Lightening Cream Review, Jan Marini Skin Research Bioglycolic Lightening Gel by Jan Marini Skin Research

Did not lighten a single spot-- and it stung!
by qtboxerdog (6 reviews)
I used this lightening gel for two months as directed. The first week my skin was flaky, but that did go away. It stung going on and never absorbed very well-- even when I used barely any product. It very slightly lightened my brown spots, but I may have imagined that! December 28, 2007, 10:45 am

It Really Does Work
by angelinabecerra (3 reviews)
I really love this gel! It helped lighten all the little splotches of brown spots along the sides of my face without causing any irritation, redness or dryness. Just use it on a daily basis and the spots do fade away. December 3, 2007, 11:18 am

Manufacturer's Product Description
For Skin Discoloration and Unevenness Jan Marini Skin Research Even Tone Lightening Gel is representative of the latest cutting edge technology designed to address skin discoloration and unevenness. Even Tone combines the benefits of glycolic acid with newly researched kojic acid, resulting in a formula that surpasses anything available to date. Kojic acid is a mushroom derivative that has been successfully used for many years in countries such as Japan. Studies indicate that kojic acid shows greater effectiveness than hydroquinone bleach with less sensitivity, side effects or long-term complications. Additional research verifies that kojic acid has an antibacterial effect. This is especially helpful when patients are being treated for acne and resultant hyperpigmentation at the same time. Even Tone is an oil-free, alcohol-free, instantly absorbed preparation that can be used in conjunction with any other medication, moisturizer, sunblock or make-up. Patients will love the smooth silky feel and will be delighted with their rapid progress. 2 oz. tube.
Directions
Apply twice daily, morning and evening to entire face or to specific spots. If using C-Esta Serum, apply Lightening Gel over Serum. Moisturizer, sunblock and makeup may be applied after Lightening Gel.
