Description
The Niacinamide 10% + TXA 4% Serum is ANUA’s brightening treatment for uneven skin tone. The 30 ml serum combines a high dose of niacinamide with tranexamic acid, two of the most popular ingredients for dark spots and the marks acne can leave behind, in a light, hydrating texture.
Key ingredients
- Niacinamide 10% – a form of vitamin B3 used to brighten, even out tone and support a smoother-looking texture.
- Tranexamic acid (TXA) 4% – an active that targets dark spots and areas of discolouration.
- Arbutin – a brightening ingredient listed by retailers at 2%, used against visible pigmentation.
- 3-O-Ethyl ascorbic acid – a stable form of vitamin C.
- Hyaluronic acid, panthenol, centella asiatica and ceramide NP – hydrating and comforting ingredients that round out the formula.
Who it is for
Anyone dealing with dullness, dark spots or post-acne marks who wants a brightening step that is not an exfoliating acid. Because 10% niacinamide is a high concentration, patch test first if your skin is reactive.
How to use
After cleansing and toner, warm a few drops between your palms and press into the face. Follow with moisturizer, and use sunscreen every morning: brightening results depend on protecting skin from new pigmentation.
Good to know
- Results on dark spots build gradually with consistent use.
- Pairs well with a hydrating toner and a barrier cream such as ANUA’s ceramide range.
- Check the full ingredient list on the Amazon listing before buying if you have known allergies.
