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...

Decent
[I received this product in exchange for my honest review] This serum was lightweight and not too fragranced. It worked on some minor dark spots but only minimally on some older ones. I will keep using this to see what happens.
Good
[I received this product in exchange for my honest review] Incentivized - good product - the only drawback - upon the first application - it does create a bit of a sensation - after using it a few times - it was fine. It effectively removed dark circles


My skin is glowing!
This is working for me! I haw tried so many things to brighten my tone and I feel like I have a nice glow now. When I ran out in between bottles, my skin was not as radiant. I repurchased immediately! So good.
2 weeks in and loving it
[I received this product in exchange for my honest review] I've been using this serum consistently for about 2 weeks focusing on areas where I have uneven skin tone and small dark spots around my eyes and cheeks. The texture is lightweight, silky and absorbs quickly without feeling sticky or heavy. What stood out to me was how bright and even my skin has started to look. I appreciate that it doesn't irritate my skin. No redness just a healthy glow. Though this is on the pricier side since I'm seeing results I highly recommend this if you're wanting to fade your dark spots and get a healthy glow. I don't have severe dark spots however so I can't attest to how well this will work for that.



I like it!
[I received this product in exchange for my honest review] This Murad serum feels good going on, absorbs quickly. It has a light pleasant scent. The serum is thicker, not watery, and I like that. It didn't cause any stinging or skin irritation for me. I have mature, normal skin with some freckles, dark spots, wrinkles and rosacea. Can't wait to see how my skin changes as I finish the full bottle! So far so good.
