Frequently asked

Quick answers, in plain English.

1. Who should use the DarkSpot Correcting Day Serum?
This serum is ideal for all skin types dealing with: Melasma (hormonal or sun-induced) Brown dark spots (PIH) Sun tanning & uneven skin tone Stubborn pigmentation that resists regular Vitamin C or kojic-based products It’s suitable for daily use and is designed for even sensitive and reactive skin.
2. What makes this pigment serum different from others?
Most pigmentation serums treat only one pathway (e.g., melanin inhibition). This serum uses multi-pathway correction with: Cysteamine HCL (powerful depigmenting agent) Tranexamic Acid via vesicular delivery (targets melasma at its root) Encapsulated Vitamin C, Oxyresveratrol & Glutathione Nonapeptide-1 + Niacinamide Botanical whitening complex This means it blocks melanin at multiple steps while repairing the barrier for long-lasting results.
3. What results can I expect?
✔ Lighter melasma patches ✔ Faded dark spots and PIH ✔ Reduced tanning & dullness ✔ More even and radiant complexion ✔ Stronger skin barrier & less irritation ✔ Smoother texture due to mild exfoliation
4. Why does it have a mild sulfur-like smell?
This is completely normal. The serum contains Cysteamine HCL, a clinically proven depigmenting active known for its natural sulfur-like odor. The scent fades after application and does not linger on the skin.
5. Is it suitable for sensitive or rosacea-prone skin?
Yes. The formula includes Centella, Peony, Scutellaria, Cholesterol, and a Ceramide Complex, making it gentle yet effective. If your skin is highly reactive, start with alternate-day use.
