Combining proven brighteners with modern-day clinically backed antioxidants, they developed the ultimate solution for those dreaming of luminous skin without the effects of exfoliants and reduced risk of irritation.

Diacetyl Boldine & Licorice Complex and a Red Algae & Pea Complex are added for enhanced effects on evening dullness, increasing luminosity, preventing and fading the appearance of dark spots.

Key Ingredients:

3% Tranexamic Acid - A powerhouse ingredient that can help reduce discolouration, fade dark spots, and even irregular skin tones for visibly brighter, less dull skin over time. It can also accelerate skin barrier recovery.

2% Alpha-Arbutin - A plant-derived extract that works deeply on the skin to help visibly brighten, while also providing antioxidant protection. Evens and brightens skin tone and reduces appearance of excess discolouration, like dark spots or marks.

Red Algae & Pea Complex - A powerful combination that increases skin luminosity and promotes a more even skin tone and texture.

Lactobacillus Ferment - Strengthens the skin’s natural barrier, reduces visible redness, and helps calm sensitive skin.

Ganoderma Lucidum Extract - Reduces cellular oxidative stress, promoting a more youthful complexion.

FAQs

How is this product different from your other brightening products?
Both our 20% and 35% Vitamin C serums offer brightening, firming, and antioxidant protection, while our Mandelic Pigmentation Corrector Night Serum offers optimal pigmentation correction and exfoliation. This new advanced brightening formula takes both the maximal levels of brightening and pigmentation correction of both formulas and puts them into one, but with reduced risk of irritation.
Is the serum vegan?
Yes, the formula is developed respectfully with vegan lifestyle choices.
Can this be used to replace Vitamin C?
While this formula is great for brightening, it does not fully substitute Vitamin C, as our Vitamin C serums have superior antioxidant protection properties, firm skin & boost efficacy of SPF. Both can be used together for a supercharged treatment, as our waterless Vitamin C serums don’t have additional brighteners.
What products/ingredients can this product not be paired with?
This product is ideal for use with Molecular Barrier Recovery Cream Balm in order to help further support post-procedure or post-treatment recovery. Always consult with your doctor or dermatologist when using these products in your post-procedure regimens.
Their products containing AHAs, BHA, and/or Retinoids along with this product are also safe for use.
Is this pregnancy safe?
This product contains ingredients that are not suitable for use during pregnancy.
Can I use this serum if I have sensitive or reactive skin ?
Yes, this serum is specifically suitable for sensitive skin. Unlike AHAs & BHAs, tranexamic acid doesn't exfoliate which tends to make it gentler and less likely to cause peeling or stinging. This formula is designed without silicones, sulfates, denatured alcohol, synthetic dyes, or added fragrance, which may help reduce the likelihood of irritation if your skin is easily reactive.
If you have sensitive or reactive skin, it’s important to perform a patch test on a small area before applying it to your entire face and to introduce it gradually into your routine. If you notice persistent redness, burning, itching, or rash, discontinue use and consult a dermatologist.
How long will it take to see results on dark spots or uneven skin tone ?
The more consistently you use it, the more hyperpigmentation will fade in appearance. For optimal results, apply 1-3 pumps both morning and evening after cleansing and misting, and always follow with SPF during the day to prevent new dark spots from forming and protect the brightening results you're achieving.
Can I use tranexamic acid with vitamin C ?
Yes - tranexamic acid and vitamin C can absolutely be used together. For best skin tolerance and results, we recommend using vitamin C in the morning (for antioxidant protection and brightness) and tranexamic acid in the evening to help target the look of discoloration and uneven tone. This AM/PM approach lets each ingredient perform optimally without overloading the skin.
