How to Choose What's Right for You

New to Tranexamic Acid? Start with your primary concern — here's where most people begin.

Tranexamic Acid: Frequently Asked Questions

What does tranexamic acid do for skin?

Tranexamic acid helps fade stubborn pigmentation, dark spots and uneven tone, and is especially valued for melasma. It works through a different pathway than other brighteners, which is why it's often layered into a pigment-fighting routine.

Is tranexamic acid good for melasma?

Yes — tranexamic acid is one of the standout ingredients for melasma, the stubborn, often hormonal pigmentation that's notoriously hard to treat. It's most effective used consistently and alongside diligent sun protection. See our hyperpigmentation collection.

Tranexamic acid vs hydroquinone — what's the difference?

Both target pigmentation, but tranexamic acid is gentle and works through a different mechanism, making it suitable for ongoing use and sensitive skin, while hydroquinone is stronger and typically used in short professional courses. They can even complement each other. See our hydroquinone collection.

Can I use tranexamic acid with vitamin C?

Yes — this is an excellent brightening pair. Vitamin C adds antioxidant radiance while tranexamic acid targets stubborn pigment, working through complementary pathways. See our vitamin C collection.

Can I use tranexamic acid with niacinamide?

Yes — tranexamic acid and niacinamide layer well together, both helping to even tone and fade discolouration while remaining gentle on the skin. See our niacinamide collection.

Is tranexamic acid good for dark spots?

Yes — beyond melasma, tranexamic acid helps fade general dark spots, post-acne marks and uneven tone, gradually brightening the complexion with consistent use.

Is tranexamic acid good for sensitive skin?

Yes — tranexamic acid is one of the gentler brightening ingredients, generally well tolerated by sensitive skin, though it's always wise to introduce any new active slowly. See our sensitive skin collection.

How often should I use tranexamic acid?

Many tranexamic acid serums can be used once or twice daily, but follow the specific product directions and build up gradually. Consistency over time is what delivers visible brightening.

Do I need sunscreen with tranexamic acid?

Yes — daily broad-spectrum SPF is essential. Sun exposure is a major driver of the pigmentation tranexamic acid works to fade, so sunscreen protects both your skin and your progress. See our sunscreens collection.
