Topicals Faded Brightening & Clearing Serum
Description
Faded, a best-selling brightening and clearing gel
Treats: Hyperpigmentation, Melasma, Scars
This gel serum gently fades the look of your most stubborn marks, scars, and spots so that you can kick back and let your worries fade away.
Highlighted Ingredients:
- Tranexamic Acid: Helps reduce the look of dark patches and post-blemish marks. Prevents melanocyte (pigment cell) activation, initiation of melanogenesis (process that creates excess pigment in dark spots), and additional vascular development (pathogenesis of melasma)
- Kojic Acid: Inhibits melanocyte activation, mildly exfoliates skin
- Niacinamide: Reduces the look of discoloration and uneven skin tone. Interrupts pigment transfer from melanocytes to the upper layers of the skin where discoloration is visible, scavenges free radicals and helps to reverse oxidative damage, anti-inflammatory, refines pores and excess oil
- Melatonin: Interrupts communication between melanocytes and keratinocytes, limits melanocyte stimulation, scavenges free radicals
- Azelaic acid: Prevents tyrosine conversion to melanin; scavenges discoloration-causing free radicals in the skin resulting from environmental stress and sun damage
-Licorice Root: Boasts powerful antioxidant properties, anti-inflammatory, helps to break down deposits of excess pigment in the skin
- Madecassoside (Centella asiatica): Anti-inflammatory, powerful antioxidant, helps to accelerate wound healing and collagen production. Supports and nourishes damaged skin resulting from external stressors. Faded has a sulfur-like smell. We do not recommend using Faded in the same routine with AHAs, BHAs, or retinol. Safe for hyperpigmentation.
