Clinique Even Better Clinical Dark Spot Corrector

I have noticed since turning fifty an increase in dark spots on my skin, though I have a mid tone skin it is specially more noticeable on the face. Even at this age I am still getting blemishes on occasions and I know one of the reasons besides the sun's rays for getting dark spots are blemish scars.

I recently decided to try a dark spot remover and in my search came across the Clinique Dark Spot remover, I know and trust the brand since I have used other products and since it is known as a hypo-allergenic brand, I felt safe to give it try. I was amazed that after a few uses my skin felt different, brighter smoother and it is getting more even tones. The product itself sets expectations to seeing results in 4 to 12 weeks but even after a week I had noticed a difference in the feel of my skin and spots lightening and in general the skin having a youthful look. This product is not as harsh as some of the prescription products but it seems very effective.

It has special product called CL-302 which is the major ingredient improving the skin tone and the skin's dark spots, a potent botanical anti-oxidant which improves stubborn dark spots from aging as well as sun damage. Clinique claims that based on their clinical studies it has actually achieved identical results to leading prescription ingredient in creating more even skin tone. This product is claimed to be even better and specially suitable for skins that may not be able to tolerate the irritation or dryness from other skin treatments for dark spots. In fact it is claimed Clinique's Dark Spot remover is gentle enough to be applied twice a day.

UV exposure and aging are the common causes of dark spots but skin stress and acne scarring specially on certain skin tones are also the major cause of dark spots and discoloration. In general when skin gets irritated it ovreproduces pigments to protect itself, overproducing is the culprit since pigmentation is a useful part of skin health and protection from the sun.

So far I am very happy with this product and I highly recommend it to friends and family and it is gentle and the results are amazing. It costs about $72 a bottle for the larger 1.7 oz size (best value) and frankly after using it worth every penny! Keep in mind it lasts a long time since you don't need to use a lot for each application.
