I was a little scared to try this tbh because everyone said it smelled like rotten eggs. When I heard this new version doesn’t, I decided to try it, and I don’t regret it at all. It’s so good! My dark spots are fading so much faster, and it doesn't irritate my skin.

I have been using this for the last 2 months following the directions, slowly building up to everyday use (including spf). It has definitely faded some hyperpigmentation marks and perhaps with continued use may fade the more stubborn marks. But as I've finished my tube I'm going to try a different brand.

I’ve been using Topicals Faded for about 2 years now, and it’s honestly been a game changer. My dark spots have lightened so much.. it took time, but the results are real. I used the original formula for a while, but I’m so happy they launched the unscented version now. It’s perfect for sensitive skin and still works just as well. Definitely one of the few products I keep going back to.
