What It Is

Clinique's fourth-generation brightening serum is a powerful dermatologist-developed solution for hyperpigmentation. The advanced formula, which includes Clinique's proprietary brightening molecule, UP302, niacinamide and even more vitamin C than previous formulas, delivers dramatic brightening results. It's clinically proven to visibly reduce stubborn dark spots, including post-acne marks, plus it visibly reduces irritation that can trigger future dark spots. Gentle enough for all skin types, including sensitive skin. Tested on all skin tones.

  • Skin Type

    For all skin types.

  • Skin Concern

    Dark spots, uneven skin tone.

  • What It Does

    - Helps visibly reduce stubborn dark spots, including sun spots and post-acne marks.
    - Helps soothe skin from environmental irritants that can trigger future hyperpigmentation.
    - Improves radiance, so skin looks brighter and more radiant, with a more even-looking tone.
    - Lightweight formula sinks in quickly.
    - Dermatologist tested. Safe for sensitive skin. Allergy tested. Non-acnegenic

  • Key Ingredients

    - UP302: Researchers screened over two thousand extracts and found Dianella ensifolia to have powerful properties. UP302, Clinique's proprietary brightening molecule, was bioengineered to mimic it, with powerful antioxidant and brightening benefits.
    - Vitamin C: This serum is made with two types of vitamin C (magnesium ascorbyl phosphate and ascorbyl glucoside) for precisely calibrated formulation. Together these potent brightening antioxidants help visibly reduce dark spots, including post-acne marks, and help skin tone look more even.
    - Niacinamide: Helps visibly reduce discoloration such as dark spots and post-acne marks.
    - Salicylic Acid: Gently sloughs off the uppermost layers of the skin to help reveal fresher, more even-looking skin.
    - Glucosamine: Helps weaken the bonds that hold dead skin cells together to encourage the exfoliation of surface discoloration for brighter, more even-looking skin.
    - Glycyrrhetinic Acid: Derived from licorice extract, the potent anti-irritant helps calm skin by visibly reducing skin irritation that could trigger dark spots.
    - Gyokuro: This green tea is hand-harvested in Japan in such a way that its anti-irritant properties are optimized for full potential. Helps quell the look of irritation that could lead to discoloration.

  • How To Use It

    - Use serum for dark spots twice a day, morning and night.
    - Dispense 1-2 pumps onto fingertips.
    - Spread serum all over your face, avoiding eye area.
    - Follow with moisturizer.
    - Daily sunscreen is imperative. Apply in the AM after your moisturizer.

Cause skin allergy

I tried once and my face developed rashes all over. This product carries the name of “Even Better” but is actually much worse. I have used the “even better spot corrector “ for years. Now it is no longer available and I tried this serum with similar name. Totally lost confidence in Clinique for putting up something so bad to the consumers while withholding something good.

Very nice feeling serum

I really like this serum. It goes on smooth and feels really good on your face. It is balancing out my redness, have not used it enough for the dark spots to lighten.

Surprisingly successful!

This product is amazing! I recently started having age spots appear on my hands. I remembered I had this product and started applying it morning and evening. Within about two days the spots are hard to see and after a longer time even less visible. I decided to get the large bottle to be prepared!
