MuradRapid Dark Spot Correcting Serum - Skin Brightening Face Serum for Hyperpigmentation - Glycolic Acid Treatment Backed by Science

My skin went through hell last year. It was painful, embarrassing, and left me with tons of hyperpigmentation that wasn’t there before. My skin texture also suffered a bunch. I tried an expensive laser treatment that only made things worse, which left me even more depressed about my skin situation. At this point, I figured I didn’t have anything to lose by trying the “slow and steady” approach. I turned to this hoping it would address the hyperpigmentation problems. This wasn’t the only product I started with - I also added a micellar water to help cleanse my skin beforehand, daily extra strength peel pads by another brand, and a liquid to help clear my pores from another. Let’s just say I didn’t have high hopes going in, especially after shelling out big bucks for someone to shoot lasers at my face, but I figured I had nothing to lose. I think I maybe tried another product or two, but I’ve already forgotten what they are because I quickly determined which ones were working for me. I could tell pretty quickly that this was working for me. I actually made a point to take “before” pictures so that I could take “after” ones so I would be able to tell for myself if anything was working. The pics I’ve added here are almost exactly one month apart, are not edited except to zoom in and black out portions of my face, and are taken in the same position in the same room that only has one light source so the lighting and everything is as close to the the same as I could get it. I was happily shocked after I started seeing actual results! I was so excited that I could count myself among the people who had good experiences with this product! I used this almost every night of the week, and used it as the final step in my skincare routine.While I still have a ways to go with my skin, I’m fine with that. I haven’t had any cystic acne since I started this new skincare journey. My skin looks almost normal again. The spots of hyperpigmentation are definitely fading. My skin texture is improving. After I was feeling like this had done everything it could for me, I switched back to two RX creams through a D2C subscription service: one with tretinoin/azelaic acid/niacinimide/tranexamic acid, and the other with hydroquinone/kojic acid/hydrocortisone/azelaic acid. The only thing that I know can’t be helped by topicals is the issue of skin laxity that I think came from the laser treatment (or at least it was made much worse by it), so I would like to try a series of professional microneedling to address that soon.Anyway, all in all, I think this did exactly what I hoped it would do, and it was worth the investment for me. It’s not cheap, so that alone makes it not for everyone, but if you have similar issues I was having, and you manage your expectations appropriately, *and* are able to afford this, I say don’t hesitate. My only gripe with it is that it is a little sticky, and sometimes I feel like it’s hard to get the past but out of the bottle. While I do love this product and want to cycle it back into my skincare regimen, the price has me looking for alternatives since there is a lot of competition in the marketplace. I’ll edit this in the future if I end up circling back here after an unsuccessful search. However, I personally do not regret starting with this product (and the others I mentioned) in order to get my skin to a good place again. I’m thankful for this product, and it’s good to know it’s there if I should ever need to return to it, though I hope I won’t! Oh - and whether you try this or not, **make sure you use sunscreen every day**!!! That might be one of the single best things you can do for your skin. Whatever you try, good luck! I hope you find what works for your skin!

I’ve been using the Murad Rapid Dark Spot Correcting Serum for several years now, and it continues to deliver excellent results. This serum has been a game-changer for my skin, particularly in reducing dark spots and hyperpigmentation caused by sun exposure and past acne. After consistent use, I’ve noticed a significant improvement in the brightness and evenness of my skin tone.One of the standout ingredients is glycolic acid, which gently exfoliated and promotes skin renewal. It doesn’t irritate my sensitive skin, which is always a concern for me when trying new products. I use it daily as part of my nighttime routine, and within a few weeks, I typically see noticeable results.The price is on the higher side, but the results make it worth every penny. A little goes a long way, so one bottle lasts quite a while, making it a good investment for anyone looking to tackle stubborn dark spots and achieve brighter, healthier-looking skin.If you’ve been debating whether to give this a try, I’d say go for it—it’s a skincare staple I’ll continue to repurchase. Highly recommend it to anyone struggling with hyperpigmentation or dullness!

MURAD environmental shield, rapid dark spot correction serum. This product is very good after you wash your face with a nice cleanser then you will put this on and put a great moisturizer behind it. I would definitely buy this again and recommend it to everyone it’s a great product.

Muy bueno para las manchas en el rostro.

One of the really bad product I have ever got from Amazon. One of my big mistake. I got pimple on my face and rashes on my face after using that product. I bought that product from Sephora as well last time it was working very well. But when I bought it from Amazon it’s little cheaper and I got pimples and rashes on my face. Customer service is not helpful at all in this case.DO NOT BUY THAT PRODUCT FROM AMAZON!

Did not work on my skin and to expensive for amount spent. I did not see any improvement to reducing dark spots or improving the areas treated30 days is to short of a return window to even see any improvement of the issues this cream is supposed to help

Murad absolutely lightens dark spots. I have used it at night on a clean face. It has definitely faded sun spots so they are barely noticeable.

I’ve been using this product for years. It notably keeps my age spots at bay. I was out for a while and the age spots darkened quickly, but quickly lightened once I started using it again. For me, it’s well worth the price.
