A lightweight, water-based serum designed to help skin look brighter and more even-toned. Formulated with kojic acid, alpha-arbutin, and niacinamide, it supports a luminous, refreshed appearance without heavy fragrance or oils.

Key benefits

  • Brightens the look of skin tone: Kojic Acid and Alpha-Arbutin work together to help improve the appearance of dark spots and uneven tone for a more uniform-looking complexion.
  • Reduces the appearance of discoloration: Niacinamide and Sodium Ascorbyl Phosphate help diminish the look of sun spots, age spots, and the visible marks left by blemishes for clearer-looking skin.
  • Hydrates and moisturizes: Glycerin, Betaine, and Sodium Hyaluronate attract moisture to help skin feel plump, soft, and comfortable.
  • Soothes the appearance of stressed skin: Allantoin, Licorice Root Extract, and Panthenol help calm the look of redness and leave sensitive-feeling skin looking more balanced.
  • Smooths the look of texture: Acetyl Glucosamine and Tocopherol help refine the appearance of uneven texture, leaving skin feeling smooth and visibly refreshed.
  • Supports a resilient-looking complexion: Antioxidants including Sodium Ascorbyl Phosphate and Tocopherol help defend against the visible effects of everyday environmental stressors.

How to use: Apply 3 to 5 drops to clean, dry skin morning and night. Follow with moisturizer and daily SPF 30+.

Ingredients: 

Aqua, Glycerin, Niacinamide, Kojic Acid, Alpha-Arbutin, Panthenol, Allantoin, Glycyrrhiza Glabra (Licorice) Root Extract, Sodium Hyaluronate, Tocopherol, Hydroxyethylcellulose, Phenoxyethanol, Ethylhexylglycerin, Sodium Phytate, Citric Acid, Sodium citrate.

Benefits

This professional-grade formula is designed to deliver visible skin transformations while maintaining long-term skin health.

Powerful Hyperpigmentation Correction: Effectively fades stubborn dark spots, age spots, and acne scars by inhibiting the enzymes that produce excess melanin.

Even & Radiant Complexion: Specifically targets melasma and uneven skin tone, revealing a brighter and more uniform glow.

Superior Stability: Unlike standard serums that turn brown quickly, our pH-balanced formula (5.0–5.5) uses Sodium Ascorbyl Phosphate to stay clear and potent for longer.

Safe for All Skin Tones: Engineered to provide brightening results for all ethnicities without the risk of rebound pigmentation or harsh bleaching.

Hydration & Barrier Support: Infused with Hyaluronic Acid and Panthenol to soothe the skin and lock in moisture, preventing the dryness often associated with active acids.

Anti-Inflammatory Properties: Licorice Root and Allantoin work together to calm redness and reduce skin sensitivity during the brightening process.

Key Ingredients

2% Kojic Acid: A natural fungal derivative that blocks tyrosinase, the enzyme responsible for melanin production, to fade existing dark spots.

5% Niacinamide (Vitamin B3): Strengthens the skin barrier and prevents pigment from reaching the skin's surface while regulating oil.

2% Alpha-Arbutin: A gentle, plant-derived brightener that works synergistically with Kojic Acid to reduce acne scars and melasma.

Sodium Ascorbyl Phosphate (Stable Vitamin C): A non-acidic form of Vitamin C that brightens the complexion without oxidizing or irritating sensitive skin.

Frequent Asked Questions

No. Our Kojic Acid serum was formulated including a buffer system to prevent ph drift over time.

Would this formula of Kojic Acid oxidize over time?

Is this safe for all skin tones?

Absolutely. Unlike some harsh bleaching agents, Kojic Acid is a natural skin brightener that is safe for all skin types and tones. It targets "abnormal" pigmentation (spots and scars) without affecting your skin’s healthy, natural pigment.

Will this serum make my skin more sensitive to the sun?

Yes. Kojic Acid works by inhibiting melanin production, which temporarily lowers your skin's natural defense against UV rays. It is essential to apply a broad-spectrum SPF 30+ every morning while using this product to protect your progress and prevent new spots.

How long does it take to see results?

Most users begin to see a visible reduction in dark spots and a more even skin tone within 4 to 6 weeks of consistent daily use. For significant hyperpigmentation or melasma, full results typically occur after 8 to 12 weeks.

Can I use Kojic Acid with Niacinamide?

Yes! This is actually a highly recommended pairing. Niacinamide (Vitamin B3) helps soothe the skin and strengthens the moisture barrier, while Kojic Acid works on pigment. Using them together can enhance the brightening effect and reduce the chance of irritation.
