What the gurus are saying

With five active ingredients including retinol, niacinamide, mandelic acid, kojic acid, and tranexamic acid, this formula is potent enough to work across various concerns for resilient skin. However, those with reactive skin may need to use it cautiously, as the potency and oil can overwhelm during flare-ups. Remedy develops each formula in-house without white-labeling, taking up to two years, so you're getting a truly unique product.

"One of the promises from Remedy is that we don't white label formulas. Even though it does take longer, which is why sometimes it could take us up to 2 years to launch a formula because it doesn't make it through stability because we have to do all the stability ourselves. But in the end, at least you get a unique product and at least when you try it, it's the first time you've ever tried a product like that and then that's a net benefit to you."

"This one from Remedy Skin is new in the market, by Dr. Shaw. It's packed, it has 5% niacinamide, kojic acid, mandelic acid, retinol, and tranexamic acid. If you don't have sensitive skin and your skin can handle a lot, this is wonderful for you. I do, however, find that every now and again when my skin is just going through it, I can't use it because it has quite a bit of oil in it. But it's a wonderful formulation that honestly works across the board."
