The first thing to say is that for me this works - it diminishes dark spots. Would I buy it again? Not sure if I'll continue to need it, but if so then sure, I'll buy it again for the sake of appearance.
The second to say is that the product does not claim to be a dark spot eraser. Haven't seen that product yet. Maybe there's a process at a clinic for that - I have no idea.
As a guy, I would say that I'm not wild about the feminine aroma. It's akin to baby powder in some way. I don't think it's powerful.
Pros and Cons:
Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend
