I didn't notice too much of an improvement in my dark spots and the texture of my acne scarring after using the 2 bottles of the face wash and 2 bars of the soap. I found the soap to be a bit abrasive, drying, and irritating if used too much. Left skin feeling clean however with somewhat of a glow. The product did leave yellow stains on my wash cloth and other surfaces it came into contact with. The company would also not refund me for my dissatisfaction with the product.
