Good results

I like the smell and ease of applying it. Not sticky or tacky. I'm using it regularly & I think it has faded some of the small spots. Waiting to see when my large spots will fade.

If “other” serums haven't worked 4 u, THIS is it.

After a month of using this product I can say, this does work. I have annoying dark marks on the corners of my lips/mouth area. They were pretty bad and there's still hyperpigmentation however it has improved my overall skins complexion SO much and lightened the areas. I'm so glad I didn't give up and tried this serum. I'm excited to finish my bottle and see my results!!

Works great for the price

I have sections of melasma on my forehead & both cheekbone areas. I have tried other products with a little success here & there but this product is one of the best I've tried so far. In about a month I've noticed gradual fading (though the melasma is still present). I find gently using a pumice stone and lightly rubbing the area first seems to make the product work better.

Love the texture

It's hard to rate right now. I just received the product. I haven't had time to really use it. I have dark spots and need time to see if it really works. Thank you.

I think it works but it is quite pricey

I basically went from having no skin care routine at all to buying a bunch of La Roche Posay products. I specifically purchased this one to help with acne scars. I took pictures before and after of 12 weeks of use. Here has been my consistent routine for the past 12 weeks: Morning - rinse with cold water, apply the vitamin c serum, then apply the SPF moisturizer. Night - warm water and the gel cleanser, final rinse with cold water, apply the mela b3 serum, then apply the moisturizer. I think the only noticeable difference in my skin from all of the products I started using is the acne scars fading a bit. I think my pores looks the same, I still get pimples, and I still have reddish splotchy looking skin. For such expensive products, I kind of thought my skin would look flawless after 12 weeks, maybe it just needs more time, or maybe I should look into using something else! Overall, I think this product in particular works, just because I definitely see the acne scars starting to fade. I just bought more, and plan to continue this routine at least for another 12 weeks (or until I run out). I will take more pictures then!

Wish I could keep using it

I had a horrible reaction to this product. My eyes swelled up and were horribly itchy. I went to the eye dr and was started on steroids. Through a process of elimination of products and testing, this was the culprit.

La Roche-Posay Mela B3 Meladyl

I’m very disappointed about how come Walmart allow people to sell fake products in their website such as La Roche-Posay Mêla B3 Melasyl. It can cause serious damage in our face that is fragile. I can’t recommend this product. I was stoned for the cheaper price. Please go and buy it in the serious skin care store. No1 is fake
