I just purchased the Nadinola Skin Discoloration Fade Cream, after hearing about it here on the beauty boards. The directions aren't very informative, but from what I've been able to find online, you must use 2x day to see results within 3 months.
For ladies who have used this before - in what order do you apply the Nadinola in your daily routine? After serum, before mositurizer? Or as a last step after moisturizer? Do you use it in place of moisturizer? Do you really use it day and night? (The smell is off-putting, and I'm not sure I'd want to wear it in the daytime.)
Also, are you supposed stop using a Vitamin C product while using Nadinola? Wouldn't it be overkill? I was thinking about just using the Nadinola at night, then continuing to use my Vitamin C in the AM.
Any advice? TIA!

The smell fades quickly, so I wouldn't worry about it lingering like perfume all day.
I use a q-tip, rather than dipping a finger in it. I only apply it on the dark spots, not like moisturizer all over.
I don't use all those other things you mentioned (like serum) so I wouldn't know what order to do it in.

Thanks! Have you seen results, and how long have you been using it?

Yeah, I just dipped my fingertip into the jar and applied a small amount to the back of my hand - it actually feels quite drying. There is no way I could use this in place of my moisturizer.

I had a brown mark, about the size of my pinkie finger nail, next to my eye. I used Nadinola faithfully, twice a day, and it took about 30 days to fade completely. I think it says to expect results in 45 days, but mine was quicker. The spot has stayed away and I haven't needed to reapply the product.
You can tell from the reviews on beauty sites, amazon etc that it doesn't work for everyone (nothing does ) but this worked for me.

I'm glad it worked for you, and am hoping I get similar results! I heard you say that you don't use serums, etc - but do you wear foundation at all? If so, do you notice if the Nadinola affects it's performance during the day?

No, I don't wear any make-up, just lipstain/gloss. Maybe that's why it worked so well for me? No competing products to react with.

Yes, this is what I'm most nervous about - because I already have a skincare regimen that is working for me, but I would like some additional help with my sunspots and melasma.

try alpha hydrox spot light found at ulta for about $10. That one has worked the BEST for me and I've been battling brown spot for years. I usually apply after washing face both morning and night. I wait about 15 minutes before applying other products. Since my brown spots cover the cheek area, I generously apply on those areas. Happy to say that a significant change is now apparent.
