Freckle Juice

When I was little, I remember reading a book called freckle juice. In it, the character is willing to try anything to get rid of freckles! I've always had freckles....and never really minded them. However, in the past decade, not only have I gotten increasingly more freckles, I've dealt with discoloration and hyper-pigmentation. NO matter what kind of sunscreen I put on, I get a mask of sorts every summer. And it literally takes the entire rest of the year to fade, and it never really does completely. So needless to say, I was anxious to try out our new line of products specifically for age spots and discoloration.

After using it a week, I am absolutely thrilled! Mind you, it's not freckle juice. My freckles are still there, although I do believe they are lightening up. But the noticeable difference is not my freckles, it's my skin tone underneath those freckles! That is where the dramatic difference is! My skin tone is most definitely evening out and the discoloration is going away. For the first time in a long time, I felt comfortable going to teach WITHOUT any kind of powder to even my skin out. I guess the true test will be this summer when I am outside ALOT. But the day moisturizer has SPF 30 and I love the way it feels on my face. Very light and my skin looks brighter and healthier than it has ever looked!

So I'm not as impressed with the new acne spot treatment. I think it probably will work better for things that have already broken out, but not for the ones that are under the surface and just beginning. Mine is going away....just much slower than I thought.
