It doesn't seem possible that a product that feels and smells so natural and delicious could actually work at diminishing dark pigmentation, but it works for me.
I started using it on the top of my hands which looked like they belonged to my 80-year-old mother. They are now smooth and soft with very little dark spots, so I ordered more product and am now using it morning and night on my face before other products. It's been a month or so using it on my face, but already I've noticed I'm using less concealer on certain dark spots that bothered me and my overall complexion is more even.
I highly recommend this product.
Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend
