La Roche-Posay Mela B3 Serum, Dark Spot Corrector With Anti-Aging Melasyl + 10% Niacinamide, Discoloration Correcting Serum for Sun Spots, Age Spots & Post-Acne Marks

Magical. I recently saw a dermatologist regarding my middle aged face. She sent me out the door with a few samples of this and a few samples of sunscreens. Loved them all. But this. Wow. If you are treating your skin with prescriptions that cause redness or dryness but you must push through to see the results you want- use this too! Cicaplast B5 and this magical serum will have your skin feeling soft, smooth, moisturized and a whole lot happier. Initially, smoothing this into my skin feels luxurious and lovely. The serum moves easily, absorbs and feels hydrating. Immediately, my skin is happier. It’s even happier 20 minutes later. I put this on while getting ready for bed and in the morning after washing my face. 1 week in and I think there is a visible difference. I am using four new products on my face to help with the case of Getting Old and this is one of them. Cicaplast B5, a sunscreen and face wash- from this brand, La Roche-Posay. I never tried them till the dermatologist recommended and this brand seems fantastic. The dermatologist I saw was younger than me but her skin was amazing. She glowed and her skin was translucent and utterly blemish free. I was listening to everything she said and La Roche-Posay was her favorite brand for herself and to recommend. What else does she do to keep her skin supple and radiant? I should have asked! My skin has improved and I am buying another bottle for a friend and probably for my Mother. I do have sensitive skin (Oil of Olay moisturizer used to turn my face red and burn like fire). La Roche Posay products have been excellent and irritant free. Recommended! Try it. It’s good. (I have tried Chanel’s La Blanc line. Lancome. Philosophy. Murad. I like the La Blanc face wash and everything Shiseido. Everything else was forgettable and ineffective.) The La Roche Posay products I have used make me curious to try more of their products.

I discovered this brand from my flight attendant friend coz her skin is so amazing that she doesnt even wear foundation!!! So I started using Mela B3 as part of my La Roche-Posay set, and this serum is the one I reach for every morning and night. My main concern was that my skin got darker from constant sun exposure while cleaning our pool in the Florida heat. And this brand is really helping me to bring back my lighter skin!!! What I like about Mela B3 is that it feels lightweight, non-sticky, and soothing. No burning, no stinging, and no breakouts which was my biggest worry. It layers well under my other la roche serums and moisturizer, and after a few weeks, I’ve noticed my skin tone looks more even and some areas of discoloration are starting to fade!!! The only negative is the price, but for something that works gently and doesn’t upset my skin, it feels worth it!!! So these are my 4 la roche set •C12: Brightens and smooths skin, protects against environmental stress. •Mela B3: Targets dark spots and evens skin tone. •Hyalu B5: Hydrates, plumps, and softens fine lines. •Hydraphase: Restores moisture and brightness for smooth, fresh skin About the seal and authenticity I was bothered of not having seal so I made a research and found this •No, not every La Roche-Posay product is sealed some come simply in a box with no wrapping or seal. • Yes, some items feature protective elements like QR codes or holograms for authenticity. • Packaging styles can differ depending on the product type and region. If you’re ever unsure, you can usually check authenticity by scanning the QR code (when present) or verifying the product through their official website or app.

I absolutely love what this lightly scented serum does for my 68 year old skin! It is almost instantly absorbed, and in less than a week, the texture has become actually smoother and healthy feeling and looking. Dark spots are fading before my eyes, and I am thrilled about a scar on my chin actually barely visible. Is this a miracle? For me it is!!!

On my 3rd bottle. Have seen very slight fading of brown spots, but was hoping for more. Use this twice daily. Is there something better???

I've used a lot of skincare products over the past 60 years and you just know if something is good or not after this many years. The consistency and texture are very nice and I feel it is doing its job. Time will tell about the dark spots, but this brand has never steered me wrong. BTW: Their sunscreen is the best oil free I've ever used!

It’s working. Results take time but I’ve noticed the brown spot on my cheek is fading. Pics are not altered in any way. First pic is May 7. Second pic is June 29. Third pic is Nov 18. My bottle is almost empty. I applied most every night to the spot only.

