What the community says
Tranexamic acid 10% serum has a modest following in k-beauty circles for hyperpigmentation but often requires religious sunscreen use and patience, with mixed results and no quick fixes.
What people love
- Tranexamic acid at 10% targets melasma and stubborn dark spots
- Commonly integrated into layered Korean skincare routines alongside azelaic acid or niacinamide
- Lightweight serum texture that layers well with other actives
Watch out for
- Results are highly variable—some users report no visible improvement after a full bottle
- Not effective without strict, consistent sun protection, which is non-negotiable
- Can be redundant or ineffective if combined improperly with other pigments-fighting ingredients
