What the gurus are saying

The experts who reviewed it found the formula works well for dark spots and uneven skin tone, thanks to the combination of glycolic acid for exfoliation paired with ingredients that target hyperpigmentation. Those with these concerns may want to ease in with a few applications a week, since the gurus note it also helps smooth fine lines and wrinkles over time with regular use.
