An exceptional wonder product I would say . Iv been using this product for almost a month and it has produced glowing results, my skin is so much more brighter and firmer and spots are disappearing after years . My severe dermal pigmentation is being resolved slowly but surely . Every evening after cleansing I love looking at the difference. Thanks to kevin for recommending it’s made a huge difference.

Lovely product. The best part is that this is one of the few companies that put this ingredient in an airless pump – preventing the oxidants in the product from oxidizing and losing its efficiency!

This product is absolutely amazing. It is a game changer. After using it for about 3 weeks, my skin feels smoother and is getting brighter. I experienced no irritation at all with this product, just a bit of purging which has stopped now. My skin tone has improved and the dark marks I had are getting lighter. I love the fact that it comes in an airless pump which gives it a long shelf life as it will not oxidize. I am definitely sticking to this active. It is worth every penny!
