    needs patience with stubborn marks , but you eventually get results very gentle on sensitive skin. Thank you Skin functional I usually purchase your products on Takealot but recently bought directly from you . The packaging, the instructions of use, and little positive notes included with products are greatly appreciated. 😊

    I am amazed by how effective this product is! I had dark hormonal pigmentation on my cheeks just under my eyes and was very self conscious because I have a fair skin and could always notice the marks even under foundation. After less than two weeks of using this product twice daily I could already see a significant lightening of the marks, now it’s been almost a month and the one side of my face almost has no marks and the other side that was the worst now just looks like light freckles. So overall would highly recommend, and a little goes a long way as the serum is water based and glides over your skin so 2 drops is sufficient. Big thumbs up to Skin Functional!
