Effective serum.
I have been using this serum for 5 months. I would like to note that my pigmentation on my forehead and cheeks has become lighter. It hasn't disappeared completely, but my skin has improved. My skin glows now. I like the texture of the serum. I don't feel any stickiness or heaviness after applying it. I have seen great results from this serum.

Game changer for Acne scars
This stuff actually works. I won't go into a rant about how to use it or why it's important but seriously if you are on the fence , take that leap! My ance scars and discolorations have faded quicker with this stuff than anything else. It can make your face a bit shinny if you put on to much so be sparing initially, but I promise give it a week and you'll be impressed too.

Effective for melasma
I've tried several products for melasma, with few results. However, Paula's Choice Discoloration Repair Face Serum is slowing fading my brown spots after applying 2x/day for two months. I only use the serum on the spots, not anywhere else on my face, so the small amount in the bottle is lasting a long time. Will continue daily use for further improvement.

Awesome, it works for Melasma
I never heard of this ingredient until 2026. Ive had melasma 30 years. 3 years ago i had large round milk chocolate color circles on my face. I managed to get it down with strong vitamin c 31%. i still have some. have been using this 1 week and what is left is now 1/2 what it was before.

Ok product not worth the price or the amoute that comes in the bottle
Ok product for something that is ok and very small amote in the bottle a bit too pricey. For that amounts of money I am sure you can get something better.

Bad item
This product is not suitable for sensitive skin. After just one use, it caused a severe allergic reaction and left my face extremely dry and irritated. My skin was red, itchy, and uncomfortable for days. I strongly warn others, especially those with delicate or reactive skin, to avoid this product. It’s harsh, drying, and definitely not what it claims to be. Very disappointed.

Excelente. Soy alergica a la hidroquinona y todas las cremas con hidroquinona me han pigmentado la cara y yo pensando que no era. Pero el acido tranexamico es casi unica opcion para pieles sensibles. La elaboracion de esta crema fue hecha en serio por eso el costo.

The awful smell of this product makes it scary to use. Too much money wasted.

A peanut sized melasma faded after a month's use. People thought it was a birthmark and would asked me how it disappeared. I found an irreplaceable skin treasure
