So far I really haven't noticed a difference. I have only been using a few weeks so hopefully it will help with my brown spots.
Just realized I should use it twice a day, have been for a couple of weeks and I do see a difference. Skin tone more even, not splotchy. Also looks smoother and yeah, i guess "brighter."
It is a wonder. I had a black stain on my mustache and above my eyebrows from a depilation wax and it has almost totally disappeared . This is not an immediate defect but it is the best for stains
