So I'm going to assume that the "lightening lotion" refers to the Dark Spot Corrector. I purchased the dark spot corrector a few months ago without having read reviews... bad idea! I thought the...

This cream works for acne blemishes, but you must use consistenly. It works very well with the other Proactiv line cleansers, etc. I only use Proactiv, so this is a lifesaver for me if I want a...

It does help somewhat with fading hyperpigmentation, but its scent is horrible! I really wish that it were fragrance free!
