Sodium Hyaluronate — A humectant that holds water in the upper skin — pure hydration, tolerated by essentially everyone, at any concentration.

Pure hydration — suits everyone, and dry or dehydrated skin most of all. Apply on damp skin and seal it in.

Alpha-Arbutin — A gentle, stable brightener that fades dark spots by slowing melanin production — a milder route to even tone than acids. The label states 2%. Works from ~1%. OTC cap 2%. Give it 8–12 weeks for dark spots. Suits all skin types. A gentle, stable brightener that fades dark spots without the sting of acids — fine for every skin type. Good value: beats 83% of the 7 Alpha-Arbutin serums that state their strength.
