5. Top Customer Reviews
★★★★★Noticeable improvement in the appearance of dark areas quick!
I bought this serum on sale without expecting too much. Honestly, I was just hoping it would work well enough to last until I could purchase the serum I originally wanted. Instead, I’m going to be reordering this one! I noticed a visible improvement in the appearance of dark areas quickly, and the results have been even rather than patchy. A small amount goes a surprisingly long way, and I’ve been applying it twice a day. It also doesn’t have a strong or unpleasant smell, which I really appreciate. It feels smooth on my skin. It is lightweight but moisturizing and absorbed quickly. Easy to app ...
★★★★★Favorite serum ever!
In the past, I would never notice a difference in my skincare routine when using serums so I would skip them entirely. But this has proven to be my favorite serum ever! It makes my skin feel so nice and glowy! It has little yellow pearls that dissolve so nicely into the skin. For reference, I have sensitive and eczema prone skin and it feels amazing on!
★★★★★A Gentle, Supportive Brightening Serum That Improves Skin Without Overworking It
At 52, post-menopausal, with dry, increasingly sensitive skin, I approach brightening and vitamin products very carefully. Many of them promise glow and radiance but end up being too aggressive, leaving my skin dry, irritated, or compromised. At this stage, I’m far more interested in products that support skin quality over time rather than push for dramatic, fast results. This is not a miracle product — and that’s actually one of its strengths. I see this more as a supportive, gentle brightening serum that helps maintain healthy-looking skin without overworking it. It’s the kind of product tha ...
★★★★☆doesn’t work miracles
i bought this to try to get rid of nasty age spots on my hands. i feel it has helped but they’re still visible. Sadly, this did not make my 80 year old hands look 45.
★★★★★Good deal!
**⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Amazing Brightening Serum – Gentle, Effective, and Worth Every Penny** The **EQQUALBERRY Vitamin Illuminating Serum** has become one of my favorite skincare products. The combination of **4% Niacinamide, Tranexamic Acid (TXA), and Vitamin C** works beautifully to brighten the complexion while helping to reduce the appearance of dark spots and uneven skin tone. The serum has a lightweight, silky texture that absorbs quickly without leaving any sticky residue. It layers well under moisturizer and sunscreen, making it perfect for both morning and evening routines. Even with regular use, i ...
★★★☆☆Subtle and Slow Results
I've been using this serum for a little while now and have just about finished the bottle. I like that it's a very gentle, non-irritating formula. It doesn't have a scent and it absorbs into my skin really quickly without leaving a sticky feel. I've been applying it consistently to see how it handles discoloration, especially on my elbows. The serum does brighten and lighten dark spots, but I've noticed it happens very slowly. It isn't nearly as dramatic as the results shown in the advertisements. You really have to stay on top of using it every day to see any progress. While I think it works ...
★★★★★Works well
Really love this product. It doesn't take very much, just a few drops here and there over you face, and it speakd nicely. It feels good on my face too, and I think Ive noticed a difference over the past few weeks with daily use. I would buy this again. I really love their vitamin C toner pads, and use those along with this serum daily.
★★★★☆Not as good as advertised
They claim on Facebook it eliminated age spots, however, it didn't work for me. It slightly faded some spots but not even close to eliminating them. I have purchased A second bottle to see if a second round of application will do the trick.
