The results are amazing but you will have to go into the second bottle to see a big difference, for me it made my skin look healthier, brighter and faded my dark spots a bit, i would recommend it as an alternative for vitamin c which can be irritating to people with sensitive skin or other skin conditions that don't tolerate active ingredient or acids of any sort💝
