About

A salt combining tranexamic acid and mandelic acid, designed to address uneven skin tone and hyperpigmentation.

This ingredient combines tranexamic acid (an amino acid derivative used in medicine and cosmetics for its tyrosinase-inhibiting properties) with mandelic acid (an alpha-hydroxy acid). The combination is designed to target hyperpigmentation through multiple pathways. Mandelic acid provides gentle exfoliation while tranexamic acid inhibits melanin transfer. No EU restrictions apply to this combination at cosmetic concentrations.
