"My teenage acne and young adult acne unfortunately left me unfortunate scarring and some discoloration in my face. I tried several over the counter scar treatments and each one was either sadly ineffective or was way out of my budget after a time. I gave this Banishing Cream a try and I was very pleased to find that first of all it was light and non-greasy feeling, it moisturized my face as well as I had hoped, and in just a few uses I began to see a significant change as the redness and appearance of the scarring began to fade! I'm very happy with my purcahse!"

Best Safe Skin Discoloration Cream
Date:March 20, 2012
"Prolonged use of contraceptive pills as well as aging caused the dark & age spots on my face. I also noticed marks due to pre-menopausal acne. I've been using hyrdoquinone for awhile but tried to use this Banishing Cream when it went on sale during fall of last year.
I was pleasantly surprised! My face spots lightened up gradually. I also liked the fact that this is a "safe" product to use unlike hydroquinone. I just ordered two more when it went on sale again recently.
To future users: This is not a miracle cream. Be patient. In time, your dark spots will gradually fade.

Wonderful moisturizer
Date:March 19, 2012
"I've been using this product for many years. I have very fair skin that freckles easily. Now that I am older the freckles just look like age spots. I apply this every morning (and then put sun screen on before heading outside) and every evening. It took a couple months for me to notice the freckles start to fade but because I've been diligent in using it I can now say the skin tone on my face and neck is noticeably more even and I can skip wearing foundation. Its not greasy and is an effective moisturizer as well and I have combination skin."

brought my confidence back
Date:February 28, 2012
"I bought this product on sale praying it would work. After having a apparent dark mark for years I lost confidence in myself and masked the spot but not treating the issue. After a week of use I saw a change and after 2 weeks I had a glow and the spot started to lighten. It feels great when my inner beauty can be shown on the outside without harsh chemicals. Thank You Avon keep up the Great work by making every woman feel beautiful one face at a time."

Excellent product for the price!!!
Date:February 16, 2012
"I discovered this product on another website, and decided to check it out on Avon.com. I am very glad that I did! I have several acne scars on my cheeks, that have resisted prior (non-professional) treatment. Over the first 4 weeks, there has been a gradual but steady lightening of the marks. I don't know if the marks will ever entirely go away, but at this rate, I can't complain. The product works, it is as simple as that.
I use it only at nighttime, and it is a very effective moisturizer as well. This product has made me an Avon client, for life.

beware
Date:February 13, 2012
"I started using this and the firming cream at the sane time. After a few days my skin became very irritated, dry, bumps and peeling. I don't know if it was one cream, the other or both. Unfortunately, I wont be able to tell because I'm not risking using the cream again. I didn't think my skin was that sensitive before, although I am allergic to the ingredient, benzyl peroxide or whatever the main ingredient in acne cream is. Beware!"

Nothing like it
Date:February 11, 2012
"I have been using Banishing Cream for years on a reddened area of my neck that is mostly the result of being very fair skinned. If used correctly and consistently it really lessens the redness and blends that area with the surrounding area. My husband uses it on some age spots on his hands and has loved the results."
