitamin C Ester Intensive Dark Spot Treatment and was pleased by the product packaging. It looks high end with a lovely frosted bottle. Initial impression- I really really wanted to like it but after almost two weeks of twice a day application, it just isn't for me. I applied to about half of my face where I had discoloration and sun damage as well as my decolletage and backs of hands. The fragrance is light but odd and not very pleasing. The product dried very sticky/ tacky on my skin with a film that reminds me of dried egg white. I used moisturizer and a bb cream over it and found that it made my foundation pill horribly. I tried different foundations with brush, fingers and blender and none really made it better. The same happened when I used a facial sunscreen as well. After two weeks ( almost), my skin might possibly be softer to though it might be exfoliation affects of removing pilling makeup twice a day. My discolorations seem like they are a little lighter. Definitely not darker so I will use a little while longer to be sure. It's not a chore to use at night but during the day, it's hard to get a finished makeup look due to the incompatibility between product and foundation. ( I tried several types) If it yields effects after a little longer, it might be worth it. Photo shows my finger pointing to an area that was darker prior to using. I tried to capture pilling makeup but it wasn't picked up by the camera.

Dark spot lighting
I have use every other day at nights and in the morning. I think I see a slight improvement in my dark spots since I started using the product. No itching nor discomfort when applying or having the product on overnight. I also use my moisturizer and sun protection over this product. I'd give it a try.

My skin feels smoother after just a few days
I use the Perricone MD Vitamin C Ester Intensive Dark Spot Treatment after I wash my face in the morning and then apply sunscreen. It smells amazing and goes on easily. Just a small amount makes a huge difference. My skin already feels smoother and clearer after just a few days of use. I haven't noticed a lot of lightening yet, but I feel like that will also improve in time.
