Burts Bees Brightening Perfecting Serum Reviews Summary

Effectiveness

Pros:

• "I notice a difference after a few days, and I don't use the whole line."
• "It says it takes 8 weeks to see a difference here but I have only been using it 4 weeks and can already see a change."
• "Works amazing at correcting dark spots."
• "I've been using this tonic for about a month now, and I've definitely noticed a difference in my skin tone."
• "Been using this in conjunction with their facial oil and micellar facial wipes. I have noticed my skins brighter, more even, pores look nicer, my scars seem to be fading."
• "Finally, I got a product that does what it says! I can already see some changes to my dark spots. Slowly but surely."
• "I have been using this product for about a month and half now and I absolutely love it! It has helped my dark spots almost completely disappear and keeps my skin glowing."

Cons:

• "I have applied this twice a day for 30 days and so far cannot see any fading of the dark spots."
• "Very average face lotion, not seeing anything great about the brightness factor. Will be switching lotions once gone."
• "Sorry, doesn't work at all. Age spots are still there and exactly the same."
• "I haven't noticed a reduction in dark spots (freckles mostly)."
• "Unfortunately after using the whole bottle I have to say that I saw no improvements in my skin."
• "Been using this product for a month now and how noticed no change. In fact I broke out and it only created MORE dark spots."
• "After a few months of religiously applying 2 times a day no brightening effect."

Scent

Pros:

• "This tonic is NOT like the toner's I tried in the past. No burning, no watery eyes just a pleasant lemony sort of scent with a cooling sensation."
• "It has a nice, mild scent to it."
• "The tonic has a refreshing citrus/lemon scent that I liked."
• "It's natural/floral/lemony but light and not obtrusive and it's gone as soon as the lotion is rubbed in."
• "The scent is really pleasant, some kind of citrus combination."
• "I personally love the smell (it smells faintly of lemon)."
• "Pleasant lemony fragrance and creamy oatmeal-colored lotion in this little bottle."

Cons:

• "It has a very strong scent, VERY strong, like a mix of marshmallows and orange cream-cycle ice-cream bars."
• "The first time I applied this, I immediately started thinking about Froot Loops cereal... that is what this cream smells like!"
• "It doesn't moisture much at all and the smell is not great BUT the glow is definitely there and that is very important."
• "Afterwards the odor that lingers is somewhat unpleasant and a bit strong."
• "I couldn't get beyond the scent."
• "But it smells bad! I Am not sure if the product was rancid or just smells bad but it is not eligible for returns so I will never know nor try their products again."
• "This smelled like lemon scented kitchen cleaner."

Texture and Application

Pros:

• "Very gentle - and you'll see results the first time you use it - because this refining tonic does such a good job clarifying your skin!"
• "smells very nice it doesn't feel greasy or oily."
• "It doesn't leave any bad smell, dries quickly, and doesn't sting or overly dry my skin."
• "This moisturizer is terribly sticky!"
• "It's easy to apply and comes in a nice little container."
• "This face cream is light, goes on smoothly, and absorbs easily."
• "Because I have very sensitive skin I spot tested on my hand and it has left it very smooth and supple feeling."

Cons:

• "It is so watery! I was really surprised, and I think it makes it more difficult to feel like you're getting the product where you actually want it."
• "The product kinda left a sticky feeling to touch on my face."
• "It's packaged in a pump -- and you may find that the pump dispenses more than you need."
• "This is the runniest one I've used. I don't like the consistency, as it's like applying water to your face."
• "The feel of this product is kind of heavy, and I didn't particularly enjoy the feel of smoothing it on."
• "This cream, however, is far too heavy."
• "The spray bottle that it comes in seems to spray all over and is a little messy."

Value for Money

Pros:

• "You are not going to find a better product for a cheaper price."
• "This by far has been the best value I have found. It works better than the $100 brands I have tried."
• "Being pragmatic, however, it's nearly impossible to find a good toner at this price."
• "Well worth the price."
• "Love, love, love. On my second bottle of this. Noticed a definite difference in my skin after a few weeks of using it."
• "Plus this company is environmentally friendly and only uses sustainable natural products, which is all the more reason why you should try this product."
• "This product works!! This is no overnight miracle worker by any means, but after the first bottle, once daily, there is an amazing difference on all spots."

Cons:

• "Expensive for what it is, I can get witch hazel for $1.99."
• "It's on the expensive side but I would say a little bit goes a long way and the bottle lasts for a while."
• "I have been satisfied with this product for a long time. Now it has almost tripled in price since I bought it in July 2019! Seriously??? What's the explanation for that?"
• "When did this get so grossly expensive? You can get on the BB website for $19.99!"
• "At this price, I don't think I'll continue the treatment beyond this one use."
• "The price is right. The consistency is not very good, very thin liquid. Didn't feel it worked very good. Will not buy it again."
• "Had some darkening spots in the summertime but this really didnt lighten it up much at all."
