I saw these 3 wick candles at Walmart the other wk and had to give them a try. I wanted to compare them to the 3 wicks from Bath and Body Works. Check out the video for a review. Thanks.
I started looking for a product to fade the dark spots that I have on my face.One in particular on my right cheek has been bothering me for a while and another small spot below my right eye was starting to surface.Since we just came out of summer, I think being outdoors in the sun without full on SPF had a big part in creating the problem.The other way, I think was due to stress.Stress has a way of wreaking havoc on the complexion.
So I picked up the
Garnier Skin Renew Dark Spot Overnight Peel because it guaranteed
results in 4 weeks.I used it
consistently for 4 weeks.I stayed out
of the sun, wore heavy SPF if I did go outside, washed and exfoliated my skin
really well before applying it each night.
I applied it all over
my face and neck.It has a clear gel
consistency and it takes about a minute to dry.Once it dried, I went on to apply my normal evening moisturizer.After a few weeks, I noticed the large dark
patch on my cheek (I've had for about a year) started to feel “scaly”, so I took the only heavy scrub I had
which was a body scrub with honey and sugar and scrubbed away on that
patch.Afterwards it felt really
smooth and the patch seemed to lighten a little.

After Pictures (4wks)
I notice however that
after 4 weeks of use, there’s only a slight improvement to the dark patch on my
cheek.The spot under my eye remains to
be about the same.I am going to
continue to use it though.After about 4
wks I’ve only gone through about half the bottle. The “scaly” feeling on my cheek's
dark patch comes back every few days, so I use the
sugar scrub (Tree Hut Shea Sugar Body Scrub)to smooth it off. I normally would never use a scrub this abrasive for my face, but it seems to be helping.
Im going to continue
with this routine: deep exfoliation along with the peel until I’ve used up the
whole bottle, then doa final
review. I'll do a final comparison of the before and after pictures.
I will say, even if it
doesn’t remove my dark patches completely, it brightened my
complexion and has given it a more even, and “polished” look to it in this amount of time that I've used it. I don't know if these results will be long term, so if I want
to continue using it for that purpose only, I think it’d be worth the
$12-$13.Even my Cellex-C Vitamin C
Serum that I’ve used for years doesn’t do that.
