Definitely noticed an improvement when using this. Does take several weeks of applications before seeing a noticeable difference.

I have heard great things about this. A girlfriend of mine used to have pretty bad acne scars and was able to lighten them dramatically with this. I can still see it working with time. The great thing about it is that it's not caky or oily so anyone can use it without fear that it might make their face over act with dryness or more oiliness. It also has a very pleasant smell which can't be said of many products these days.

Hey there Melissa, I wanted to suggest this sleep cream for you because I have been using it for about 4 or 5 months and it is awesome!
I use it every night before bed and not only does it help to get rid of dark spots, but it actually does a wonderful job at evening my skin tone throughout.
I also want to say that it is definitely a non-greasy formula. My skin is, oh... slightly greasy I guess and this stuff really helps with that.
All around it's a wonderful product. You should really try it out.

This is what my wife uses and I know she is very happy with the results.
I couldn't say that I noticed dramatic lightening of dark spots, but I will say that her skin tone overall looks more even.

I think this is something that you may be interested in. Have you tried ponds? It lightens dark spots very well... especially the lighter ones. Takes some patience, though. You've gotta be persistant with it, using it everyday for a few weeks and then you will see the results. It totally works and I think you will be happy with the results!

I've tried this too.... pretty good!
I like the Olay better though. Just my very humble opinion!
