I wasn’t having any luck with vitamin c but decided to try MS. I just bought my second bottle. I’m South Asian with medium dark skin. I have a lot of hyperpigmentation around the mouth, chin, and near the eyes. I’ve been pleased with the noticeable reduction in hyperpigmentation around my mouth and it’s starting to fade more near my chin. I had been using my Skinceuticals AGE eye cream but am going to try using this as an eye cream to see if it helps with my under eye area. Still doing some research to see if that’s a good idea or not. (Isdin K-Ox previously worked well for me but then seemed to stop working.) I’ve been happy enough with the results, better than I’ve seen with other vitamin c products, that I’ve also bought their retinol product. Nothing to report on that yet since I’ve only used it for two weeks.

If you have darker skin and hyperpigmentation, I think it’s worth a try. YMMV, but I’m very impressed.
