Product Review | Clinique Even Better Clinical Dark Spot Corrector

Hi everyone 😆
Here's hoping y'all are doing just fine!

So here, I bought this product for like a month before I got to use it. Even after I finally started using it, the lazy child in me was using this stuff like whenever I remember. 

I'm always like MAC studio fix powder can cover my spots so what's the point. I wasn't exactly hopeful. 



Main reason why I never thought about fading the not so terrible spots(in my mind) that I have, was this belief that whatever is going to fade spots would def bleach the skin.

Why did I decide to try this product?

So, I have this friend who's a Clinique skin care and makeup specialist. She worked for Clinique Nigeria ( I bet most people didn't even know Clinique was in Nigeria up until last year, think they moved to S.A).
Clinique was in Foschini at Ikeja City mall, they had a really big stand.
Anyways, right to the chase, I stopped one day to say hi to my "Clinique friend" and for like the few minutes I was there, women were just coming to buy this dark spot corrector.
And No, it's NOT cheap!



I was like Ha! Babe. tell me about this thing nowwww, See how they are buying it.
She goes, Bemi you don't have serious spots jor
Me: Ok oh!

Well, def wasn't ok, baby girl struggled to buy it another day.

Kept it for well over a month, someone spoke about it when I was out one day, I used it that night when I got home. Then maybe two nights after and irregularly like that. After two weeks, I was like ah! Waste of money.
Then one day, the day! I went on the Clinique channel and saw I wasn't even using it right.

3 pumps twice a day, then a moisturizer (better if there's sunscreen).
Got on this, and best believe in 2 weeks, the spots were almost the colour of my skin. FADED! NOTICEABLY!

I really do wish I took a photo before I started :(

If anyone told you about this product and you're still in doubt, It's magical!
Love love love!
I even noticed a difference in the texture of my skin. It feels great!

What I don't know : If this one bottle will fade ALL the spots on my face
I doubt though, I have refused to leave nuts alone LOL! More nuts, 1 or 2 breakouts here and there, a spot or 2 to fade.

What I know: It really does work.
                       It's quite pricey, but hey it doesn't bleach!
                       3-4 pumps are just right for the whole face and neck.
                     
Repurchase? Sure! (Hopefully I get spotless with lesser groundnut intake lol!)

Note: If you have severe spots, you may need 2 bottles. It takes forever to finish too. My first bottle still hasn't finished. Remember I wasted it for 2weeks not using it right and then I'm on my 3rd week now after restarting. Still hasn't finished.

I think it retailed for N15,000 or a little more for the 50ml I got.

Suffering from dark spots? I'd say go for it.
