One of the early pioneers in skin brightening and addressing stubborn dark spots, Kiehl’s disrupted the skincare industry over 10 years ago with the momentous launch of Clearly Corrective Dark Spot Solution: a fast acting, exceptionally effective serum developed specifically for those facing loss of skin clarity along with discoloration and hyperpigmentation.

Today, Clearly Corrective Dark Spot Solution is India’s #1 Brightening Serum* as well as Kiehl’s #1 best- selling serum worldwide, demonstrating clinical efficacy across 47 skin tones and 5 dimensions of skin clarity, including visibly reducing the appearance of dark spots, boosting luminosity, visibly improving the appearance of acne marks, reducing sallowness, and uneven skin tone. The patented formula is fueled with a powerhouse combination of Activated C, a stabilized and potent form of Vitamin C, and buffered Salicylic Acid, a gentle yet highly effective skin-refining agent. Within the formula, these ingredients work to break down existing dark spots, while also helping to minimize new discoloration from forming for an overall visibly brighter, smoother and even-toned complexion.

Dullness and discoloration are some of the more prevalent skin concerns facing consumers of varying skin- types and skin tones.

Kiehl’s Global Consulting Dermatologist, Dr. Meghan O’Brien explains, “Because increased pigmentation can develop more over time due to increased sun exposure, dark spots and other clarity compromising conditions can begin forming beneath the surface layer of the skin long before becoming visible to the naked eye. One effective way to address these concerns is with products that are active upon application and deliver preventative benefits.”

With this insight in mind, Clearly Corrective Dark Spot Solution is designed to not only visibly decrease the number and intensity of existing dark spots, but also prevent future damage that can lead to discoloration.
