Does this product contain hydroquinone? I have purchased it in the past and on the front of the box it stated 2% hydroquinone.

No , this one doesn't come with hydroquinone. The one you're looking for is the differin 2% hydroquinone skin lightener.

Can this be used with the adapalene gel? If so, what’s the order of application?

Our new & improved formula with Niacinamide is safe to use alongside Differin Gel. Since the active ingredient in Differin Dark Spot Correcting Serum is a powerful concentration, we recommend avoiding combining it with Differin Gel if you’re just starting out. As your skin gets used to the adapalene in Differin Gel and the retinization phase is over, try alternating your serum and Differin Gel between AM/PM routines. When using the Differin Dark Spot Correcting Serum, we recommend applying products in order of thickness and using Differin Dark Spot Correcting Serum no more than two times daily (or alternating AM/PM routines with Differin Gel if using the gel). Start by cleansing first, toner if you use one, then applying Differin Dark Spot Correcting Serum to affected areas, and finishing with a moisturizer and SPF, if using during your AM routine.

How Long does it take to work ?

I saw a difference in three weeks to my face. I put it only on the dark patches.

can it be user in summer?

I don't see why not but I use it at night befor bed

FAKE PRODUCT

There is no expiry date mentioned on it and the item is not getting returned. It feels like a fake product.

Working on it

I'm giving it a 5 because.. it's not magic BUT it is working. I've been using it for a while now except when I'm travelling or for any other reason I'm not around and don't feel like carrying an extra bottle but... It's been really helping to brighten the marks on y face that I developed with acne and lots of different acne targeting products.

Great product if you don’t have sensitive skin

I really like this product but my skin is sensitive so every time I used it my face would start burning and stayed red for days. It works great for my friend so I have it to her. She is seeing improvement in her dark spots.

This serum helped reduce dark spots and brightened my skin, though results took a few weeks. Overall, it’s effective and easy to use!
