Key Benefits
- Fades post-acne marks: Tranexamic acid blocks signals that trigger excess melanin
- Brightens uneven tone: Niacinamide reduces pigment transfer and strengthens your skin barrier
- Smooths texture: HEPES gently resurfaces to enhance active absorption
- Targets stubborn discoloration: Multi-pathway formula works on melasma, sun spots, and hormonal dark patches
- Safe for daily use: Non-irritating formula suitable for morning and evening application
Key Ingredients
Tranexamic Acid (1.8%): Interrupts melanin production signals to stop dark spots before they form. Niacinamide (5%): Brightens your complexion while strengthening the moisture barrier. HEPES (5%): A gentle acid that resurfaces your skin and primes it for deeper ingredient penetration. These three actives work together to address discoloration from multiple angles, delivering visible clarity in 4-6 weeks.

Frequently Asked Questions
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I use this serum with retinol?
Yes, you can layer Discoloration Defense with retinol. Apply this serum first, wait one minute, then follow with your retinoid at night. Both target different pigment pathways for stronger results.
How long before I see dark spots fade?
Most users notice visible fading of post-acne marks within 4 weeks. Stubborn melasma or sun damage may take 8-12 weeks of consistent twice-daily use with SPF50+ every morning.
Does this work on melasma?
Yes, tranexamic acid is clinically proven to reduce melasma when used consistently with strict sun protection. Apply morning and evening and wear broad-spectrum SPF50+ daily.
Will this irritate sensitive skin?
No, this formula is non-irritating. Unlike hydroquinone or high-strength acids, tranexamic acid and niacinamide are gentle enough for sensitive and rosacea-prone skin. Patch test if concerned.
