I was using proactiv but i heard it had benzoyl peroxide, which i heard made dark spots linger on.
Thanks! =)

Well, I can't say "definitely" because I have not tested everyone's skin in the world. But there are studies that dermatology journals that have found this to be the case in some people [at the site of the dark spot, not all over]. The solution is to apply bp on active breakout areas and then the brightening on the dark spots (which is the proper way anyways), then then when the breakout heals, apply lightening/brightening product to the dark spot. These lightening products are not preventative, so there is not point applying it to a dark spot that hasn't occurred yet. Work on healing the active breakouts first.Juice Beauty never did anything for me--wasn't strong enough, I don't think. I use a 10% glycolic acid cream at night and it helps speed up the fading of dark spots. I also use a less strong glycolic acid exfoliating wash.
I didn't know that about peroxide though... Is that definitely true? I find BP spot treatments and cleansers are they only ones that help keep my breakouts at bay.
