Hello again ladies! I hope you all have been enjoying this beautiful week...at least here in Iowa it has been! So nice to finally see some sunshine and feel that change in the air in the morning. Today I want to share with you, what I think is, an outstanding product; a product that has truly helped my skin and has made noticeable changes. What I'm talking about is the Murad Rapid Age Spot and Pigment Lightening Serum..long title, I know.
I discovered this at Sephora and took a sample of it home a couple months back. While the sample was too small to notice any changes, I did some research online and read reviews on Makeup Alley about this serum. So when the sample ran out completely, I took the plunge and purchased it. At night, after I have cleansed and toned my face, I apply a thin layer to my "targeted area". For me, this is my chin. Hormonal breakouts are my #1 problem [next to oil/pores]. Some might consider me lucky to get acne in only one concentrated area, but I still see it as troublesome. Because it always leaves behind a little a lot of evidence. By that I mean, scars or post-acne marks. To me, a scar is when it changes the texture too (like an indentation). My skin is fair enough that even after the raised bump has gone away, the purplish mark sticks around forever, definitely over-staying its welcome. So I wear this to bed, followed by my normal moisturizer. I also like to put this around my temples and down onto the tops of my cheeks where I have some sun spots and freckles. I've had it for a month and have used about an 1/8 of the bottle.Ok, so here is a shot of what my chin looks like now after using it for a month. I wish I would have taken a before photo. But I assure you my purple marks have lightened into a more reddish shade, and definitely are starting to fade [much faster] than normal. Not to mention, some of these little marks have been there for half of a year. So any progress is fine with me!If you are struggling with post acne marks, age sports, hyper pigmentation, etc, I would definitely recommend you try this out!Want to check out it out for yourself?
