Dark spots and uneven skin tone are among the hardest concerns to tackle — not because skin can't renew itself, but because most products don't contain high enough concentrations of the right ingredients. This serum from Korean Essence combines 10% niacinamide with 4% tranexamic acid, a powerful pairing that blocks melanin transfer and breaks down existing dark spots. Ceramide NP strengthens the skin barrier throughout the treatment and sodium hyaluronate delivers deep hydration so skin doesn't dry out. The result is visibly more even, brighter, more radiant skin — without irritation.

EFFECTIVE BRIGHTENING
Why concentration is everything when it comes to dark spots
Most brightening products contain concentrations of active ingredients too low to deliver visible results. Korean Essence Dark Spot Serum is formulated with 10% niacinamide and 4% tranexamic acid, two of the most clinically studied ingredients for treating hyperpigmentation and uneven skin tone.
Niacinamide works by blocking the transfer of melanin into surface skin cells, while tranexamic acid reduces melanin production at the source. Together they deliver a two-stage treatment that shows results faster than either ingredient alone.
Ceramide NP strengthens the skin barrier throughout the treatment and sodium hyaluronate keeps skin comfortable and hydrated so it doesn't dry out.

FAQs
Everything you need to know before starting your routine with this serum from Korean Essence.
How quickly can I expect to see results?
+
Many people notice a brighter, more even skin tone after just 2 weeks. For a visible reduction in dark spots we recommend daily use for 4 to 8 weeks.
Can I use the serum on sensitive skin?
+
Yes. The formula is mild and non-irritating and suits most skin types, including sensitive skin. We recommend starting with one application a day and building up to morning and night as your skin adjusts.
Can I use it under sunscreen and makeup?
+
Absolutely. Apply the serum as one of the first steps in your routine, let it absorb for 1 to 2 minutes, then layer moisturiser and sunscreen over the top.
Is it safe to combine niacinamide and tranexamic acid?
+
Yes. The two ingredients work in different ways against pigmentation and complement each other. Niacinamide blocks melanin transfer while tranexamic acid reduces melanin production at the source.
Can I use the serum morning and night?
+
Yes. The serum is formulated for daily use, morning and night. In the morning we recommend always finishing with sunscreen over the top to protect your skin and preserve your results.
Is the serum suitable for all skin types?
+
Yes. The formula is non-comedogenic, fragrance-free and suitable for all skin types including oily, dry, combination and sensitive skin.
How do I apply the serum correctly?
+
Apply 3 to 4 drops to cleansed, dried skin. Massage gently into the skin using light upward motions until fully absorbed. Follow with moisturiser and sunscreen in the morning.
Can I use the serum alongside retinol or acids?
+
Niacinamide pairs well with most ingredients. We recommend not combining it with strong acids like AHA/BHA or retinol at the same time — use them at different points in the day or week instead.
