Incredible Serum for Hyperpigmentation
I cannot believe how much I love this Serum. It worked absolute wonders on my face in just one week, and it continues to work it's magic. If you have any sort of hyperpigmentation, acne scarring, sunspots, or dark spots from waxing, you need to add the CosRx Alpha-Arbutin 2 Discoloration Care Serum ...

Disappointed
Tried it as COSRX is a great Korean brand and was hoping it would be different than all the others. Plus, all the positive reviews. But after twice daily usage for 2 months, there was nonchange to any of my dark spots. I did before & after pics & i think it actually got worse! Thankfully i purchased...

Great product
This product is great for my sensitive skin. Its such an affordable price and it does what i need it to. Help lift dark spots from acne overnight.
Really good for sensitive skin!
I have very reactive sensitive rosacea-prone skin and this serum has helped immensely for my acne hyperpigmentation without irritating my skin. I have very reactive skin that I cant even use vitamin C derivatives. This serum has no vitamin C or exfoliating acids, so its perfect for sensitive skin. It's definitely slow acting and you have to be very consistent with it but i can see my dark spots fading faster than if I didnt use anything.
Don't love the consistency
If you do add more than one layer, it gets pretty sticky/tacky, so layering on more moisturizer and SPF can get tricky--particularly if you plan on putting on makeup. I also think that there are better products out there for discoloration.
Effective and Gentle!
I don't use this on my face. I actually use it on my abdomen to fade discoloration of surgical scars. It has a nice light texture and doesn't feel sticky. I use it every day in the morning and at night I apply retinol. The combination of the two products has really done a nice job at lightening the discoloration of my scars. I also love that there are multiple active ingredients for fading discoloration so it's a great all in one serum!
Love this serum!
I'm really enjoying this serum. When I use this consistently, my skin is brighter and smoother.
