Lightweight serum that brightens and smooths skin

I’ve been using this for about a year now for mild acne scars and hyperpigmentation around my mouth and I’ve been really happy with the results. It’s helped brighten my skin and improve the overall texture over time. I like how lightweight it is it doesn’t feel heavy or sticky at all which makes it easy to layer with other products. It’s been a really solid addition to my skincare routine.

This product did not work for me

I used Kiehl’s clearly corrective dark spot solution for 2 months, applied morning and evening, and can see absolutely no change - neither on large round dark spots or areas of mild hyperpigmentation. Waste of money.

Hi there! We appreciate your review and sincerely apologize for your disappointment. We know how frustrating it is to invest time and effort into a skincare routine without seeing a visible change in dark spots. Because every skin type and the 'depth' of dark spots vary, some concerns require a different concentration of active ingredients or a specific layering technique to see improvement. We value your business and want you to be completely satisfied with your Kiehl's experience. Should you wish to discuss your results further or explore alternative options, please contact us at 1-800-543-4572 Mon - Fri 10am-7pm EST. Our team is here to help make this right for you.

Not work for dark spot

This serum is not help me with my dark spot. It took me one year to see lresult. It very light consistency. It wasn’t breakout and dry my skin. It’s safe for sensitive skin. It doesn’t stinging your skin. It’s safe for sensitive skin.
