Ingredients in ANUA Niacinamide 10% + TXA 4% Dark Spot Correcting Serum (30ml)

10% Niacinamide: A form of Vitamin B3, Niacinamide helps to improve skin health in various ways, such as soothing, brightening, hydrating, and evening out texture.

4% Tranexamic Acid: An active ingredient that targets and fades dark spots and other areas of discolouration - ideal for treating uneven skin tone or acne scars.

2% Arbutin: Found naturally in the leaves and bark of various plants, Arbutin is a skin-brightening agent that inhibits melanin production, fades pigmentation, and increases the overall luminosity of the skin.

3-O-Ethyl Ascorbic Acid: An innovative form of vitamin C that penetrates deeper into the skin, this ingredient brightens, boosts collagen production, and protects skin cells from the harmful effects of free radicals.

FAQs about ANUA Niacinamide 10% + TXA 4% Dark Spot Correcting Serum (30ml)

How does it work on dark spots?

It uses four brightening ingredients that work in slightly different ways:

10% Niacinamide reduces the look of existing dark marks and brightens overall tone
4% Tranexamic Acid (TXA) focuses on patches of hyperpigmentation and post-acne marks
2% Arbutin helps slow melanin production, so fewer new spots form
Vitamin C derivative adds antioxidant protection and a further brightening boost

Hyaluronic Acid and Ceramides are also included to keep skin comfortable throughout.

What are the active ingredients and what do they each do?

This serum layers several brightening and barrier-supporting actives:

10% Niacinamide (Vitamin B3): soothes, brightens, hydrates, and helps refine texture and pores
4% Tranexamic Acid (TXA): fades dark spots and post-acne marks, and helps even out discolouration
2% Arbutin (plus Alpha-Arbutin): slows melanin production to fade existing pigmentation and help prevent new spots forming
3-O-Ethyl Ascorbic Acid (a stable Vitamin C derivative): brightens, supports collagen production, and offers antioxidant protection
Hyaluronic Acid (multiple forms) + Glycerin: hydrate and plump for a dewy, bouncy finish
Ceramide NP: strengthens the skin barrier and helps lock in moisture
Centella Asiatica, Mugwort + plant extracts: calm redness and support barrier repair

Is it okay for sensitive skin?

Yes, it's suitable for all skin types, including sensitive skin. That said, it contains several brightening actives (niacinamide, TXA (4%), arbutin, and a vitamin C derivative), so if your skin is on the reactive side, a patch test before full use is a good idea.

Will it help with oiliness and uneven texture?

It depends on what you're looking for. This serum focuses on brightening, fading dark spots, and evening out skin tone. Niacinamide can help regulate sebum production over time, so you may notice your skin feels less oily with consistent use.

For bumpy texture or congested pores, you'd get better results pairing this with an exfoliating or pore-care product.

Can I use this with the NUMBUZIN No.9+ NAD+ Bio Lifting-sil Essence?

Yes. The two work well together because they focus on different things: the NUMBUZIN essence supports firming and lifting, while this serum focuses on brightening and dark spots.

Apply in this order:

Cleanser
NUMBUZIN essence
This serum
Moisturiser
SPF (AM only)

What moisturiser would pair well with this serum?

A few good options depending on your skin's needs:

Soon Jung 2x Barrier Intensive Cream (Etude House), a fragrance-free, gentle formula that works well if redness or sensitivity is your main concern
Innisfree Birch Juice Moisturising Cream: lighter feel, suits combination skin nicely, and works as a solid all-rounder

Apply your serum first, let it absorb, then follow with either moisturiser.

Is it safe to use during pregnancy?

We'd recommend using this one with caution during pregnancy. The formula contains a BHA derivative and arbutin, which are worth flagging to your midwife or GP before use. When in doubt, it's always best to check with a healthcare professional.

What's the texture like, and will it leave my skin looking greasy?

It has a lightweight, watery gel texture that absorbs quickly without any heavy residue. The finish is dewy rather than greasy, so it works well under moisturiser and SPF during the day.
