What is tranexamic acid?
Tranexamic acid (TXA) is a brightening ingredient that interrupts one of the signals telling skin to make extra pigment after sun and inflammation. In serums (2–5%) it helps fade post-acne marks and stubborn uneven tone, and it is gentle enough for daily use, including on sensitive skin.
