Visibly lift dark spots in just 5 uses: this at-home peel helps visibly lift surface hyperpigmentation – including UV-induced dark spots, post-blemish marks, and melasma for a wide range of skin tones.
This fast-acting formula with an AHA + PHA blend, including Mandelic Acid, helps to quickly exfoliate away the appearance of stubborn hyperpigmentation while Tranexamic Acid and Niacinamide helps even skin tone. Barrier-restoring Omega-3 blend, derived from algae, sooths skin and helps reduce triggers that lead to post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation. Nourishing, antioxidant-rich Turmeric butter blend leaves skin feeling smoother and softer.
Apply a thin, even layer. Leave on for 15-20 minutes, then rinse. Begin by using daily for 4-5 days, then use 2-3 times per week. For an extra boost, leave on skin up to 30 minutes.

"This product change my life! Literally, I have an auto immune disease and most of my life have had to use what is called a cocktail of drugs and added to that cocktail is chemo drug. I have had dark skin with patches and never could remove it. This product has taken away the dark pigment on my face and neck. I actually cried when it just started to disappear. THANK YOU!"
"I love this addition to my night routine I noticed a difference in a weeK!!"
"I use this on the nights I don't use retinol. Not entirely convinced it works but I'll keep at it."
"I love this mask. It works really well. I use it at night/2 times a week. And, the powerbright dark spot serum during the day. It fades dark spots and pigment rapidly. And, effectively. The packaging on the mask is a little wonky. But, dermalogica is great about making sure the customer is happy. And, replaced my first tube due to a package error. Thanks Dermalogica."
"So far, so good. Kind of too early to review"
"Been using for a month now. Sun spots are slowly fading!"
"I have been using for the last 2 months and have definitely seen a difference. My dark marks are very dark so I am happy to see even a slight difference."
"This product is amazing. Very easy to use treatment for dark spots. I used as directed and within a couple weeks dark spots had visibly reduced. I used it less in the summer since I’m in the sun quite a bit but come fall/winter I use it religiously and it works great to even out my complexion. Exactly the outcome I was looking for. Love love love Dermalogica products ."
"Works great. Lightening already!"
