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.

Great for reducing dark spots!
This is a great product for reducing dark spots! I was hoping the dark color would diminish a bit more, I have hope as I've only been using this for 3 weeks. I have extremely sensitive skin and this product did not cause a reaction (yay!). I definitely would recommend trying this!

I would not purchase this product
I used this product 2x/day. It does have a nice scent. I didn't like the sticky feeling it left on skin after application. I noticed a very minimal effect after using. I did receive this product as a promotion in exchange for this review.

Holy Smokes It actually works!
I have tried many different products that state they can lighten dark spots. 7 days in and this one actually did what it claimed. It was visibly lighter. I even tried it out on my dad's face. He had a really dark spot from long term sun exposure, and I almost couldn't see it after 10 days.

I didn't notice a difference after 3 weeks
I used this product daily for three weeks and I didn't notice a difference in my dark spots. Also, it had a smell that I didn't care for.

Tried This Product For 2 Weeks To Give An Honest Review
I did not write a review for this product right away because it took time to use it and see if it actually worked. I applied it every night on the same dark spots on my chest, shoulders, and upper back for 2 weeks and can honestly say the product faded the spots. I applied a different treatment to the spots on my face to see if this product worked better or faster. I'm not sure it was better than the other product, but it did work just as good.

Disappointed in such a high end product
I started using it as soon as i received it, and with the first application, my face began to tingle and itch. I thought i needed to allow my skin to get used to it, but each application was the same. After the first few days of using it, my face developed tiny bumps on it, which meant the liquid wasn't compatible with my skin. I was so sad! I wanted this to work for me, and clear the dark patches off of my skin, but instead, I am left with more disappointment. I am glad I didn't buy it from a store, because I would be embarrassed taking it back, with my face full of acne scars, and scaly dark patches!!

I would be hesistant to buy this product again.
The scent of the product isn't too pleasant. The thickness of the product is too thick.

Wanted to love it.
This is not my first rodeo when it comes to this type of product. I was hoping for better results. First of all, let me say that the feel of it is great. Very smooth. Goes on easily without tugging my skin. Secondly, it smells terrific. I just wish it was effective for fading my dark spots. I've been using it for almost 4 weeks with out much change. What I have noticed is that the adjacent skin, without dark spots, has lightened and almost makes the dark spots more pronounced. I've tried to keep the product just on the spots but that is pretty tricky to do. I think if you just need help with uneven skin tone this might be the product for you, but if you have stubborn age spots, like mine, I'm thinking a good foundation that covers somewhat is the best I can hope for.

Great dark spot Treatment!
I have added Perricone MD's Vitamin C Ester intensive dark spot treatment to my skincare routine and am gradually seeing results on some dark spots left by sun damage and aging. I apply it to any area where I have dark spots and follow with an SPF. It's made with quality ingredients such as Vitamin C Ester and essence from the bear berry plant. I would recommend this serum if you are looking to diminish sun spots gently and effectively.

For the win!
Thanks to this, I now have faded age spots. Faded to almost nothing. No need for a ton of cover up anymore. This is pricey but with perricone you really are getting your money's worth because not only does it work, but a little goes a long way.
