Brighten and balance your skin tone with SkinCeuticals Discoloration Defense, a dark spot corrector that reduces the appearance of hyperpigmentation caused by sun exposure, medical procedures or acne.
Formulated with 3% Tranexamic Acid, 1% Kojic Acid, 5% Niacinamide, and 5% HEPES, the treatment targets stubborn brown patches and post-inflammatory discolouration to even the skin tone and help to minimise the appearance of future marks with continued use. In as little as two weeks, the complexion will be unified, radiant and visibly healthier-looking.
Suitable for all skin types.
Free from parabens, silicones, fragrances, gluten and hydroquinone.
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.
Twice daily, apply three to five drops to face. For morning use, apply after a SkinCeuticals vitamin C serum and follow with a SkinCeuticals broad-spectrum SPF 50+ sunscreen and limit sun exposure while using this product. Do not use on irritated or broken skin. If irritation occurs, discontinue use.

Great product!
I have hyperpigmentation and acne prone skin. I love this product! It doesn't make me break out and helps with hyperpigmentation. You don't need a lot, so it lasts a long time.

I specifically use this on my decolletage
Another Skinceuticals product I use to help protect my investment of laser procedures. I specifically use this one on my decolletage because that area needs care, too. As someone trying to look my best, these products do what they are meant for.

Alright
Used entire bottle on a consistent basis, once daily, with my usual daily sunscreen and didn't notice any changes in discoloration. Even purchased a second bottle to see if it needed more time. Still didn't notice any big changes. It didn't irritate my very sensitive skin, which was a plus!

Discoloration Defense
I purchase my skin care products from Skin Ceuticals and the Dermstore. The serum products when first opened are a clear light yellow and over time transition to a dark orange color. To my surprise, the product I purchased from the Dermstore was the dark orange color when I first received it..I’m not sure if the cap open or what happened, but I am dissatisfied with my purchase.
