    I first got this as a sample, and almost didn't use it, because I've had bad experiences with Beta Hydroxy in the past (hives and rashes). I am so glad I tried it! This is the first thing I've...

    I have some age spots that I wanted to lighten and purchased this product for that purpose. It worked wonderfully at first, but after about 6 weeks of use (every other night), I broke out into a...

    This type of product takes time - 2-3 months. I use it on my hands because of sun spots. (Sun was not - and is not - my friend.....but I stupidly didn't realize that back in the day) Hydroquinine...

    Ah, the 40's, now is when we really need skincare to work! I'm a PPP with oily skin. I've been wearing high SPF since I was 18, and I've been using chemical exfoliators like lotions with AHA or BHA...

    This gel's active ingrediant, Hydroquinone, can cause reactions on some people, therefore it's not for everyone. It might also be the AHA and BHA in this product, so it is supposed to be used very...

    I bought this gel, instead of PC skin lightening lotion b/c the lotion got reviews that it is dark brown and messy, and also the lotion has 8%AHA in it, which irritates my sensitive skin. This...

    I've been using this for about a month and I have noticed it is working. My spots have lightened, and my skin looks good from the BHA. I like the gel consistency because it's light and spreads...
