I don't have dark skin but seems to me it would work on either. It is very effective. I noticed a change after 3 applications.

Dear B. Dupree, Thank you so much for your inquiry. We advertise this product "For Dark Skin Tone" because it's the darkest in Skin79 product line. Skin79 Bronze suits for people who thought colors of Hot Pink, VIP Gold, Vital & Snail B.B are too light for their skin. I think it's not appropriate to let you know that African Americans with dark skin are able to us this B.B. I can send you one sample to you for free. Please provide us you shipping address and we will send you one sample with 1~2 business days (Domestic Shipping Only). If you have any other question, please feel free to contact us again. Thank you. Best Regards, Katie The Babe

As a woman of color (brown-skinned) I would recommend it to other women of color. I have seen it on darker women like BeautyByJJ and MakeupDoll on Youtube and it looks great on them as well. It won't look out of place, if this is your fear. It is a great undereye brightener and makeup setter. It blends out very nicely. I am a huge fan of this product.

Using 2x a day (heavily before bed), I started seeing improvements within 4 days. Keep in mind I'm very fair skinned so I'm sure it depends on skin tone.

Dark or tanned skin - the light will not detect the difference between skin and hair pigment, therefore it will not flash and treatment will not be effective....(this is what was written with the product)

You use it in the melanin producing tanning bed. That is where you will get the most benefit. I have been using it quite awhile and it works. You should notice results of a shade or 2 darker by the next day. Use it a few days in a row in those particular beds and then go to the intense beds using your other tanning products for the other beds.

Hi, again! I did an application this weekend and left it on longer since my skin has so well tolerated the prior applications. The results were more noticeable and my darkest dark spot is much lighter. I think it's safe to say that in another couple of applications it won't be visible anymore. I did leave it on a bit too long this time so to prevent blistering I really do still recommend gradually increasing the time to minimize risk of any injury to your skin, per the instructions. Good luck! I think we have a solution. I hope it works well for you, but we're all different so it's hard to say. Take care. Hi, again!

I am also of a lighter skinned complexity. It definitely will work, as long as you are consistent in your usage.

I wouldn't say it lightens skin but it definitely removes any discoloration, blemish and keeps your skin glowing and looking radiant. Ever since I have started using this soap on my face twice a day for 5 minutes, people compliment me on how they have never seen a dark black girl with a face like mine. On other comments they say it lightens skin but I guess every body reacts differently to it. Just keep using it In 2 months I have gone through about 2 packs and given some away to Friends and family and I have not worn any foundation ever since. :)

It certainly reduces bumps on my face, but Im white. I don't know if black skin is that different. I suppose it depends on the individual. This is the only product I have found that properly stops razor burn. Hope this helps

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.

I've used this product for about 2 months and I love it. As far as pigmentations? I'm not sure what to say. I get a great looking color each time I apply it. I don't have any pigmentations, but I'm guessing it will not. I have two very large scars on each knee due to surgery and it seems to help them fade. I would guess it will color evenly so it may not help, but doubt it will hurt.

Yes, I am African American and have used it without any residual effects. However, for my "hormonal" acne, I have not had a lot of success. Moving on to a 30% solution hoping for better results.

I myself have pretty fair skin. I would not recommend it for darker skin tones

Hello! From the information I read about the device it can not be used on dark skin, only light/Medium due to the fact that it is designed to attack melanin (color) in our skin and hair. it could possibly cause serious burns and/or blisters on dark skin, should you decide to use it you should consider that information. I do know of lasers that can be used on dark/black skin that are advertised as safe but have also heard of loss of pigmentation (color) in areas treated in some instances.

If you are a dark skin African-American woman looking to become a light skin African-American woman I don't believe this will help you. I am a light skin black woman who uses this to lighten the dark spots from my pimples and it works for that, in about 2 weeks I see results. However, it has not altered my overall skin tone.
