Targeted care for stubborn-looking dark spots

A targeted leave-on serum with kojic acid and jojoba oil designed for focused application on areas of uneven tone.

Visible benefits

Texture & pores

  • Fast-absorbing drop application — smooth, non-tacky fluid layers easily under your daily or evening moisturiser.
  • Fast-absorbing, non-greasy feel — light plant-derived emollients.

Barrier & protection

  • Helps limit moisture loss — jojoba oil forms a light, non-greasy layer close to the skin’s own sebum.
  • Antioxidant care — vitamin E (tocopherol) helps protect the formula and the skin’s surface lipids.

What the science says

Kojic acid — Research on kojic acid found that it slows tyrosinase, the enzyme that drives melanin (pigment) formation, which is why it is used in creams for a more even-looking tone. [1]

Jojoba seed oil — Research describes jojoba 'oil' as a liquid wax made of long-chain esters, widely used in moisturisers and sunscreens for skin feel and softness. [2]

Sodium PCA — Research explains that the outermost skin layer holds water thanks to its lipids and to the natural moisturising factor (NMF), a mix of small water-binding molecules; when hydration drops, skin turns dry and flaky. [3]

The cited research looks at kojic acid, jojoba and the skin's natural moisturising factor in general; it did not test our serum. Kojic acid is ingredient 9 of 30, after the water, oil and humectants and just ahead of the fragrance; we print no percentage. Ascorbyl palmitate and tocopherol come after the fragrance, in small amounts, to protect the plant oils, not as a source of vitamin C or E effects. Kojic acid can make skin more sensitive to the sun, so use sunscreen every day.

These are published studies on the ingredients, not tests of this product. Study concentrations and formulas differ from ours; individual results vary.
