Why it works

Targets the appearance of dark spots : The formula contains 1% Kojic Acid for targeted brightening care. Clinical research on kojic acid provides ingredient-level context, although it does not establish results for this finished serum.

Helps maintain moisture : Betaine and Sodium PCA work alongside Glycerin to help keep skin feeling hydrated and comfortable.

Adds conditioning softness : Jojoba Oil, Sea Buckthorn Oil, and Sunflower Oil provide emollient care, complementing the formula’s focus on a soft, conditioned skin feel.

How to use
  • Apply a small amount directly to dark spots on clean, dry skin once daily in the evening.
  • Follow with moisturiser. Avoid direct contact with the eyes and do not apply to irritated or broken skin.
  • Use sunscreen during the day as directed in the supplied product instructions.

How Targeted Dark Spot Care, 1% Kojic Acid works

How the formula works

THREE ROLES. ONE CLEAR SYSTEM.

Ingredient names explain what is present. The complete formula determines how those ingredients feel, layer, and work together.

01 / Brighten

1% Kojic Acid

Kojic Acid is the formula’s featured brightening ingredient. The serum is designed for direct application to existing dark spots as part of an evening routine focused on a more even-looking complexion.*

02 / Hydrate

Betaine + Sodium PCA + Glycerin

These humectants help attract and retain moisture, complementing targeted care with a hydrated, comfortable skin feel.*

03 / Soften

Jojoba Oil + Sea Buckthorn Oil

Jojoba, Sea Buckthorn, and Sunflower Oils provide emollient care. They work alongside Isoamyl Laurate to support softness and help the formula spread across targeted areas.*

With consistent use

WHAT TO
EXPECT.

Changes in the appearance of dark spots can be gradual and variable. These stages offer routine checkpoints, rather than clinically established milestones for this serum.

Evidence statusExpectation-ledNo numerical clinical claims supplied
ImmediatelyMoisturised + conditioned

The moisturising ingredients may leave treated areas feeling softer. An immediate change in dark-spot appearance is not established.

In 1–2 weeksAssess skin comfort

Use this period to check how your skin responds to the formula. Continue only if it feels comfortable, and keep daytime sunscreen consistent.

In 3–4 weeksReview your routine

If tolerated, continue the directed evening application. Any visible changes will vary; no specific degree of brightening is established for this timeframe.

In 5–6 weeksCheck for visible changes

Compare the appearance of targeted areas under similar lighting. The supplied information does not establish when results should appear or how much improvement to expect.

Individual results may vary. This timeline reflects expected cosmetic benefits with regular use and is not based on product-specific clinical testing.
01 / Prepare

Cleanse your face and allow the skin to dry before application.

02 / Target

Apply a small amount directly to dark spots once in the evening. Avoid the eye area and irritated skin.

03 / Complete

Follow with moisturiser. The next morning, finish your skincare routine with sunscreen.
