I've been using this product since I started noticing some freckle-like spots after wearing masks. 1. Brightens pigmented skin, has whitening effects (see photos) To be precise, it didn't lighten my existing freckles. However, it was effective on the pigmentation I got on my elbows from working out. With consistent use, those spots faded. Plus, recently, after removing acne patches, I noticed the pigmented areas are returning to my natural skin tone more quickly. 2. Low irritation After my skin turned red from using a retinol serum, I carefully chose this product. I'd used niacinamide serums before without issues, which was a big factor in my decision. Anyway, my face didn't break out or turn red. 3. Prevents melasma and freckles Rather than fading existing dark spots, this product seems to prevent them from getting darker or more numerous.
Cons1. Caution: High concentration of niacinamide While I wasn't too worried since I'd used niacinamide serums before, 5% is considered a high concentration for skincare. Results may vary from person to person. 2. Potential for irritation It's not completely irritation-free. On days when my skin was already irritated, applying this product caused slight redness in those areas. That's why I didn't use it daily and always applied it at night. 3. Not extremely hydrating The product description even suggests using it as a spot treatment at the end of your routine. If you have dry skin, I recommend applying plenty of hydrating serum first, then lightly applying this product last.
TipRecommended for those focused on preventing freckles and melasma.

It's a brightening product, yet it's wonderfully moisturizing.
ConsThe small tube format makes it convenient to use. There's really nothing to complain about.
