I accidentally got some in my mouth and did not like it--not so much bitter as unpleasant. The smell is not pleasant either but I put lavender essential oil in it and that helped significantly. I put this on my face at night to help with acne rosacea and it has been beneficial for me. It will stain clothing and bedding but put a towel over your pillowcases and this helps. I take the oil off in the mornings with a face towelette and have had no skin staining issues. If you want to take it internally, get the capsules which are available.

This product is exactly like Pro-Active acne treatment but much milder and easier on the skin. This group doesn't specifically address scars/darkening. There ARE, however, many, many products to remove acne scars and discoloration. I bet many are available right here on Amazon.

Absolutely, this soap is amazing for people with an oily to combination skin type who experiences the occasional breakouts. It will treat the acne and help to control oil without stripping your skin of essential moisture. This will not irritate or leave the skin red. However, this could be a little bit drying to people who already have very dry skin! Hope this helped!

No. This product is simply a lot of different kinds of oils. Nothing that would damage your color. If anything it makes it shinier :)

Well, on the bottle it says "Cleans & Conditions, Softens, Resists Soiling, Buffs, Retards Waterspotting, Protects Against Sun, Safe for Leather & Vinyl". So...with that being said I would think that maybe it would help clean the oil stain but I'm not 100% sure. I might be worth a try.

Hello! Yes, this will help smooth out that line of demarcation as it lifts the sun damage. Also using a hydroquinone based bleaching cream will accelerate the results as it shuts down melaninn production. Thank you!

I've not seen differences at my stretch marks which are already made. This oil might be used only for prevention.

Hi Elizabeth, Unfortunately, it does not work with fading brown spots. It really is just awesome for dry skin and getting rid of the red spots and ingrowns. I'm Asian and have hyper-pigmentation. My dermatologist prescribed Obagi's #3 Clear. It contains 4% hydroquinone. There is a lot of controversy over hydroquinone, but it works. The Obagi #3 Clear is prescription only, but there's another brand that is 2% hydroquinone you can buy over the counter. It is significantly cheaper than Obagi. You get what you pay for though. Another great product that is prescription only is a retinol called tretinoin. It is your do it all cream/gel. It prevents wrinkles, it helps with fading dark spots, it helps with acne and etc. Whenever you see products that says "retinol," it is a relative of tretinoin. My dermatologist explained all of this to me because I was asking about a good serum to buy. I told her I wanted one with a retinol in it and helps fade dark spots. I was just wasting money on these $100/1oz bottles of serum, when I already had the best stuff. I had the best retinol and the best fading cream. There is a site that sells the Obagi #3 for $65 without a prescription, but I think you should consult with your dermatologist before using it.

It won't lighten, but it will even your skin tone. It got rid of my acne scars and dark spots.

I love this!! Yes, it has oils but, I'm not sure if these oils cause acne...Avocado Oil, Vitamin E Oil and Neem Oil. Also, has Aloe which is good..

So far, I'm saying yes. I'm still skeptical because I've been using it less than a month. I have acne marks, wrinkles/fine lines and a little discoloration. The moisturizer seems to add elasticity somehow and my marks are fading. Not really sure how it's working but so far it's better than any other moisturizer I've used. (I've used a LOT!)

It claims to minimize these skin discolorations, which I am trying to do right now by applying to the patch every morning. Since I have just begun the focused treatment I cannot say whether it is successful, but certainly worth a try. It has helped my skin in other ways, so I am hopeful. Will follow-up after a month or so.

Definitely. I used it for hyperpigmentation scars from acne, and it really helped. I would combine a once per week use of this with some sort of vitamin C serum or toner used daily to help with the dark spots.

Hello. I have battled with acne my entire life and still do. My acne has been moderate but slightly more severe here recently, I'm 24. I would suggest this product but not for acne scars, the only thing I've found that works so far is bio oil. I used it every day sometimes twice a day just before bed and at the start of day. I'm not gunna lie it's greasy as hell use it fresh out of the shower and/or right after washing your face. I was impressed with the results, my skin had a slightly more youthful appearance and a significantly smoother look which u know makes a world of difference lol. Now for discoloration I use an all natural method a lil weird but a potato. Slice a thin layer off each day and rub the juice all over especially on the effected area. Google it! Potatoes have a chemical in them that stops hyper pigmentation that causes the dark marks but won't bleach your skin. Sorry this was so long but this is what works for me thanx.
