Rashes and hives
Extreme never before allergic reaction i have rashes on my neck to my jaw. I know it says patch test but a week of use. I just broke out. It’s very irritating for alpha arbutin to be a ‘mild’ known serum but it also has other ingredients which im sure irritated me! Now I have to spend more than a week healing my skin. Hopefully I don’t get dark spots after this!

Redness killer!
Very good for discoloration and soothing inflammation. Combining it with Azelaic acid serum is part of my daily routine to control my rosacea. Won’t be without it

Severe Breakout
This gave me one of the worst breakouts that I have had all year. A few days ago my pimples were the sizes of mosquito bites and I kept on getting little white heads and clogged pore while using this. The breakout and texture led me to my barrier being compromised and it’s disappointing because I worked super hard fixing it all just to go back to square one.

Works
I wish they made a jumbo of this product! Recently started using to lighten sun spots and even my skin tone and it’s worked perfectly! My skin loves it and has had no negative reactions!

The better option for dark spots!
I was looking for a safer option for my dark spots from surgery. The doc gave me Hydroquinone but it's only safe to use for max of 3 months. If uses longer than that the dark spots would worsen. I did some research and found that Arbutus is a better and safer option for dark spots and can be use long term. Also it is fungal-acne safe. IYKYK.

Dark spots improved
This helps quicken my acne healing. I heard a dermatologst say alpha arbutin and tretinoin help improve hyperpigmentation so I will have to try the combo.

The best for hyperpigmentation
Saw a major difference in my hyperpigmentation in one week. I use it twice daily. No irritation at all. Will always repurchase.

Doesn't work
I used two bottles in 10 months daily and saw no difference in my hyperpigmentation. All the 5 stars reviews here are reposted from the Naturium website where I guess they delete the negative reviews.

Reduced stubborn hyperpigmentation!
I saw reduction in hyperpigmentation in 6 weeks 🤩🤩. Works better than the multibright for me. I use this plus the 0.10% retinal

IMPROVED MY DARK SPOTS
I am a melanated person with dehydration prone normal skin. I am not acne prone, but I have always had stubborn dark marks from wearing glasses since I was 8 ( I am 22). I have tried every natural and drugstore remedy, but nothing has ever seemed to work. I tried this in combination with naturium's tranexamic acid serum & vitamin c serum from from august to november and I have never seen such an improvement. I also seal it all in with a moisturizer with spf 50. I will definitely try this again for another 3 months.

Please Change The Design of Your Opaque Bottles
I've purchased 3 of your products: The Tranexamic Acid; The Alpha Arbutin Serum; and the Hyaluronic Acid Serum 5%. I cannot attest to the efficacy of any of these products because the products are very thick and sticky and they seem to dry out before I can use them. The bottles are also opaque for some reason, so i cannot tell how much product is remaining. Please change the design of the bottles and perhaps make some improvements to the consistency of the formula

effective
This product definitely worked to reduce my dark spots. I saw results near the end of the bottle. It didn’t irritate me and was gentle enough to use every day. Don’t notice much change to freckle type spots, but nonetheless an effective formula. I have repurchased!

Love it
super lightweight have been using ordinary alpha arbutin for years but this formulation is much nicer to apply on the skin. This ingredient works wonders for my acne prone skin will continue purchasing