Im on my second bottle of this. I’m really not sure it’s working so maybe not worth the price. It doesn’t irritate my sensitive skin at all so that’s something

It doesn't cause redness on sensitive skin, has a nice bubblegum scent, absorbs well into the skin, moisturizes, and gradually lightens dark spots. The downside? It doesn't last very long and it's expensive. Buy two or three of these serums at the same time if money isn't an issue.

Effective product for dealing with hyperpigmentation. Remember to use your sunscreen to prevent further skin damage

So far so good. Original product. I've noticed my skin tone is more even and the small wrinkles aren’t noticeable anymore.

Consigliato dal mio dermatologo. Ovviamente nessun miracolo, ma sto vedendo un miglioramento delle macchie, con un applicazione costante ed in combinazione con un esfoliante.

Compré este producto en octubre del 2025 y lo he vuelto a comprar (aunque esta vez me llegó chafado). Pongo cinco estrellas porque el producto las merece. Pero añado las imágenes de cómo me ha llegado esta vez. En fin, la dermatóloga me recomendó este sérum en concreto porque después del verano tenía manchas solares en el rostro. Y porque la Niacinamida tiene más propiedades de lo que creemos: Despigmentante, poros, rojeces Después de tres meses y medio utilizando este sérum, las manchitas se han difuminado más o menos en un 50%. Puede parecer poco, pero hay que tener en cuenta que comencé a aplicármelo poco a poco, porque este sérum contiene un 10% de Niacinamida, que es bastante si no estás acostumbrada... aunque haya despigmentantes más potentes. Comencé 1-2 noches por semana, y ahora me lo aplico 3-4. Incluso lo combino con el limpiador. ¡Voy subiendo en intensidad antes de que llegue el verano! Por qué me gusta 1. La Niacinamida es un componente que ahora incluyen muchos productos. Es despigmentante, antioxidante, actúa sobre el sebo y los poros, refuerza la barrera cutánea, actúa sobre las rojeces... Yo combino o alterno este sérum con Vitamina C y Retinol. Funcionan de manera distinta 2. Otra razón por la que me gusta este sérum es por su segundo componente, el Melasyl. Este es un activo patentado por L'Oréal y lo veréis en otros productos que parecen otras marcas pero pertenecen a L'Oréal, como por ejemplo, Vichy. Lo que hace el Melasyl, dicho así en bruto y sin entrar en tecnicismos es que no inhibe la producción de melanina, sino que evita que se formen manchas. Si utilizáis despigmentantes, sabréis que hay muchos activos que son más potentes, como el ácido kójico, azelaico etc. Estos inhiben directamente la producción de la melanina. El Melasyl, que tiene muchas búsquedas en Internet, dicen que es una de las moléculas eficaces para despigmentación y prevenir manchas. ¡Veremos lo de prevenir! 3. Incluye más componentes, como por ejemplo, un derivado del ácido salicílico, que es más suave que el ácido salicílico y cuya función es exfoliar suavemente, mejorar textura de la piel y complementarse con la Niacimamida y el Melasyl. 4. También incluye un retinoide suave, para mejorar la textura de la piel poco a poco y mantener la piel joven y elástica. 5. Y como no, también contiene agua termal. ¡Un clásico de La Roche Posay que calma la piel! En definitiva, es un sérum muy completo que puede aplicarse tanto de día como de noche y que no sólo elimina manchas, también las previene y mejora el estado de la piel. Con este frío, noto mucho los días en que no me aplico el sérum. Qué no me ha gustado: Como ya he comentado al principio, la caja vino chafada, como si alguien la hubiese abierto. Y además, el producto viene bocabajo. Parece más una devolución de alguien que lo ha vuelto a meter torpemente en la caja que un producto nuevo. Es la primera vez que me sucede y espero que la última. No se puede entregar un producto así, y menos un producto de cuidado de la piel. Es más, no quiero que me lo cambien. Directamente, me iré a la farmacia. Incluyo fotos del producto bueno, que se me está agotando, y fotos del producto "nuevo" que me ha llegado.

Too good
