What’s inside

The ingredients doing the work

  • Tranexamic acid

    Third on the list. It targets the discoloration behind dark spots and post-blemish marks, for clearer-looking skin.

    No. 3 of 39 on the list

  • Niacinamide

    Vitamin B3, right after water. It evens out tone and supports the skin’s lipid barrier.

    No. 2 of 39 on the list

  • Encapsulated retinal

    A fast-acting form of vitamin A, held in tiny capsules (the golden beads). It speeds up renewal so spots fade sooner.

    No. 27 of 39 on the list

  • Glutathione + idebenone

    Antioxidants that back up the brightening actives and help protect skin from daily stress.

    No. 18, 30, 31 of 39 on the list

  • Soothing support

    A ceramide and classic calmers to keep skin comfortable alongside the retinal.

    No. 22, 28, 32, 34 of 39 on the list

Supporting botanicals

  • Fig
  • Sunflower seed oil

  3. 3

    Pat in

    Follow with moisturizer, and wear sunscreen every morning.
