In simpler terms, it helps dissolve substances that normally don't dissolve well on their own, like mixing oil and water.

This is working for my 'melasma mustache'!
This is the 4th product I've tried for my melasma, and it is working! I've noticed about a 75% reduction of my melasma in about 3 months with continued use and copious amounts of sunscreen. My melasma seemed to pop up out of nowhere. I do keep all of the skin on my face quite smooth with a combinati...

Please bring back the original formula!
This new formula is a creamy like substance and doesn't work like the previous clear gel like formula. I have been a loyal user of this product and it was always so amazing. Did exactly what it promised. Cleared my face beautifully from dark spots. It is what I always used to manage my skin discolor...

Absolutely love it
[I received this product in exchange for my honest review] This cream is absolutely amazing, my dark spots are almost gone completely. Love the texture it smooths on and absorbs quickly, easy dispensing of product. I highly recommend this product and brand.


Consistency is key for better results
Murad skincare is one of the top leading brands that gives effective results. The Rapid Dark Spot Serum used correctly and consistently will give great results. Leaving your skin looking brighter as it eliminates hyperpigmentation and other dark spot issues. This serum works for all skin types. I use it opposite of Vitamin C. I use the Murad dark spot correcting serum at night and Vitamin C serum in the morning.

Great for dark spots and fine lines
[I received this product in exchange for my honest review] I use Murad Dark Spot Correcting Serum to help reduce the appearance of my dark spots, uneven tones and fine lines. This serum seems to be working well on my skin type, I do apply a mineral base sunscreen afterwards specifically if I plan to spend time outdoors. Texture is smooth and silky, absorbs well, leaves a bit of a tacky feeling but quickly goes away as t dries. No noticeable scent which I like, essentially ingredients such as Glycolic and Tranexamic acid, as well as Hexapeptide 2 which are essential and clinically proven to work. Great looking bottle, small compact and easy to store or take with you, pump dispenser helps you dispense just the right amount every time. Would recommend.



great product
[I received this product in exchange for my honest review] really great serum feels thick but hydrating and does its job. would be better if it had dark spots but i love it as a corrector it does have a sticky feel after
Great dark spot corrector serum
[I received this product in exchange for my honest review] I love Murad as a brand. I really suffer with hyperpigmentation on my chin area. This helped clean up my dark spot. I love that it can be used AM and PM. Love abd recommend.
