• All skin types — especially those with sensitive or dull skin, or any skin with stubborn pigmentation.

Key Ingredients

• Clinically proven 5% Mushroom Complex. A fermented blend of Reishi and Shiitake Mushroom Extracts which strengthens and restores the skin while providing adaptogenic benefits. Reishi soothes and strengthens the skin barrier while Shiitake Mushroom helps to effectively brighten the skin through its naturally occurring source of Kojic Acid.
• 5% Niacinamide. The active form of Niacin (also known as Vitamin B3 or Nicotinic Acid) is one of the more stable active ingredients in skincare, with a pH around neutral. Reduces the appearance of pores and fine lines, improves blemish marks, and fades uneven texture. It also improves skin barrier function and its ability to retain moisture.
• 3% Tranexamic Acid. A powerhouse ingredient that can help reduce discolouration, fade dark spots, and even irregular skin tones for visibly brighter, less dull skin over time. It can also accelerate skin barrier recovery.
• 2% Alpha Arbutin. A plant-derived extract that works deeply on the skin to help visibly brighten, while also providing antioxidant protection. Evens and brightens skin tone and reduces appearance of excess discolouration, like dark spots or marks.
• 6 Brighteners & Peptides. 2% Licorice Root Extract, 1% Aldavine X5, Pancratium Maritimum Extract, Palmaria Palmata Extract, Pentapeptide-34 Trifluoroacetate, Arginine/Lysine Polypeptide
• Formulated without Silicones, Sulfates, Denatured Alcohol, Synthetic Dyes & Fragrances, and Essential Oils. Not tested on animals. 100% cruelty-free.
