Conosci gli ingredienti

Scopri questo ingrediente

Tranexamic acid is a synthetic derivative of the amino acid lysine. In topical skincare, it is used to target visible discolouration, including dark spots, post-blemish marks and uneven tone.

It works through a different pathway from traditional brightening ingredients, making it especially valuable in formulas designed for persistent or recurring pigmentation.

Perché TOTOKA lo seleziona

Tranexamic acid offers a focused approach to uneven pigmentation without exfoliating the skin. This makes it easier to introduce into routines that already contain other active ingredients.

It pairs particularly well with niacinamide, vitamin C and alpha arbutin for a more comprehensive brightening strategy.

INGREDIENT SNAPSHOT

What it brings to your skin

The essential information, without the ingredient overload.

Tranexamic acid helps interrupt signals involved in excess pigment production. With consistent use, this can gradually reduce the appearance of dark spots and post-inflammatory marks.

It supports a clearer, more uniform-looking complexion while improving overall luminosity without removing surface skin cells.

Dove si inserisce

Apply after cleansing and toning, before moisturiser. Depending on the individual formula, tranexamic acid can generally be used morning and evening.

Introduce it gradually if your routine contains several active ingredients. Daily broad-spectrum sunscreen is essential when targeting dark spots and uneven pigmentation.
