Reviews
- DJDonna J.Verified BuyerRated 5 out of 5 stars1 week agoSo far so good
I mainly bought this for the dark spots developing on my arms but also on my chest. So far they are getting a little lighter so I’m impressed and will continue using.
- ACarmando castillo c.Verified BuyerRated 5 out of 5 stars2 weeks agophenomenal 🌟
I like the combination of ingredients, in 2 weeks I see how my acne spots disappear little by little. It is an excellent product and packaging.
- VTVi T.Verified BuyerRated 5 out of 5 stars4 weeks agoWorks!
Excited that I don't have to go find another product like this. :)
- SSaiVerified BuyerRated 5 out of 5 stars4 weeks agoTHANK YOU DR.SHAH
I’ve struggled with dark spots from acne for a long time and have tried countless products with little to no success. However, after using Dr. Shah’s Dark Spot Cream for just one month, I’ve seen a huge difference in my skin. The spots have significantly lightened, and my complexion is much clearer now. I’m so grateful to have found a product that actually works, and I can’t thank Dr. Shah enough for creating this amazing cream!"
I’m adding pictures before and after without any makeup
- OOOkwudili O.Verified BuyerRated 5 out of 5 stars1 month agoAll in one Dream!!!
I absolutely love the simplicity of this serum. It contributed to me being able to be consistent with my skincare routine by taking the complex multi step approach away. I have used everything under the sun I can possibly think of and NOTHING has given me the results Remedy has in less than 2 months. Everyday I contemplate if I even want to wear makeup or not ( a thought I hadn’t considered for years—wouldn’t catch me dead without at least a little tint lol)
Our Remedy for Dark Spots is a targeted treatment for a common concern.
Fading the appearance of existing dark spots while simultaneously addressing the formation of new ones often requires a multi-product regimen. That’s why we’ve created a treatment that combines these steps into a singular remedy, simplifying your routine for even skin tone.

The RIGHT Remedy, for every CONCERN
