A brightening serum with 10% niacinamide and 4% tranexamic acid, made for dark spots and uneven skin tone.
A serum from the Korean skincare brand Anua, in a 30 ml dropper bottle. It combines 10% niacinamide, a form of vitamin B3, with 4% tranexamic acid (TXA). It is a cosmetic for use on the skin.
Pigment is made in pigment cells and then handed on to the skin cells around them. Niacinamide slows that hand-over, so less pigment reaches the surface; in a 2002 study, a niacinamide cream faded dark spots more than a plain cream within 4 weeks. Tranexamic acid blocks plasmin, a signal that sunlight switches on in skin and that encourages pigment cells to make more. Dermatologists use it for melasma, a stubborn kind of dark patch.
Results build over weeks of regular use, and dark spots come back with sun exposure, so daily sunscreen matters. Patch-test first and keep it away from the eyes.
