Spot-Correcting Skin Serums

Skinceuticals' Discoloration Defense is an Acid-Based Skin Product

The 'Discoloration Defense' serum by SkinCeuticals is a powerful skincare product developed to combat dark spots and any discolored areas. The serum can be applied in a layering method and daily use will reduce any discolored spots, post-acne scars, and stubborn patches. The strong product is powered by ingredients such as 1% of kojic acid, 3% tranexamic acid, 5% niacinamide, and 5% HEPES.

This combined formulation works together to tackle spots to achieve a more even skin tone within two weeks time. Notably, the Discoloration Defense serum is free of any hydroquinone, gluten, silicone, fragrances, or paraben. It is a simple skincare product that can be implemented into an at-home routine and comparable to treatments such as chemical peels and non-ablative laser. It is noted that users should limit sun exposure when using the product and to apply 3-5 drops each day.
