didnt work for me
I used it for a few months and wasnt seeing any results. Plus it left residue on my skin maybe it doesn't work well with the other products I choose to use .

Curology seems to have changed the formula
Was the formula recently changed? I buy this product twice a month for almost 2 years now and the latest bottle I purchased has a bluish liquid that isn’t the same texture or color as the bottles I’ve purchased before. Very gritty. Doesn’t apply the same. This was my holy grail.

Used entire bottle, saw no results
I have been using this until the bottle ran out and I saw little to no improvements in my skin. I guess this brand is not for me.

It works
So far so good, I added this serum along with the curology skin care I use. It’s been lighting my post ache scars. It does a slight tingle and it does say that on the label. I use a pea size amount to prevent irritation. It does have a smell however with the ingredients its normal compared to faded topical the serum is more tolerable in terms of scent and irritation. Always patch test before applying all over your face. Curology products cleared up my skin a year ago and I haven’t looked back. ❤️

Loyal customer
I really love the fact that this serum has lighten up my blemishes due to acne. They are slowly but surely fading away with everyday use. I started to use this serum every other day for a week then after I used everyday morning w/ sunscreen. I also use this serum with the acne face wash and curology exfoliant toner. I use proactive and proactive toner at night w/ curology gel moisturizer. Works wonders for my oily acne prone skin.

Love it
I’ve bought extremely high end products, ranging from ; murad , clarity , Dr Dennis gross and dermelogica . So I thought to myself what’s $20+ this product has helped with my hyperpigmentation from previous acne spots. Highly recommend I saw results after 3 weeks

It hasn’t worked for me
I’ve been using it for more than a month and I haven’t seen results and in recent days I’ve noticed how it made me balls when I’m putting it on. I had a lot of faith in this product but it’s not working for me

Does work!!
I bought this because I developed hyperpigmentation during my last two pregnancy.. This is the only over the counter product I have tried that has worked. It has lightened the hyperpigmentation by two shades in about two weeks of use. I no longer need concealer and foundation to even out those areas of my skin. At night I put it on and let it dry down then I put a thin layer of Aquaphor to seal it overnight. It a game changer!!

Amazing!!!
Wow! Light weight and effective. Actually fading the dark scars on my chin! It takes a solid week to start to notice a change but i can say my skin is smoother and brighter also seems to be controlling my acne.I would highly recommend using the whole system together twice a day- gentle cleanser and the liquid pore exfoliant. 10/10

works but pricy
This product really works but i feel as it doenst last long. Ive used it once a day for about a month and the pump is already acting like it about to be empty by sputtering andnot despensing alot of product with one pump. I really love it but i dont want to spend 22 bucks a month on a dark spot serum.

Skeptical of product so far
I am not paid for reviews nor was I "gifted curology" for my review. I say that so you know my review is honest!!! I've been using this product in hopes of fading dark spots/hyperpigmentation. I use the entire collection to see if it'll make a difference. It has been 1 month & 1 week with no change. I honestly feel most of the 5 star reviews for this product is from people who have been "gifted curology." I plan to use for 2 additional months(3 total)to see if that will make a difference.

Dark Spots
10/10 I don’t normally write reviews but this serum really helped brighten my skin & removed dark spots in a week. I wish there was a bigger bottle but I definitely recommend!

Wonderful product that works
I bought this product to get rid of three very dark almost black acne marks, one that was caused by excessive picking. They had been on my face for three months and I thought they would naturally fade with time, but they didn’t. I have been using this product in the morning and at night for three weeks. My two darkest marks have faded to an unnoticeable (to others) light brown and the other is completely gone. I do think in another week or two the other marks will be gone as well. I experienced no irritation, dryness, or tingling while using this product. I still have half a bottle left, so I should finish this product up in another month. If you are someone wanting instant results, this product is not for you. For those with patience and can stay consistent, I would highly recommend. It’s a good quality product and is nicely priced.

Sensitive skin looking to diminish spots
What intrigued me about this product is its unique combination of five ingredients aimed at tackling dark spots. Due to my sensitive skin, it's crucial to me that it's devoid of fragrance and parabens. After incorporating it into my skincare routine for a couple of weeks, my skin appears to be responding positively. I'm eagerly anticipating how it will further diminish existing spots in approximately six weeks. *gifted by Curology.

Addressing sun spots
My skin tone is generally even, but I've been focusing on addressing sunspots lately. What caught my attention about this product is its blend of five different ingredients specifically targeting dark spots. Given my sensitive skin, it's important to me that it's fragrance-free and paraben-free. After a few weeks of use, my skin seems to be handling it well, and I've noticed a reduction in new spots forming. I'm eager to see how it improves existing spots after around six weeks. *gifted by Curology

gentle, affordable, easily accessible
Gifted by curology in exchange for an honest review. I struggle with hyperpigmentation and I was looking for a gentle dermatologist approved skincare product that was easily accessible. This checked all the boxes and i love it so far
