Worked great, at first

After trying a sample of this product and liking it, I bought a full-sized bottle and used it once a day in the morning. I have freckles, acne scars, enlarged pores, and uneven skin tone in places. This really seemed to even things out. After about a month I had an allergic reaction, pools of fluid collected under my eyes and my eyelids were swollen with fluid. I discontinued this as well as a cleanser I was using which also contains glycol. I was crushed, because my pores were smaller and overall my skin looked tighter and more even. The condition cleared up. I am now using the skin cleaner with glycol once a day, instead of twice, and so far so good. I will begin adding in this serum evenings maybe every other day. Perhaps I was just using more than my 73 year-old skin could handle. As I already stated, I loved the effect these glycol products had on my face so I am motivated to find a use regimen that works for me.

Best Addition to My Routine

The La Roche-Posay Glycolic B5 Dark Spot Corrector has been added to my routine, and I recommend that you should too. Although I use it only on weekends, it serves its purpose enhancing the serums used during the week.

It Works!

After developing dark spots on my face from being out in the sun everyday I searched for a product that would help reduce the dark pigment on my skin. I decided to try this and faithfully used it nightly incorporating it into my skin care routine. I have seen significant results after 3 weeks. I apply it on clean skin, wait until it absorbs, then I follow with my nightly skin care. I am looking forward to even better results with continued use.

Favorite Glycolic Serum!

I've tried a few, but this is my favorite 10% glycolic acid serum. I use a different one with a lower concentration for overnight, but this one really helps keep my skin smoothed, and helps with dark spots. It also definitely helps keep my pores minimal, which is nice! Yes it is scented, but still supposed to be okay for sensitive skin. My skin, especially my face, is very sensitive and reactive. Never had a reaction to this, or any other LRP product. Definitely a must for daily use.

Great product

I bought the mela b3 and thought it was the best product ever from la Roche-Posay to help even skin tone but this changed my mind. This product hydrates, evens skin tone and helps with skin texture. I apply it after washing my face and I must say that I was able to notice a difference after the first use, only in the texture. I feel confident that results will be noticeable after finishing the bottle. I will buy this again.

Good combo

I am in my mid 50s with olive skin and have used this for 2 months daily so far. I tend to hyperpigment and get sun spots easy and this seems to be working as I have seen slight fading. I use this at night and in conjunction with the Mela B serum in the morning. This combo is the way to go if your skin is too sensitive to retinol products.

Incredible product

I originally purchased this for myself but it irritated my pale, acne-prone, sensitive skin. So I gave it to my mom. About 3 days into using it I noticed her dark spots had lightened considerably. With consistent use this takes years off her face. I bought another bottle for her since she ran out and this is the only product she’s tried that produces results.

Amazing

I have very sensitive skin and I have never used this product before. I started using it every other night and I still do, it helps even my skin tone and I see less redness. It does not cause any irritation and it has a nice smell to it. I feel like my skin is glowing after applying. Great product

Great Product

I used this for years with a different formulation. That is actually how I discovered LovelySkin! This is still a great product at a great price point. Would definitely re-purchase if the dark spots return.

Using on my hands

At 76, am now 77, I began using this. I like the applicator choice. It has lightened age spots on my hands, but not eliminated them. Buying more to maintain/continue the improvement. Plus, affordable!

Do not buy if you have sensitive skin

I have extremely sensitive skin and the customer service representative recommended this. When I put it on, it immediately caused stinging and burning. I couldn’t get my money back as this is the third product I’ve reacted to in a year. I am very fair skinned.

So So

I bought this because the Glycolic Overnight 10 has been out of stock for months, I figured this would be the same texture but its not. Feels a little sticky. Not my favorite, but very affordable.

Great!!

I recently got introduced to this product because another product I used have been delayed for months. I recently figured out I can't use retinol - very irritating. I am a big fan of Glycolic acid.. Anyways I have been trying these for a few weeks with no problem. Plus I have dark spots so if it helps with that. I think it's a win win. Only time will tell with that.

Trying little by little

I started with very little of this serum because I have very sensitive skin and rosacea but I found out that doesn’t irritate my skin at all, still need more time to see any improve on my dark spots.
