If you've tried cream after cream with no results, it's not your fault — it's the products. They only work on the surface. This one blocks the signal responsible for new pigmentation at the source.

Does this cream suit my skin type?
Different skin concerns respond differently to brightening actives. Find out whether this cream is the right solution for your concern, in just 30 seconds.
What the cream does for your skin:
Arbutin 7% (70,000 ppm)
The most powerful brightening ingredient in the formula. Arbutin directly inhibits tyrosinase, the enzyme that drives melanin overproduction, to fade existing dark spots and even out skin tone without irritation.
Tranexamic Acid 4% (40,000 ppm)
TXA blocks the UV-triggered signals that start new pigmentation. Not just treating what is already there, but actively protecting against what could form. That is what makes your results actually last.
Niacinamide
A versatile vitamin B3 that smooths texture, minimises pores and boosts the effect of the other brightening actives for faster, more even results.
Glutathione
A powerful antioxidant that works alongside Arbutin to enhance the skin's overall radiance, neutralise free radicals and support a longer-lasting glow.
Hyaluronic Acid
Draws moisture deep into the skin and holds it there, so the actives work in a well-hydrated environment, and skin feels comfortable, soft and plump all day.
Ceramides & Squalane
Reinforce the skin barrier and lock in moisture, preventing the dryness and sensitivity that aggressive brightening formulas so often cause. Skincare that actually cares.
The formula is developed to clinical standards. Active concentrations have been independently verified to be effective at the stated levels:

ACNE BEFORE & AFTER
I've had dark spots along my cheeks for as long as I can remember, the kind foundation never really covered. After about ten days of using it at night, I noticed a real difference. By week three they had almost completely disappeared. My skin tone looks so even and clear now. I stopped reaching for concealer without even thinking about it.
Sarah E.
I've tried vitamin C, kojic acid and just about everything in between. Nothing has touched my hyperpigmentation like this cream. It absorbs instantly, leaves no sticky residue, and every morning my skin looks a little brighter and clearer. I've almost stopped using full-coverage foundation altogether. That alone is amazing.
Emilie R.
I use it morning and night and my skin has genuinely changed. Friends keep asking what I've changed in my routine. It doesn't irritate my sensitive skin in the slightest, it just quietly does its job. My complexion looks smooth, even and glowing in a way I've never seen before.

Hydration & Renewed Radiance
"Arbutin at this concentration directly disrupts the melanin pathway. It's one of the most effective and best-tolerated brightening actives in Korean dermatology."
Dr. Ji-Yeon Park
Dermatologist, specialising in Korean skincare science
"TXA at this dose is clinically recognised as one of the most effective topical actives for preventing pigmentation from returning. The results speak for themselves."
Dr. Sarah Mitchell

"A brightening formula without barrier support causes more problems than it solves. This formulation handles both at once, and that is exactly what makes it unique."
Dr. Michael Nyström
Doctor (MD) specialising in skin barrier and pigmentation
"The combination of Arbutin and Tranexamic Acid is clinically well founded for treating melasma, post-acne marks and sun damage. The concentrations in this formula are effective."

