I used this to correct the skin color of my sunburnt shoulders and back. It felt drying when using it but this product combined with physical exfoliation using a brush loofah removed my tan lines and reverted my skin color to how it was from childhood. Some of my scar marks from a long time ago also disappeared after using this.
A very hydrating moisturizer and sunscreen are required after Show more
Effective dark spots corrector soap but remember it can be drying and causes sun sensitivity, so always use moisturizer(night) and sunscreen(morning) after using this soap because if not you will get the opposite result that you want from this product .
