It's clinically proven to visibly reduce stubborn dark spots, including post-acne marks, plus it visibly reduces irritation that can trigger future dark spots. Gentle enough for all skin types, including sensitive skin. Tested on all skin tones.
WHAT IT IS:
A dermatologist-tested, allergy-tested brightening serum that's safe for sensitive skin
WHAT IT DOES:
Helps visibly reduce stubborn dark spots, including sun spots and post-acne marks, and improve radiance; helps soothe skin from environmental irritants that can trigger future hyperpigmentation
Leaves skin looking brighter and more radiant, with a more even-looking tone; lightweight formula sinks in quickly
INGREDIENT HIGHLIGHTS:
UP302: Clinique's proprietary brightening molecule was bioengineered to mimic dianella ensifolia and found to have powerful antioxidant and brightening benefits
Vitamin C: Precisely calibrated formula includes two types of vitamin C (magnesium ascorbyl phosphate and ascorbyl glucoside); these brightening antioxidants help visibly reduce dark spots, including post-acne marks, and help skin tone look more even
Niacinamide: Helps visibly reduce discoloration such as dark spots and post-acne marks
Salicylic Acid: Gently sloughs off the uppermost layers of the skin to help reveal fresher, more even-looking skin
Glucosamine: Helps weaken the bonds that hold dead skin cells together to encourage the exfoliation of surface discoloration for brighter, more even-looking skin
Glycyrrhetinic Acid (derived from licorice extract): Potent anti-irritant helps calm skin by visibly reducing skin irritation that could trigger dark spots
Gyokuro: This green tea is hand-harvested in Japan in such a way that its anti-irritant properties are optimized for full potential; it helps quell the look of irritation that could lead to discoloration
