Black Opal Essential Fade Complex is a targeted formula designed to promote a clear, even-toned complexion while you sleep. Use for targeted areas. The Advanced Dual Complex Fade Gel can be used for larger areas.
In a serum formula, Essential Fade Complex effectively helps to minimize and lighten hyperpigmented areas. Black Opal's traditional fade ingredient, hydroquinone, is joined in a state-of-the-art formulation by Retinol, the purest form of Vitamin A and a Citrus Blend, to provide the most effective fading action available over the counter. Use once/day in the evening to begin to lighten dark spots as you sleep. Works best when used with the Daily Fade Lotion (with sunscreen to protect skin and prevent reoccurrence).
Please read and follow all directions included with fade products. Test for skin sensitivity before using and do not use on children.

the product is kind of iffy. I've been using it for over s month. My spots are gettin lighter, but so is my face. You may think I put the product on my entire face, but I only put it on my dark spots. I'm goin to continue to use it and see how it goes.Pros:
No bad scent
Cons:
lightens my whole faceMagic in a little tube!

I used Black Opal Essential Fade Complex on my face to help get rid of my "girlstache" shadow and dark marks under my chin. Then one day I realized I wasn't wearing makeup and couldn't see the girlstache anymore! The marks under my chin have faded almost 75%! I'm ordering another tube and that should do the trick.
You must use sunblock while wearing any fade cream.Pros:
Smells nice
compact size
lasts a LONG time
GREAT price
absorbs quicklyCons:
NoneI would recommend this item to a friend.
black opal fade serum
By Shirlie from california on May 31, 2010
This products works-I have no motives to sell or back this product . My skin looks brighter , healthier, and its almost clear of dark spots. I have tried other products, and they have not worked. I and other family members could see the affects after 3 weeks. I think all people who suffer from these ugly dark spots should use this product because dark spots disfigure the prettiest of faces.
The dermatologist who developed this products is a blessing to us who get dark spots easily.Pros:
It works!Cons:
None-It's hard to find in stores, so I have to order it.I would recommend this item to a friend.
Great Results

I have been using this fade cream for a few weeks on just a couple of spots that I wanted to have faded. I have notice that the marks are getting lighter. I am happy with this fade cream.I would recommend this item to a friend.
Can see the difference
By Jennifer from Madison, WI on August 23, 2009
I bought this about 3 weeks ago because of dark spots from acne. I use it 2x a day and can already see a difference. I can't find this brand in any of the local stores. Thanks for providing the product. I was using a well known brand, all it did was make my face super oily and did nothing for fading the marks.Pros:
light
non oily
serum
doesn't smellI would recommend this item to a friend.
