Hada Labo Shirojyun Premium Whitening Lotion 20 ingredients
Great product to prevent hyperpigmentation and sun spots due to the tranexamic acid, licorice root, and vit C derivative. My post acne marks fade a lot faster. Very gentle and hydrating to use daily, it spreads and absorbs easily. My dry acne prone skin loves this, no comedogenic, no alcohol or fragrance.

Not sure if it’s just my current routine, pero the Hada Labo Gokujyun Show more

overall i'd say this is, at the very Show more
