First time ever disappointed by Clarin product
I can honestly say this is the first time I have been disappointed with a Clarins product. But, I have only been using for a week, so I'm going to keep using it for awhile longer. I find it drying and does nothing for my dark spots. But, I'm going to keep hoping!

Pretty good
[I received this product in exchange for my honest review] Lip oil packaging might be a little leaky over time but the ingredients are so good. Didn't notice too much scent which is great and it's very moisturizing and smooth. The serum is a little strong for me but would be great for mature skin

I loved the product
I love the smell and how easy it is to apply. It absorbs very fast.
Works wonders

It really does lighten age spots. My hand look so much better since I started using this product.
I would continue using this
I received this product in exchange for my honest review. I had the chance to try the Clarins Bright Plus serum. I don't see any significant dark spot brightening but my skin drinks in the serum. My skin looks plumper and brighter. The scent is alright. Packaging is luxe and easy to hold. I enjoyed using the serum.

The packaging is super cute and absorption is quick, however it didn't really work for me and I gave it an extremely fair shot. Not only did it not fade my dark spot, but it also made me breakout really bad and I have broken out in years. So very disappointed
