I oly started using it not too long ago but I'm in love with it so far. I have a dehydrated skin so it's usually rather dry and slightly oily when I wake up but with this mask it just has a soft and moisturised feeling which I love. The texture itself is creamy but very lightweight. It has a slight scent but it doesn't bother me. I think it does help with fading acne scars - I use it together with vitamin C drops and I think they're a pretty good combo (if you skin is used to vitamin c and acids and takes them well). It also contains my favourite ingredients: vitamin C, panthenol, AHA. Can't say much about the brightening effects itself as I already have an extremely pale skin.
