Reviews For Obagi-C Fx C-Clarifying Serum (Hydroquinone-Free Formula)
Good vitamin C serum
Good vitamin C serum, but I didn't notice anything particularly different about it than any other Vitamin C serum. I also noticed that the color is darker, an amber tone, which I thought indicated a vitamin C serum that was getting old. Perhaps I'm incorrect on that, but an observation compared to other vitamin C serums that were clear.

Good product!
I gave this four stars because I love the Obagi 20% vitamin C. This one is great, but I should probably use it longer before giving it five stars. Regardless, it's a solid vitamin C, and Obagi makes the best.

Not entirely sure yet but its Obagi so its got to be good
I generally love Obagi products, so it gets stars just because its Obagi. While I can't tell whether or not its helping with dark spots, it does absorb well. I apply Obagi Day Exfoliating moisturizer on top of this serum.

I would recommend
I switched from the regular prescribed version to this hydroquinone-free version and seem to be happy with both. My sun spots seem to be faded and overall it's helped the clarity of my skin so I would recommend this product.

Good results so far
I’ve only started using this product for the last month but have seen an improvement in my skin.

So I do love this, but..
I'm on my second bottle of this. I do love this (one of the few vitamin c serums that doesn't cause me to break out). It does help with brightening dark spots/sun spots. It definitely takes time though to see results though. Because I have melasma mixed with dark spots/hyperpigmentation, I unfortunately needed something way stronger than this. I visited my dermatologist and they recommended I try the version of this with hydroquinone.. and holy cow. My dark spots have never been lighter in my life (even after countless laser and microneedling procedures). A couple things about the hydroquinone version is that it is drying/harsh on your skin: I use the C Clarifying Serum in the morning and the SUZANOBAGIMD Retivance Skin Rejuvenating Complex at night and it balances it out really nicely/prevents wrinkles (another dermatologist recommendation). Because your skin is ultra sensitive with hydroquinone on it, you have to be so so careful to avoid sun exposure or it can make your dark spots worse. That's where this comes in: I use this on days I am more likely to be in the sun (still wearing SPF though of course) and use the hydroquinone version on rainy weeks/in the winter time where I'm more likely to stay inside. Between the two, it's really kept my dark spots/melasma under control (which is unfortunately part of ongoing maintenance). Another win from Obagi though!

Good serum
My first vitamin C serum purchase, and I like it. It does feel tacky, so I only use it at night or I mix a drop in with my moisturizer. Haven't noticed any discoloration fading, but skin looks a little brighter.

Very good!
The serum absorbs quickly without being sticky. Have been only using for couple of weeks, so any further improvement will take time but it does leave the skin glowy!

Obagi-C Fx C-Clarifying Serum (New Hydroquinone-Free Formula)
Obagi-C Fx C-Clarifying Serum (New Hydroquinone-Free Formula) works just a well for me as the regular Hydroquinone formula. I would give 4.5 stars if I could. It helps to rid one of dark spots. I have been using 1 month and have seen a mild difference in dark spots at 571/2 years. It has helped with a scar. Would I buy again - yes.

Obagi-Fx C-clarifying Serum
This is a nice serum. I am not sure if it works without the Hydroquinone but my dark areas have not returned. It is a little drying but that is okay for me since my skin is usually oily. I'm not sure if it is unusually drier due to the colder weather or the serum. Overall I like the serum and will continue to use it. It is a little expensive for the size. Again I will continue with this unless the dark areas return. Do not forget the sunscreen!!! I always wear it.

Great
This product can be a bit drying but it is life changing! Just use a good moisturizer and you're good to go.

Feel smooth
My skin feels smooth after applying the serum. I didn't see any result of brightening skin tone yet, maybe because I just started using it. But I will definitely continue using this product.

This product is part of my daily routine. I use it daily under my moisturizer. A little goes a long way and I have very dry skin.
