I've been using this for about a month. It doesn't irritate my skin or cause breakouts. It is a bit thick, so you only need a very small amount. I give it a few minutes to soak in before I add my moisturizer. I have started noticing a slight reduction in my hyperpigmentation, but it's probably still too early to tell for sure.

New formula broke me out. The previous one was so great, now this one is so bad
It is a thick serum, so don’t forget to apply SPF and moisturizer after using it. Not recommended to apply on active pimples, but definitely seeing a difference on my dark spots. They are much lighter. 
I have been using this since a while now really controls the acne. Doesn’t feel too heavy on the skin. Pretty good!
I love how it leaves my skin super glowy and smooth and hydrated.
Just give it some time to show what it does...its not that u apply today and it will show you results tomorrow good things take time i would recommend this product for people pimple spots and dark spots
It’s not for my skin. Actually my is so sensitive I feel best for days after using this but after 2-3 days my skin feel so dry, itching,redness on my cheeks. I’m not recommend to those who have sensitive skin.
I’ve been using this on my underarms every night for the past 7–8 months, and over time it has noticeably lightened them. There’s still a bit of darkness left, but it’s much better than before.
The best serum for uneven skin I had darkness around my mouth and within 3 weeks it all gone , this will not irritate your skin as I have sensitive skin but it’s very comfortable on the skin and do not make my skin red .
Just amazing must try if you have dark spots on face
