What the community says

Pros

  • Contains 3% tranexamic acid combined with 5% niacinamide and 1% kojic acid for targeted hyperpigmentation
  • Gentle enough to layer with vitamin C, azelaic acid, and tretinoin without excessive irritation
  • Recommended for both morning and evening routines, with users noting improvement in acne scars and uneven tone

Cons

  • Not potent enough to effectively treat stubborn melasma or deep age spots
  • Requires consistent use over months to see noticeable results
  • Some users may find it insufficient alone without Rx-strength hydroquinone alternatives
