What it is

How to use

• AM: Cleanse, apply 2–3 drops of serum to face and neck, allow to absorb, follow with moisturiser and finish with a broad-spectrum SPF.
• PM: Cleanse, apply 2–3 drops to targeted areas or across the face, then use your usual moisturiser. Avoid combining immediately with strong chemical peels or high-concentration acids without professional advice.
• Start with once daily if you have very sensitive skin, then increase to twice daily as tolerated.

Why it works

• Genistein — an antioxidant that supports skin resilience and helps address damage linked to UV exposure.
• Hexylresorcinol — acts on pathways that contribute to visible dark spots, helping to even skin tone.
• Phytic acid — a gentle exfoliant that assists with surface discolouration and texture refinement.
• Bellis perennis extract — a botanical component that contributes to a brighter appearance and overall luminosity.

What to expect

• Initial improvement in skin radiance is often noticeable within 2–4 weeks.
• More significant reduction in pigmentation typically appears with consistent use over 4–8 weeks.
• Continued use and daily sun protection help maintain results.

Good to know

• Patch test on the inner forearm or behind the ear before first use if you have sensitive skin.
• The formula avoids retinoids; if pregnant or breastfeeding, consult your healthcare professional before starting new actives.
• Discontinue use and seek advice if you develop persistent irritation or a severe reaction.
