Skinceuticals Discoloration Defense

Discoloration Defense is a layer-able, daily-use dark spots corrector clinically proven to reduce the appearance of key types of skin discoloration in all skin tones, including hard-to-treat forms such as stubborn brown patches and post-acne marks. Formulated with 3% tranexamic acid, 1% kojic acid, 5% niacinamide, and 5% HEPES, this serum for dark spots improves the appearance of skin discoloration, brightens skin, and evens skin tone in as early as 2 weeks. Due to the concentration of kojic acid in this formula, a shift in color is expected. This could lead to a light brown or amber color, but the formula remains effective.