YOUR CONCERNS, ANSWERED
Our formula is clinically tested to target the root causes of uneven, dull and pigmented skin.
HOW WE SOLVE IT
Targets melanin overproduction right at the source.
The formula combines Arbutin and Tranexamic Acid to break the melanin synthesis pathway, fading existing dark patches and preventing new ones from forming.
HOW WE SOLVE IT
Brightens and evens out skin tone, without aggressive bleaching.
Niacinamide and Glutathione work together to reduce the transfer of melanin to skin cells, visibly evening out tone for a balanced, natural result.
HOW WE SOLVE IT
Fades existing spots and protects against new ones.
Highly concentrated actives target hyperpigmentation where it forms, in the melanocyte layer, visibly fading spots over time without stressing or damaging the skin barrier.
HOW WE SOLVE IT
Restores the radiance hiding beneath dead skin cells.
A blend of brightening botanical extracts and barrier-strengthening ingredients clears away dullness and keeps skin hydrated and resilient, revealing a natural glass-skin glow.
HOW WE SOLVE IT
Brightens without compromising the integrity of your barrier.
Unlike aggressive acids, the formula is dermatologist-tested and free from irritants. Soothing botanical extracts work alongside the actives to strengthen the barrier while they correct, suitable for all skin types.
HOW WE SOLVE IT
Fades the marks acne leaves behind, and prevents new ones.
Post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation responds powerfully to Arbutin and Tranexamic Acid at clinical doses. The formula fades red and brown acne marks while inhibiting new pigmentation beneath the surface as skin heals.
HOW WE SOLVE IT
Targets deep-set pigmentation whatever the cause.
Whether the hyperpigmentation is caused by sun, hormones or inflammation, Arbutin at 70,000 ppm and Tranexamic Acid at 40,000 ppm target it at the source. The formula fades what is already visible and blocks what is about to form.
THREE WAYS THIS FORMULA FIGHTS PIGMENTATION RIGHT AT THE SOURCE
Most dark spots form when melanin production runs out of control, triggered by UV exposure, hormones or inflammation. The result is stubborn marks that ordinary moisturisers never reach.
At 70,000 ppm, Arbutin directly inhibits tyrosinase, the enzyme behind uncontrolled melanin production. It fades existing spots and evens out skin tone without irritation.
Arbutin at this concentration directly disrupts the melanin pathway. It is one of the most effective and best-tolerated brightening actives in Korean dermatology.
DERMATOLOGIST-REVIEWED FORMULA
UV exposure triggers melanocytes to overproduce melanin, even on the days you do not burn. Without active treatment, new spots keep forming, no matter how carefully you treat the existing ones.
Tranexamic Acid at 40,000 ppm blocks the UV-triggered signals that cause new pigmentation. What fades, stays faded.
TXA at this dose is clinically recognised as one of the most effective topical actives for preventing the return of UV-caused pigmentation.
DERMATOLOGIST-REVIEWED FORMULA
Brightening without barrier support creates a vicious circle. A weakened barrier makes pigmentation worse over time, not better. The right skincare strengthens, it does not strip.
Niacinamide, Ceramides, Hyaluronic Acid and Squalane maintain a healthy, well-hydrated barrier so actives penetrate better, and skin stays comfortable throughout the whole brightening process.

Everything you need to know before you open your first jar.
Most customers notice a visible difference in dark spots and skin tone within 7 to 14 days of consistent daily use. For deeper pigmentation, melasma or long-standing spots, expect 4 to 6 weeks. Consistency is key: skipping days noticeably slows results.
Yes. The formula is dermatologist-tested and scored 0.0 in irritation testing. It contains no parabens, artificial fragrance or aggressive acids. If your skin is very reactive, we recommend a patch test on the inside of your arm before first applying it to the face.
Yes, and we recommend it. Morning use targets new spot formation during the day. Evening use lets the actives work while your skin is in its natural repair mode. Always follow with sunscreen in the morning to protect your results.
We offer a 60-day satisfaction guarantee, no conditions, no hassle. Contact us within 60 days of delivery and we will refund you in full. We stand fully behind the formula.
Yes. The cream pairs well with most actives. If you have sensitive skin, we recommend alternating: Arbutin and TXA in the morning, retinol at night, to avoid unnecessary strain on the skin barrier. Vitamin C can be used in the same routine without any issues.
Yes, and it is not optional. Tranexamic Acid blocks UV-triggered pigmentation, but if you do not protect your skin from the sun you risk creating new pigmentation as fast as the cream fades the existing kind. SPF 30 or higher every morning is essential for the brightening to actually last.
A pea-sized amount is enough for the whole face. Apply to clean, dry skin and massage in circular motions until fully absorbed. For targeted treatment of specific spots, you can layer a little extra directly on the area.
Yes. The formula is designed to be effective and safe on all skin tones, including deeper skin tones that are often more prone to developing post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation. Arbutin is one of the few brightening actives that is well tolerated and clinically verified for all complexions.
Yes. Arbutin is one of the gentlest brightening ingredients and suits even thin, delicate skin. Apply a thin layer on the spot, but avoid the eyelid and the area closest to the lashes. Do a small patch test first if you like.
I have seen more improvement from this cream than from any facial or laser treatment I have had.
The cream is light and fresh. My skin feels hydrated all day.
I bought it on a whim and now I am on my third jar. My skin has never looked so bright and even.
The best cream I have tried for dark spots. Buying again.
I have tried acids for brightening but they irritated my sensitive skin. This is so much gentler and still works.
Three weeks in and the old sun spots on my cheeks have visibly faded. I keep checking the mirror in disbelief.
Absorbs in seconds, no greasy film, and it sits perfectly under makeup. My hyperpigmentation is finally fading.
Took about a month to really see it, but my melasma is lighter than it has been in years. Sticking with it.
My post-acne marks have faded so much that I finally feel comfortable going out without foundation.
Gentle enough for my reactive skin and it actually works. My tone looks so much more even now.
I was sceptical about the price but it lasts for months and a little goes a long way. Worth every penny.
My dark spots from years of sun damage are noticeably lighter. The glass-skin glow is real.
Lovely lightweight texture and no irritation. Results are gradual but definitely there with daily use.
Honestly the first brightening cream that has done anything for my melasma. I have repurchased twice.
