What the gurus are saying

This sunscreen's standout is thiamadol, a dark spot corrector that's been studied for over five years against hydroquinone, the standard treatment for melasma and post-acne marks. Thiamadol works more gently than hydroquinone without the irritation or risk of ochronosis that can come with long-term use of hydroquinone, making it a solid option for anyone concerned about discoloration. The formula rubs in easily and has a light fragrance, all wrapped up in a chemical sunscreen at SPF 30.

"This one's nice, you know, it has a little nice fragrance to it. I've had some viewers say the fragrance is too strong, so maybe Eucerin could tone it down a little, but it just rubs in really well. This is a chemical UV filter product where you get SPF 30. It's not water resistant, but a nice sunscreen you can apply just for regular use going into the office. Good job Eucerin on having another option for treating such a tough issue, hyperpigmentation."

"These products were horrible. When I say they're horrible, I'm specifically talking about the fragrance. I try and hold off on ranting about fragrance in my reviews because I know some people are perfectly fine with it, but it's a common allergy and irritant. Not everyone is bothered by it, and people come to these videos wanting information on the products, so they don't just want to hear me complain about the strong scent. But when I tell you, it was intense."

*NEW* Eucerin Radiant Tone With Thiamidol For Dark Spots
"The fragrance is a little bit off, it's strong but it almost has this fishy metallic scent to it. I've noticed these products [...] have a cooling effect on my skin, feels like there's a little bit of cooling sensation and a little bit of a tingle as well."
