Skin (sun spots) Lightener

[Anonymous]

Can anyone recommend a cream or serum that lightens skin pigmentation - sun spots - and really works?

Any price range.

TIA!

Obagi clear...it worked wonders for mine. they have a whole skin line. I bought mine at a derms office, but you can prob. find it online. I can't for the life of me remember what I paid---this bottle has been with me for over a year now!

The Obagi system is great, but I think you should probably consult with a dermatologist before using it. I don't think it should be used continuously for longer than 4-5 months at a time and there is a whole system that is what really gets your skin looking good. Even if you don't buy from the dermatologist, I think it makes sense to discuss with him / her first. But perhaps I am on the conservative side about these things...

Oh - and you shouldn't use while pregnant/breastfeeding...

good advice. i am the pp and I blend the Obagi 'clear' with my retin-a. I am done having kids and this regimen keeps me looking much younger than I am....but my skin is pretty hardy--it could be too harsh for a lot of ppl.

and I do NOT wax my eyebrows...retin-a makes if far too sensitive...have to have them 'tweezed'.
