What it is
This concentrated whitening lotion prevents dark spots from forming. Tranexamic acid, a medicated whitening lotion, prevents dark spots and leaves skin translucent. It penetrates deep into the skin, resulting in a truly translucent complexion. Feature 1: Stops excessive melanin production, preventing dark spots. Feature 2: Prevents dry skin roughness, which can lead to dark spots. Feature 3: Because it's concentrated, the active whitening ingredients are delivered directly.. Tranexamic Acid Whitening Mechanism: Dark spots occur when inflammation caused by UV rays or external stimuli leads to the production of melanin. Stubborn dark spots are caused by the accumulation of UV and other stimuli, resulting in the continued excessive production of melanin, the underlying cause of dark spots. Therefore, even with UV protection and melanin excretion, dark spots will continue to form unless excessive melanin production is stopped. Tranexamic acid inhibits the production of plasmin, a substance that activates melanocytes, which produce melanin, and suppresses inflammation caused by stimuli, thereby suppressing excessive melanin production. By doubling down on the mechanism behind dark spots, it thoroughly prevents their formation.

How to use
1. After applying lotion, gently apply an appropriate amount (2-3 drops) to the entire face, allowing it to fully penetrate the skin. 2.

I bought it elsewhere, but this one blends in well with my skin.
I used it by applying it directly to my skin. It feels like my skin is softer and whiter. It wore off very quickly when I applied it directly, so next time I'll mix it with other cosmetics.
The temperature difference caused by the air conditioning made my face very red, so I use this with 2-3 drops of lotion. It's a little better than not using it at all, so I'll continue using it.
I used up all three bottles, but I didn't feel much effect and the amount was small, so it wasn't cost-effective. I decided to switch to the cream type.
I was looking for tranexamic acid because I was worried about melasma! Melasma is caused by inflammation and irregular skin turnover... Tranexamic acid calms and soothes the skin! It's hard to find the concentrate, so this is the best! It also helps to control melasma, making my skin one tone brighter.
