Product Overview

SkinMedica Even & Correct Advanced Brightening Treatment Serum improves and prevents discoloration with proprietary, proven ingredients.

SkinMedica's powerful, effective brightening treatment uses a proprietary LTN Complex, which includes ultra-concentrated lotus seed extract (LSE), tranexamic acid and niacinamide, to help address six pathways of discoloration, hyperpigmentation and dark spots. When used daily, skin is left looking brighter and more even-toned.

Clinical Studies:

  • In a twelve week split face clinical study, this treatment serum was shown to improve the appearance of hyperpigmentation with similar cosmetic efficacy to 4% hydroquinone. 

Key Features:

  • Antioxidant-rich vitis flower stem cell extract, derived from grapes, protects skin from free radical damage that can contribute to premature signs of aging
  • Sodium hyaluronate, the salt form of hyaluronic acid, attracts moisture for more hydrated, plumper skin
  • Phenylethyl resorcinol helps to inhibit tyrosinase activity to brighten discoloration
  • Clinically proven to be effective in all ethnicities and fitzpatrick skin types
  • Hydroquinone- and retinol-free

Highlights

  • Minimizes discoloration
  • Antioxidant-rich
  • Prevents future discoloration

Hello. Thank you for your inquiry. You can use the TNS Advanced Serum in combination with the SkinMedica Even & Correct Advanced Brightening Treatment Serum. When applying your products, we recommend using the G.R.A.S.S. method. I will include this for you below. G- Growth Factors - SkinMedica TNS Advanced Serum R- Retinoids (PM only) A- Antioxidants S- Specialty serums/Treatments serums and moisturizer - SkinMedica Even & Correct Advanced Brightening Treatment Serum S- Sunscreen (AM only) We hope you find these recommendations helpful. Please let us know if you have any further questions or concerns.

How do I layer the products? I use tretinoin (at night) and TNS advanced serum day and night. I previously I received this as a sample and loved the results and would like to incorporate it into my routine.

It’s great to hear you loved the results from the SkinMedica Even & Correct Advanced Brightening Treatment Serum and want to incorporate it into your routine! Here’s how you can effectively layer this serum along with your tretinoin (vitamin A) and TNS Advanced+ Serum. Layering Routine: In the Evening: Cleanse: Start with a gentle cleanser to remove any makeup, dirt, and oil. Pat your skin dry with a soft towel. Tretinoin (Vitamin A): Apply your tretinoin first, as it’s the most active and potent treatment. Retinoids like tretinoin are best absorbed when applied directly to clean, dry skin. How to Apply: Use a small, pea-sized amount and apply a thin layer over your entire face (avoiding the eye area). Allow it to absorb fully for about 1–2 minutes before applying the next product. SkinMedica Even & Correct Serum: After allowing the tretinoin to absorb, you can apply the Even & Correct Advanced Brightening Treatment Serum. This serum contains ingredients to address pigmentation, brighten the skin, and help with dark spots. How to Apply: Use a few drops (usually 2–3) and apply evenly to your face, focusing on areas of hyperpigmentation. Massage gently until fully absorbed. TNS Advanced+ Serum: After the brightening serum has absorbed, apply the TNS Advanced+ Serum. This serum is rich in growth factors, peptides, and antioxidants, which help to improve overall skin health, texture, and reduce signs of aging. How to Apply: Use a small amount (a pea-sized amount is usually enough) and apply it evenly across your face and neck. Pat gently for better absorption. Moisturizer (if needed): If your skin feels dry after applying these treatments, finish with a hydrating moisturizer to lock in moisture and support your skin barrier. In the Morning: Cleanse: Start by washing your face with a gentle cleanser. TNS Advanced+ Serum: Apply TNS Advanced+ Serum after cleansing for its anti-aging and skin-repair benefits. You can layer this serum under your moisturizer and sunscreen. SkinMedica Even & Correct Serum: If you're also using this serum during the day, you can layer it after the TNS Advanced+ Serum. It will help brighten your complexion and even out skin tone. Note: Since the Even & Correct Serum contains ingredients that can make your skin more sensitive to the sun, always finish with a high SPF sunscreen (SPF 30 or higher). Moisturizer: Follow up with a lightweight moisturizer if needed.

Starting to see results

This is the first time I purchased SkinMedica Even & Correct Advanced Brightening Serum from LovelySkin but not my first purchase of this product. After four months, the dark spots on my face are definitely getting lighter and overall my skin is brighter. If you want to improve the dark spots, commit to being a faithful user. Definitely worth the purchase price.

