This is the “only” product that has lightened my age spots on my face and hands. Noticed it within the week. I’ve tried everything on the market for 40 years without anything working Thought I’d try this as I’ve used L’Oréal for years and IT WORKED!

Hello Britturt! Thank you for sharing your experience with Revitalift Derm Intensives 12% Niacinamide + Amino Sulfonic Acid + Ferulic Acid Dark Spot Serum. We wish you could see the results you were hoping for with this serum. It certainly sounds like you gave it plenty of time. When trying to fade dark spots its very important to use a sunscreen daily to keep more dark spots from forming. If its in your makeup, that's great, otherwise, use something like Bright Reveal SPF 50 Daily UV Lotion during the AM. If you would like to speak to us directly about your recent purchase, give us a call @800-322-2036 9 AM to 5:30 PM ET M – F

Allergic reaction

2 years ago
Hi, this is the 3rd time I use this product, the first time it worked pretty well so I bought it a second time but at the end of the second time I noticed some allergic reaction on my face but I thought it was the sunscreen also from L'Oreal so I waited around 6 months to use the dark spot serum again but last night that I started to use it again, this morning I woke up with all my face swollen, red and with a lot of itchiness, it's the same allergic reaction I had at the end of the second time I used it.

Hi there. We are so sorry to hear you were disappointed with the Bright Reveal 12% [Niacinamide + Amino Sulfonic + Ferulic Acid] Dark Spot Serum. For best application, we recommend applying this serum to clean, dry skin and allowing to absorb completely before applying a moisturizer. Please allow 1-2 minutes before following with your other products. We hope you will try these tips out and have a better experience!

Weightless and really works!

I love using these products daily. The Niacinamide really helped to fade some of my spots and acne scars while the SPF lotion felt silky smooth and weightless on my skin! I definitely recommend for daily use!

No greasiness

2 years ago
I love the texture of this UV and serum lotion! It's light, doesn't leave any white cast, and absorbs quickly without leaving a greasy residue. I'm on multiple products for skin brightening so I cannot say if the niacinamide in this product alone is responsible for my skin looking great. However, it can't hurt! The high spf is fantastic for those sunny days.

Yes, I recommend this product.

Great products

I love L'Oreal products due to their affordability, accessibility, and amazing results the have. The sunscreen was great in hot summer days and did not leave my skin feeling sticky. It also did not leave a white cast behind under makeup when I took photos. The niacinamide serum took a bit more time for me to see results but after about a month I noticed my dark spots fading and my skin looking visibly smoother!

Yes, I recommend this product.

It's good

I liked the L'Oreal Paris Niacinamide Serum. It immediately made my skin look brighter and left a natural glow. It is a little thick and has a milky consistency. It also has a string scent fragrance is not my favorite in skincare. If you don't mind fragrance in your skincare I'd say this is a good option.

Yes, I recommend this product.

L'Oreal Paris Niacinamide Serum - Feels Luxe

I was surprised by a glass container. I love the milky consistency and it plays well with my SPFs. I highly recommend it as a base before applying a moisturizer. Definitely need to use it more to see if it makes any difference on my pore size but it's great so far.

Bye Bye dark spot!

Ok, I will admit I didn't think it would work, but I am thrilled to say that a dark spot on my chin is visibly lighter than it was before starting this regime. The serum feels great on my skin, and it feels so much smoother now thanks to the exfoliation properties! I will definitely keep using this!

No difference in dark spots

The whole point of Niacinamide Serum was to reduce brown spots and I saw no difference. The only difference I saw was my face was a little smoother. I do not recommend this because I didn't see a difference.

No, I do not recommend this product.

Effective, non-sticky brightening serum

3 years ago
For reference I have oily, acne prone sensitive skin. I am always on the search for products that help to brightening hyperpigmentation from acne scars. This serum comes in easy to use dropper bottle. The dropper allows the serum to be controlled and dispensed as I want it to be vs a pump bottle. This serum is opaque white with shiny translucence shimmer. It has a, fresh and clean scent. My sensitive nose does find it a little strong but not overwhelming. One of the best features is that it doesn't leave a sticky or tacky feeling after application. This serum takes a little time to absorb but not very long. My skin always feels clean, soft and plumped. Short term effects include my skin looks brighter and clearer with less redness. Long term I've noticed some fading of my hyperpigmentation. I've also noticed this layers well with other products from my skincare routine and doesn't cause subsequent layers to pill or flake off. I would definitely repurchase this serum! 5/5.

Yes, I recommend this product.

I was hesitant to use this because it seemed a little thick but let me tell you,! It went on very nicely, wasn't cakey, didn't leave my skin pale and was able to go great under my full face of makeup. I love that I can use this now and have some sun protection but still be able to wear makeup.

I loved the way this felt on my skin, it absorbed quickly. It did have a strong perfumed scent. I don't feel it was necessary, it's a face product but the smell did dissipate quickly. My skin definitely shows improvement as far as texture than before since I had been neglecting my skin lately. I would buy this again.

Love how this serum has SPF in it. I have noticed a big difference in my skin after trying this product for a couple of weeks. My skin is a lot brighter and it also helps minimize dark spots. I usually apply this before a moisturizer. Another great thing is that there's already SPF in it so you don't have to apply sunscreen!
