The Guru Index verdict
Approved
✓Approved · 85%What the gurus are saying
The experts praise this serum for packing multiple brightening actives that work together to target dark spots and hyperpigmentation from different angles, reducing the need to layer separate products. The formula includes retinol, mandelic acid (an exfoliant), tranexamic acid, glutathione, niacinamide, and licorice root, among others. Those with sun-damage or post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation saw the strongest results; however, those with melasma found it less effective for their specific concern. One thing to keep in mind: because it contains retinol and mandelic acid, anyone using it should pair it with daily sunscreen and may want to ease off to every other day or a few times weekly if skin feels dry or irritated.