Verdict is still out

I was a big fan of the predecessor of this product, SkinMedica's Lytera 2.0. I am not convinced this product has the same efficacy.

Amazing

My dermatologist suggested this in replacement of lytera. I miss the old formula but I’m hoping this works just as good. So far I am loving how it goes onto the skin and how nice my skin looks the following day.

Good product!

I rarely find something that seems to work for my hyperpigmentation on my cheeks and this product seems to work. Give it a few weeks to see a small difference and keep going. It goes on nice and creamy, but I do think it can pill depending on what products you use with it. I"m only using it at night since the pilling bothers me during the daytime. If used 2x daily I"m sure it will be more effective.

Skinmedica Even and Correct serum

I can def see a difference using the SkinMedica Even and Correct serum. I have been using it every morning on a dark spot and a scar that I have. I let it dry for a few minutes than use my CE Ferulic, than my HA Glycan serum. Let that dry than use my Color Science No Show Mineral sunscreen. That is my routine. Skin is clear, bright. Even and Correct is definitely lighting up the sun spot. Pleased with all of my skin care!!!!!

It definitely evens skin tone

Within about 2 weeks you’ll see a difference. It goes on smooth but I do wait a while a layer it with a moisturizer. Wear sunscreen when going outdoors while using

It Works!

I have been using this product every morning and evening for several years, and I just have to say it works. My skin is remarkably smooth and bright, which I noticed immediately. People are shocked to hear my age, I am often mistaken for someone ten years younger. All I can say is that it's worth the cost.

Problems with the pump

Having a lot of problems with the pump because there is more air coming out than the product each time I’m using it. Still too early to see any results but I’m sure it is a good cream.

Bring back Lytera 2.0

I used Lyra 2.0 for years and as someone who just turned 50 years old, was often mistaken for someone in their mid 30s. Before using it, I had horrible hyperpigmentation and when I began using Lytera 2.0, the results were unbelievable. I was very sad to hear it was discontinued and replaced with Even and Correct. However, I spent the money and went in with an open mind. This product is nowhere close to the efficacy of Lytera. The only thing I changed in my skincare routine was this product. Not only did I notice I began seeing dark spots that I had not seen in years, but also an uneven skin tone. It was such a difference that friends and family began to comment on it as well. (not in a mean way, but the fact that they noticed showed me it wasn’t just me seeing the lack of efficacy). It also pills if you put an oil based product over it. I would deal with that flaw if it was effective, but it just simply isn’t. What an incredible disappointment. If you read the reviews for Even and Correct, there’s several that are rated 4 or 5 stars, but in the comment section, it states that they have yet to see if it’s effective. So, draw your own conclusion from that. I really hope that the company reads these comments and decides to bring back Lytera which was a far superior product.

Hopeful!

For three months I used a vit c serum with 4% hydroquinone, which my dermatologist prescribed me (they sell it in their office). It did lighten the areas on each side of my neck. I do not have unevenness and brown spots/areas on my face, but unfortunately never really put sunscreen on my neck as regularly as my face over many years and now have this problem to manage. The 4% definitely works but you have to come off it for a while before you can go back on it. So I purchased this SkinMedica product, which is supposed to do the job of the 4% and am hopeful that it will at least keep it at bay, if not improve it more. I love the gel consistency and how it dries down fairly quickly without any heavy feeling and I do not notice any odd smell when I use it. So time will tell if it does what it is supposed to do. I feel like these products do take some time to work. Even my 4% took a while to show results.

Melasma Support - SkinMedica Even and Correct

I experienced severe melasma around 36. Now at 44, the melasma is gone and my skin looks better than it did 10 years ago. One component of my melasma journey was a brightening serum. Keep in mind, I don't think any product or serum will give you rapid immediate results. I used this product within an overall routine including in office treatments. I continue to use it because I feel like it supports reduction in pigmentation and discoloration and layers nicely under moisturizer or retinol treatments. Other things I did include: major reduction in sun exposure, hats, SPF every day, microdermabrasion, hydrafacial, retinol, got off hormonal bc, manage stress, minimize exposure to major heat Good luck in your skin care journey!

Even and Correct

I haven't been using it long enough to see any major difference. I gave it 5 stars as I think it will start working when I start using it more frequently. It does have a sloughing effect which I like. Just purchased the pads as well. I will write more hopefully soon.
