FAQs
Why did you create the De-Spot Brightening Serum?
Because dark spots don’t come from one place so why treat them like they do? De-Spot is our take on full-coverage hyperpigmentation care. We created it to treat and prevent dark spots from multiple biological pathways at once. From inflammation and pigment production to cell turnover and barrier repair, De-Spot addresses it all in one bottle.
How can De-Spot help with melasma?
Melasma is complex, but De-Spot was built to meet it head-on. One of our star ingredients, 5% tranexamic acid, is clinically shown to reduce the appearance of melasma over time. Paired with azelaic acid and niacinamide, it calms inflammation and helps interrupt excess melanin production at the source.
Where does De-Spot fit into my routine?
Right after cleansing, this is your first step serum. De-Spot has a lightweight, silky texture that glides on like a primer. It’s hydrating, correcting, and preventative all in one. You can use it morning and night as the first or only layer. It also wears beautifully under makeup.
Can I use De-Spot under my eyes?
Yes, absolutely. De-Spot is gentle enough to be used under the eyes and can help with dark under-eye discoloration. It also primes the area for concealer, making it a multitasking must-have.
Is De-Spot safe for pregnancy?
Yes, De-Spot is pregnancy-safe and does not contain ingredients like retinol or hydroquinone. But as always, we recommend checking with your healthcare provider if you have any concerns.
Does De-Spot have a smell?
Nope. De-Spot is fragrance-free and has zero scent. That’s no small feat because most serums with high levels of actives tend to have an off-putting smell. Ours doesn’t. We worked hard to make it effective and comfortable to use.
Can I use De-Spot with vitamin C, retinol, AHA/BHA, or acne treatments?
Yes. De-Spot is formulated to play well with others. You can safely use it in the same routine with: vitamin C, retinol, AHA/BHAs and acne treatments. In fact, we designed De-Spot to work in synergy with our Vitamin C Serum: De-Spot corrects existing hyperpigmentation and vitamin C prevents new spots. Together, they’re your brightening dream team.
Does DE-SPOT help with pores and texture?
Yes. DE-SPOT isn’t just for dark spots—it also helps improve skin texture and clarity. • 5% Niacinamide minimizes the look of pores and balances oil • 5% Azelaic Acid gently exfoliates and smooths rough texture The result? Skin that’s brighter, smoother, and more even—on every level.
