Contrary to what you may have heard, dark spots won’t improve at their own time.

If you notice any discolored marks on your skin, you’ll want an action plan stat. The sooner you address dark spots, the better your chances of helping them fade in appearance.

You have to squeeze the lid of the dropper and deposit some of the solution on your hands to use it. The product is a clear liquid with a little gel-like consistency. It contains Activated C and I’m guessing that is Vitamin C great for lightening scars. The product is Silicone-free, paraben-free, and fragrance-free, so it’s good for sensitive skin-types.

Traditional Vitamin C is unstable and quickly degrades when exposed to light, but the C that Kiehl’s is using is a new form (“Activated C” an ingredient exclusive to Kiehl’s labs) that doesn’t break down with exposure to light. The clear bottle proves it. Melanin fighters’ peony and white birch extracts and a tiny bit of salicylic acid for pore minimizing, plus soothing lavender, make a high-tech cocktail to banish or at least reduce dark and age spots. The fast absorbing liquid has a lovely, fresh, herbal scent and feels freshingly cool on your skin.

Dark and age spots are challenging to fade, but this new product is purported to penetrate deeply into the skin’s surface so that with continued use, spots lighten up and help deter more discolorations and dark spots from cropping up. That alone might be worth your consideration. Kiehl’s makes great products and this one can help if you are patient and use it regularly and properly.
