I've been using Kiehl's TREATMENTS Auto-Tone Discoloration & UV Solution for several weeks now, and I'm genuinely impressed with the results. My skin tone has visibly evened out, and stubborn dark spots from past sun exposure are fading faster than I expected. The formula feels lightweight and absorbs quickly—no greasy residue, no pilling under makeup. One of my favorite features is the built-in UV protection. It saves me a step in the morning routine and gives peace of mind knowing my skin is being protected while it's healing. The serum is also fragrance-free and gentle, which is perfect for my sensitive skin. Overall, this is an excellent multitasking product for anyone dealing with discoloration, uneven skin tone, or looking to prevent future sun damage. Kiehl's has nailed it with this one!

I've been using the Auto-Tone Skin Discoloration Treatment with SPF 30 for about six weeks now, and overall, I'm impressed with its performance, especially as a dual-purpose product targeting uneven skin tone while offering daily sun protection. From a formulation standpoint, it includes key brightening ingredients like niacinamide and tranexamic acid, which are well-regarded in dermatology for treating hyperpigmentation. Many users online also praise its lightweight texture and how well it layers under makeup. I noticed my dark spots (especially from post-acne) beginning to fade within three weeks, though more stubborn areas took longer. It didn't cause irritation or breakouts, which is a big plus since my skin can be reactive. What sets it apart is the inclusion of SPF 30, which is crucial because any brightening treatment without sun protection is less effective — sun exposure often worsens discoloration. The sunscreen isn't greasy or chalky, making it great for daily wear. However, it's not a miracle product. While it noticeably improved overall tone and reduced some patchiness, deep melasma or longstanding sun spots may need something stronger or more targeted. Also, the price point is a bit high, which may not suit all budgets.

Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend to a friend
