Nice to apply but ?effective

Good texture, no strong smell. Easy to apply and fistribute to skin, no irritation noted at any point. However, despite frequent use, no results have been seen in stubborn dark spots like melasma.

Hello there! Thank you for sharing your experience! We’re glad to hear you’ve been enjoying the texture and gentle feel of the Clearly Corrective Dark Spot Serum. For stubborn dark spots like melasma, results can take longer to appear and may vary from person to person. Consistent daily use, along with sunscreen, can help enhance visible results over time.

Brightens skin and evens tone gently, but needs ti

I’ve been using Kiehl’s Clearly Corrective Dark Spot Solution for a few weeks, and I really like how lightweight and fast-absorbing it is. It brightens my skin tone and gives me a healthy glow, though it takes consistent use to see noticeable fading of dark spots. It’s gentle and doesn’t irritate my skin, which is a big plus.

It’s kinda expensive, but worth the price!!

This is one of my favorite serums. I love it so much because it really helped fade my dark spots after just two weeks. It’s kind of expensive, but honestly, it’s worth the price. I use it every night before bed, and it absorbs quickly without feeling sticky. In the morning, I always make sure to apply sunscreen to protect my skin. The combination works so well for brightening and keeping my skin even-toned. My complexion looks much clearer and more radiant since I started using it.

💧 Kiehl’s Clearly Corrective Dark Spot Solution –

The Kiehl’s Clearly Corrective Dark Spot Solution has become a staple in my skincare routine. The formula is lightweight, fast-absorbing, and non-sticky, which makes it perfect for both day and night use. I’ve been using it consistently, and I noticed my dark spots and post-acne marks gradually fading, leaving my skin looking brighter and more even. It’s gentle enough for my sensitive, fair skin, and I love that it doesn’t sting or cause redness like some serums do. My skin feels smoother and looks more radiant overall — it gives that “healthy glow” even without makeup.

Perfect

This legendary product, Kiehl's Clearly Corrective Dark Spot Solution, stands as a cult-favorite among those pursuing a flawless complexion. The serum features a light, watery texture that absorbs instantly without leaving behind any stickiness or oily residue, making it an ideal base beneath makeup or day/night cream. Formulated with a high concentration of Activated C, it effectively targets pigmentation, post-acne marks, and uneven tone, leading to visible brightening. With consistent use, the skin attains noticeable clarity and radiance. The formula is further enriched with White Birch and Peony extracts, providing additional hydration and skin-soothing benefits. The results are impressive: skin tone appears more uniform, and existing dark spots are visibly faded. This solution is a worthy investment for healthy, luminous, and clear skin, suitable even for sensitive skin types.I recommend this product

Great for dark spots

This is a lovely solution from Kiehl’s. As a woman near 40, I am starting to see aging and some darker spots in my skin. I am incorporating this into my daily routine to help fade those spots. This plus sunscreen are helping to transform my skin. It has a slightly herbal scent snd absorbs quickly into my skin. The glass bottle is substantial and gorgeous. Highly recommend this for anyone struggling with pigmentation issues.
