DETAILS

Dr. Murad's next generation of powerhouse brightening ingredients take on the look of the most stubborn dark spots while treating your skin with the same care that a dermatologist would. This transformative, daily use skincare serum goes one step beyond correction with Patented Resorcinol Technology and tranexamic acid, that helps prevent the look of dark spots and discoloration for more even skin tone in the future. Glycolic acid, one of the first and most sought-after exfoliants in Dr. Murad's dermatology practice, removes dulling surface skin cells to quickly enhance natural radiance, penetration, and performance of ingredients for better results.
