Wake up your dull skin. Products with vitamin C, licorice root, and other antioxidants and anti-inflammatory ingredients help to deliver nutrients to brighten your skin. Hydroquinone can work well in fighting discoloration, but it has a high absorption rate into the skin. It also has carcinogenic properties. Instead try serums with niacinamide, kojic acid, and licorice extract that work best for pigment fighting. A great product to give your skin a glow is our Lightening Rejuvenating Crème . This non-hydroquinone skin lightening cream will help to reduce hyper-pigmentation, brown spots and skin discoloration caused by sun and environmental damage. Glycolic acid exfoliates the top of the skin to allow the extra ingredients of arbutin, licorice, niacinamide, and mulberry to work synergistically to gently reduce pigmentary problems and brighten the skin for an overall glow.
