Thrive Spot On Tone Balancing Face Serum - Brightening Serum Eliminates Dark Spots - Vegan, Made in USA, 0.5 Fl Oz

I struggle with hyperpigmentation and uneven skin tone, so I'm always on the lookout of products that help fade the patchiness. I love that this serum is natural and the ingredients are ethically sourced with an emphasis on protecting our planet. There are lots of good ingredients (I especially love the addition of hyaluronic acid) but I don't see any of the common skin lightening ingredients I normally use. Still, I wanted to give this a try. So far, I don't know of there is much of a difference in my discoloration, but I know from experience that it can take a long time to see a change. While I wait to see if anyrhing changes, I am enjoying this serum. It feels great on the skin, absorbs fully, and doesn't leave a sticky residue. I have no irritation and my skin looks plump and hydrated. Hoping to notice a difference soon. I will update if I see any changes.

Bought this on prime day. Got a good deal now I'm hooked on it. Works really good on dark spots.

But, it is stinky. I love how it fells, but the smell of it is terrible for me.

This stuff is thick enough that I find it tedious to get the dropper to pick it up from inside the bottle. I end up using what is stuck to the outside of the dropper because there is not much in the dropper. It leaves my face very sticky and does not quickly dry . It does lose its stickiness when I apply a moisturizer. It is supposed to reduce dark spots, without having to stay out of the sun. And it should even out the tone of the skin. All I see is it causing my skin tone to be redder, and it does nothing for dark spots.

The Thrive serum feels hydrating and has some great plant extracts but I'm not sure I see any fading pigmentation though. - Malus Domestica (Apple) Fruit Extract and Vitis Vinifera (Grape) Extract: These extracts are rich in antioxidants, which can help protect the skin from oxidative stress. - Sodium Hyaluronate (Hyaluronic acid): Known for its hydrating properties, it helps maintain skin moisture. - Arrabidaea Chica (Fridericia Chica) Extract and Hamelia Patens Extract: These extracts may have potential skin-brightening properties. - Andrographis Paniculata Leaf Extract: Known for its anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties. - Spondias Mombin Pulp Extract, Mangifera Indica (Mango) Pulp Extract, Musa Sapientum (Banana) Pulp Extract: These fruit extracts can contribute vitamins and antioxidants to the formulation.
