Dermalogica PowerBright Dark Spot System

I can’t comment on the product as only received it yesterday. But it arrived within 24 hours of ordering and in good condition

Dermalogica has been around for many years and was recommended by a dermatologist for my son in the 1990's. I have used some of their OTC product and been happy with the products and now this is a game changer for me if it works. The product comes with a serum to be used in the daytime after washing and toning my face. There is a light scent to the serum but the serum was absorbed within a couple of minutes. It dried smooth to the touch and left my face looking healthy and smooth. I do have a hyperpigmentation spot on my lower leg and I am also using this on that area. The product has a night time application which I applied after washing and drying my leg and face. Then I applied the night time application, a peel. I rubbed the peel in well and then let it rest for 15 minutes. There was no burning or stinging just a slight tingle upon application. Then rinsed off with cool water and went to bed. Since starting these two steps of skin treatment, my face and leg area do look healthy. I do know it will be a matter of time before I see a difference in the discoloration. This is an excellent product from a company with a great reputation....I highly recommend this product.

My skin sensitive got redness

I’ve been using this set for about three weeks so that might not be long enough to get the full effect. So far, the face serum feels quite soothing and goes on easily. It has a faint, pleasant scent (from the floral ingredients, I believe) going on which does not hang around so that’s nice because it doesn’t compete with anything else, and my skin feels soft. I don’t have any dark spots on my face but I do have a couple on my hand so I’ve actually been using these products there as well. I haven’t seen any real difference but it might be too soon. I wasn’t sure what to expect from the peel because I expected it to be more obviously a peel when I used it, but I haven’t used one before. It goes on smoothly (it is an opaque pale skin color when applied) and washes off well. There is no tingling or stinging during or after application. Overall, this appears to be a quality product but based on the results so far, I think the price is too high.

Not effective and waste of money

Dermalogica is known for quality cosmeceuticals that perform. So I am excited to try this 2 step kit from them to lighten dark spots. And know that it will take some weeks to see results. The kit contains two products - a daily serum and a peel. The peel is to be used daily for 4-5 days and then a few times a week. In the past I have tried some powerful ingredients like prescription hydroquinone and my skin can’t tolerate it. So I look forward to this gentle approach. It does contain a number of ingredients known for skin lightening. The one key is that the sun must be avoided because dark spots can come back fast. Also this duo seems appropriate for mild lightening not melasma. I am going to give it 5 stars due to the easy to use method and the ingredients. But it will take time to see results so I will update this review if it does not work.
