A skincare innovation 10 years in the making, Clinique's Even Better Clinical Dark Spot Clearing Serum is the fourth iteration of the brand's Even Better Clinical Dark Spot franchise. This new, advanced formula pairs Clinique's proprietary UP302 molecule with two types of Vitamin C, plus niacinamide.
In clinical testing on all skin tones and types—including sensitive skin—after 12 weeks, the serum delivered up to a 49% reduction in dark spots from aging and the sun on lighter skin tones. On deeper skin tones, the Even Better Clinical Dark Spot Clearing Serum provided up to a 56% reduction in PIH/post-acne mark intensity.
This serum offers a potent solution for hyperpigmentation, brightening age spots and fading post-acne marks without a laser.
