IMAGE Skincare, ILUMA Intense Brightening Serum, Helps Reduce Appearance of Dark Spots & Facial Pigmentation for Even Skin Tone, 0.9 fl oz

I love the way this serum makes my normally dry skin feel dewy. It is now a staple in my skin care routine.

Not sure how other people take to this product, but I have always had great results and have been using this from Image for well over a decade now as it’s the only thing out there that effectively removes my blemishes. I am black so when I get blemishes, they are darker than the rest of my skin and stay forever and are hard to remove unless I’m rubbing this over it before I go to bed. This stuff has always been successful removing it and if I am committed people in my life will begin to remark on how clear my face is. Over day or two, putting it on every night, you start to notice the subtle fading almost immediately. Creams with even stronger hydroquinone than this version have not worked for me in my experience and I have tried numerous. I learned that if it ain’t broke don’t fix it. Remember to rub it over a general area. I used to try and pinpoint a blemish and got areas of lightness around the blemish while the rest of my skin was darker so so it in a general area. I was a little upset when they switched the bottle style years ago because you can’t view inside the bottle and how much there is. Luckily, the last one I got from this seller lasted a long time. But the one before that didn’t last long at all. But I don’t blame the seller. Little trick for everyone. Leave this product in your night stand next to your bed at night or a covert where it’s not exposed to heavy smells, dampness, dirty air like it is in the bathroom. I feel it’s much more effective and seems to last longer. Just my own personal opinion. Anton’s Salon stop selling this product in my area so that now I have to order it online. I guess my only criticism to the creators is to make a see through bottle in order to properly gauge how much you have left and when time to get more. I used to love the see through.

I have tried many facial serums, but keep coming back to Illuma because it visibily improves my completion and it smells so good.

So I’ve only been using for a week and I’m noticing improvements everywhere. I primarily use this for my under eyes, nose, and cheeks after an esthetician recommended it. I have hyperpigmentation on my nose which is almost now gone (!!!), redness on my cheeks which is definitely improving, and my undereyes. Wow. I had very visible dark bags (genetic, so hard to get rid of). The darkness is slowly fading, but I’m noticing the elasticity of that skin has improved significantly. Before it was dull and saggy, now it’s tight and toned. I wish I had taken before and after pics. My one complaint (and it’s not a big deal to me) is that the serum is definitely a bit sticky and takes a few hours to completely sink in. I don’t mind this, but I don’t wear much makeup, so I can understand this being a problem if you do full face makeup daily.

I recently started using a brightening serum, and it’s been fantastic! I alternate between this and the dime beauty hyper glow but I think this one is better- just more expensive. It really helps to even out my skin tone and gives my complexion a healthy glow. Worth it.

I think the photo speaks for itself. Before on bare clean skin on the left, after 2 weeks use 2x a day on the right (serum is applied on skin on that photo). I’ve now been using it a month and I’m hooked! This was recommended to me by a friend who is an aesthetician and worked at a med spa. It definitely lightens spots, it evens out skin. Even my husband notices that my skin is more glowy now. It just makes me have a good skin day every day!

Hands down it has the most pungent smell BUUUT…. IT WORKS!! For a guy.. this works wonders for my skin. Reduces blemishes, age spots, and it makes my skin feel and look youthful. Yeah it’s a bit sticky but not after putting moisturizer right after and the smell goes away. I guess the smell comes from all the ingredients in the formula. At least you’re really getting something instead of snake oil. Would I recommend for the gents out there. Go and get it!! And follow up with a firm skin moisturizer and it works wonders!!

I have used this product for year and do see a difference in the appearance of dark spots and overall brightness. However, when they changed to this awful twist top dispenser, I have returned two containers because they broke. I am now on my 3rd broken dispenser, but for this one, I am able to still get product out. Please go back to to old dropper method. It worked, it was smaller for travel, and I never encountered issues with the dispenser.
