Tranexamic Acid Serum

Dark spots do their fading best while you sleep. The INKEY List Tranexamic Acid Serum is a concentrated overnight gel that goes on as the final step of your evening routine, pairing 2% tranexamic acid with vitamin C and acai berry to work on hyperpigmentation and uneven tone through the night.

What it actually does

• Fades the look of dark spots. Tranexamic acid at 2% is the lead active for reducing visible hyperpigmentation and uneven patches.
• Brightens overall tone. A 2% vitamin C derivative visibly brightens, while 2% acai berry extract promotes a more even-looking complexion — the brand positions the trio as working together on spots and radiance.
• Replaces your night moisturiser. Unusually, this gel is designed to be the last layer of your PM routine — you apply it instead of your usual night cream.
• Suits every skin type. Normal, dry, combination and oily are all listed. The formula is vegan, gluten-free, cruelty-free and comes in recyclable packaging.

How to use

1. Use in the evening only, as the final step of your routine.
2. Do your usual nighttime steps, but swap your moisturiser for this gel.
3. Smooth a thin layer over cleansed face and neck.
4. Let it absorb, then leave it to work overnight.
