Main Ingredients
Licorice Root Extract
Licorice Root Extract contains compounds that inhibit tyrosinase activity, the enzyme responsible for melanin production. This makes it an excellent choice for fading dark spots and promoting a more even skin tone.
Alpha Arbutin
Alpha Arbutin is a potent skin-lightening agent that inhibits melanin production, helping to fade hyperpigmentation and dark spots while promoting a brighter complexion.
Niacinamide
Also known as vitamin B3, niacinamide has anti-inflammatory properties that help to calm and soothe sensitive skin. It also supports the skin barrier's function and can help improve the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.

HOW TO DO A PATCH TEST
Performing a patch test is a crucial step when introducing a new skincare product to your routine, as it can help you to determine whether the product is safe for your skin and whether you may have an adverse reaction to it. Here are the steps for performing a patch test:
- Choose a small area of skin on your inner forearm or behind your ear that is easily accessible and not visible.
- Apply a small amount of the product to the area and spread it evenly.Â
- Wait for at least 24-48 hours and observe the area for any signs of redness, itching, swelling, or irritation. If you have a reaction, remove the product immediately and rinse the area with cool water.
- If you do not experience any adverse reactions after 24-48 hours, it is likely safe to use the product on your face.
HOW TO USE
