Topicals is a new bodycare line that's full of affordable solutions that help Gen Z address common concerns like psoriasis to hyperpigmentation. The WOC-owned brand was created to be inclusive, effective and fun, and it shares formulas with clinically backed ingredients that are safe for all skin tones.
Topicals is introducing itself to the world with two debut products: a whipped hydrating mask by the name of Like Butter and the Faded serum, which helps to correct discoloration and dark spots.
While Like Butter contains potent yet gentle ingredients like camellia sinensis leaf, ginseng root, colloidal oatmeal and turmeric to soothe inflammation and eczema, Faded relies on a combination of tranexamic acid, kojic acid, and niacinamide to address sun damage, scarring and also inflammation.
