Doesn't Work.
Date:January 3, 2013
"I've used this product every morning and every night each day for over a month now. Whenever I used this product, I'd massage it in for several minutes to make sure my skin soaked it up.
I have some discoloration on my shoulders from my bra straps (I'd exercise in a normal bra that I'd clasp in the back to make it more halter-like). I also have melasma around my mouth as well as hyper-pigmentation and acne scarring that came once in a while.
I didn't expect much out of this product to fix the hyper-pigmentation and melasma around my mouth, but this product didn't even do anything for my acne scarring or the discoloration on my shoulders. I had hope that this would start working after a month since a lot of the reviews claimed to have results after 2 weeks. I'm moving onto the end of my 5th week with nothing to show that this product works even on the simplest discoloration.
I will give it this much - I wasn't in the habit of moisturizing and this product got me to moisturize daily because I was expecting some kind of results. As a normal moisturizer, this is great. My skin feels plump and stays moisturized all day.
I can't say I recommend this to anyone. I didn't get any results with evening my skin tone by using this product. I'll still use it because it's a pretty good moisturizer. However, I've found that natural remedies work best at healing the tough dark patches of skin (lemon juice + vitamin e oil pure + diet change)."

"I started using this cream in the winter. I bought it to remove the freckles on my hands and arms. I noticed a difference the very first week! Now I use it regularly. I'm a master gardener who sometimes forgets to use sunscreen in the summer, this cream helps remove the freckles."

"I have tried expensive bleaching creams that take forever to work. Avon banishing cream works really fast. Its wonderful, it clears your skin and gets rid of all the unwanted spots, it evens your tone.
I just love it!"

Worth EVERY PENNY!
Date:December 19, 2012
"After years of being a sun worshiper, I have uneven skin color and tone. I was skeptical that this would work however boy was I wrong! This is fantastic! Not only is my skin tone more even but the dark spots from sun damage are fading. I have vitilago and certain patches of my skin are lighter or darker than others. Now they are fading and my skin tone is much more even. This is worth every penny! I use it at night after washing my face, before bed and I swear, IT WORKS!"

"I saw a difference within 5 days, I use it on the dark spots created by wearing eye glasses. The nose pads cause discoloration on the bridge of the nose. I've also used it on a dark scar near my left eyebrow."

Aging Spot Vanished
Date:December 7, 2012
"I had a rather large "spot" or rough patch next to my nose--very noticeable. My dermatologist called it an aging spot (I'm 32 years old), and he told me nothing would remove it from my face, and that over time, I could expect it to enlarge. He said it was like a 'barnacle on the side of a ship." Gross, eh? Any time I wore make-up or used a lotion with facial tint in it, it would darken the spot horribly--so no way to cover it up with make-up to try to hide it. Make-up only made it stand out more.
I tried this banishing cream by Avon..... and this aging spot was 100% REMOVED (not improved, but REMOVED) from my face--after so many applications, the spot little by little peeled off of my face, totally painlessly and has never returned. The skin in that area is now completely smooth and clear. Not only can you not SEE it, you also cannot FEEL it. It is GONE. Before, it felt like a rough patch, bumpy. Now it's completely smooth, like baby's skin. Even more, when I wear make-up now, there is NO darkening in that area at all. It's as if the aging spot never existed."

Excellent
Date:October 24, 2012
"Any time I'm thinking of buying any new product, especially from a completely different maker, I read reviews. Needless to say, I bought the product and gave it a try. It's only been about 2 weeks, and I have noticed my skin is much better looking. I had lots of spots from constantly picking at my face, and they have either disappeared or are very light. This is the happiest I have been with my face in a very long time. I am no longer picking at my face because I simply love how my skin is starting to feel.
Give it a try, you won't lose anything, except spots. :)"

Great skin lightener
Date:September 23, 2012
"This is a wonderful product. I like it especially because it doesn't contain any hydroquinone and parabens - so it's safe to use. Makes my skin so soft and after 3 days (using it only at night) I saw a difference. It's been about 2 weeks now and the dark spots on my skin are much, much lighter. So it's a regimen you have to stick to. I would probably see faster results if I use it morning and night. Please don't ever change or discontinue this product. : )"

LOVE this product

"I just started using this after I fell in love with the AVON Solutions Firming Cream. What a great VALUE with results. My skin started getting brighter in a few days. Exfoliate as well. Works with dark marks and discolorations. Give both products a try."

"Haven't used this product long enough to notice a difference as yet in the brown spots on face. I will continue using because I trust Avon products to do what they are advertised to do. I think with skin lighteners it does take time. The price is the best thing about it so far."

unexpected benefits for aging skin
Date:August 24, 2012
"I bought this to see if it would help with age spots and it does a bit but its greatest, unexpected benefit is that it slowly gets rid of the odd bumps and growths that are part of aging. After two weeks of daily use, it dissolved a small mole that first appeared on my cheek a few years ago; and slowly it dissolved some small skin growths on my temple and brow. I use it regularly to keep them from recurring. I recommended this to my sister and bought some for my daughter and a friend."
