Review (3/5): Still getting used to this
I only gave this 3 stars since I am still trying to figure out my schedule for using this. I have sensitive skin,a lot of sensitivity to products and certain sunscreens so the reviews of this being gentle plus my dermatologists recommendation prompted me to buy. I am dealing with sun spots, melasma but also have redness on cheek and chin from years of sun worshipping which I gave up years ago but now have the lovely after effects. I used a Pea size amount for about a week and on day 6 or 7 developed Very red, warm and irritated skin. I didn't peel however. My eyes were actually swollen and sore. It was the chemical burn others described. Went out and bought Boots calming cream and some other very moisturizing products. if it said calming or redness relief i bought ;). I have just started using again since skin is back to normal. I used last nite, completely avoided eye area and applied a moisturizer about 20 minutes later. Skin was good this am but have decided to try an every other night routine. I do feel my skin is smoother and that spots are lightening so I want this to work, it will just be Slow going. I should have read more reviews and started every other nite, ditched my other aggressive treatment products, AVOIDED the eye area completely and added a moisturizer on top.
