Frequently Asked Questions

Can I combine it with vitamin C?

Yes—use vitamin C first then layer this serum.

Will it lighten my skin tone overall?

No—it targets areas of hyperpigmentation not your natural skin tone.

Can I use it with retinol?

Yes but alternate evenings to avoid over-exfoliation.

Can I use it during pregnancy or breastfeeding?

While many of the ingredients are considered safe we always recommend consulting your physician before introducing any active skincare during pregnancy or breastfeeding.

Does it sting on first use?

A slight tingling is normal due to the acids; reduce frequency if needed. We care for your skin: if a severe allergic reaction is suspected discontinue use and consult a healthcare professional.
