Excellent for pregnancy.
I used this during and after pregnancy to even skin tone and prevent pregnancy mask. It works well and is fragrance free.

It’s a keeper!
This is my third or fourth order for this product. I saw resumes within a few weeks. Moths later, I am very happy with the results. I highly recommend this program. I’m 73 years old…It’s worked, but I wish I had started it at 50.

Skin Discoloration
A good product, that needs consistent use to be effective. I personally prefer hydroquinone RX for great results, as this will not work for dark freckles, etc,. But, I do use it daily. It is good with an effective IPL program for clear skin.

Definitely lightened my dark spots. Need to use for a couple months before you start seeing changes.

Still unsure
I had really high hopes for this serum because I love so many other SkinCeuticals products. I still can’t tell if this is working to help with my dark spots. But it feels nice and isn’t breaking me out. I’ll finish this bottle (my second) and see how things look before repurchasing.

Spots are gone!
I have only used Discoloration Defense for a few weeks and it has made a world of difference in my complexion. What once looked like a third eye in the middle of my forehead is now gone.

Prevention of blemishes
This product does give my skin a nice glow when applied. It does prevent discoloration when it comes to blemish formation when you have a pimple but you have to have already been using the product prior to having a pimple and to have use it for an extended amount of time. 1.5-2 months or so. Trust me when I say this, I had no blemish when I had pimples. It helps calms and soothes the skin of redness from exfoliation. The reason I give it 4 star is that niacinamide opens up my pores even though it is said it tightens pores. It works in the opposite way for my skin.

Waiting for a change
I have been using the Discoloration Defense for about a month. I'm not sure I've seen any change to my skin but I'll give it a full bottle until I decide. On the plus side, the texture and "fragrance" of the product both are nice.

Saw results after the sample vial
I have melasma that started at least 15years ago. I use my CE every day for preventative and when I received a sample vial of this I decided to add it in the mix. Towards the end of the sample vial I kept thinking, no that can't be right, have they faded this quickly? Don't get me wrong, it's not like it's all gone but there are several (three) extra dark spots that are large (about 1/8") and stubborn and I keep my eye on them because every day I have the routine where I have to cover them up by dotting on extra foundation. But towards the end of the vial I noticed I don't dot on as much foundation, and in certain lighting I don't see them at all or if I do, they are much less pronounced. Now, my "background" melasma is still there (those are the large brown patches made up of dozens of tiny spots that are lighter than the others but always present as huge globs). I'm not yet sure if those will lighten but I know for the fact that the darker spots have faded by about half for me. Everyone is different. I've tried things that seem to work for others and do nothing for me - hopefully this will be the right one for your skin. It definitely did some lightening on mine, and without irritation. I have extremely sensitive skin. I purchased a whole bottle based on this and plan to keep it in my morning and evening rotation.

Wow! Even Skin Tone in No Time at All!
I began using this golden serum 5 weeks ago. 5 or 6 drops will smooth over your face easily for all-over effectiveness. During COVID, I haven't been wearing makeup of course, and last week I was surprised to see how smooth and evenly colored my skin suddenly is. I'll certainly keep using it.

For the stubborn spots
I've been using this to lighten dark spots from acne blemishes on my face and have been noticing some lightening. That's great! I am also noticing it is helping to lighten the age spots on my arms. I hope others find this helpful as well.

So far so good
Recently purchased this product for the first time. Have been applying it daily as suggested. I do see some improvement even though I haven't been using it for long. Will continue to do so. It absorbs quickly and feels good afterwards.

Not quite sure
I use this twice a day and haven’t seen any results yet. I’m hoping with time I start to see the brown spots start to fade. If you know another product that works better I would love to know. Hopefully by next month I see some results.

SkinCeuticals Discoloration Defense
Love this product, especially during the summer months. I like to use this daily first thing in the morning. It is super light and does not make your skin feel greasy. I live in the South and it is hot and humid for at least 9 months so having something not make your face greasy is not always easy to find.

Best in class!
SkinCeuticals with a win again! This is the first product that I’ve used for dark spots that actually works!! I have been using this for about 6 weeks and I am seeing my dark spots starting to fade. I’m using this (am & pm) in conjunction with their Glycolic 10 (at night) and new Skin Brightening UV Defense with SPF. I finally found what works. Try it!
