I bought this because an accident made me lose my usual moisturizer at a very bad time (was in the middle of a bad maskne breakout). Only been using it for several days, but it's already delivering visible results -- maskne has calmed down considerably, and is on the road to clearing out. With regular use, I think it would do a lot to brighten my skin. I'd have to point out though, that the ingredient list on BeautyMNL is incomplete (the full list can be accessed via Commonlabs' official website). Among others, it has Mandelic Acid (AHA), Lactobionic Acid (PHA) and Limonene, which may or may not be a dealbreaker for some buyers.
