Ingredients Explained

Other benefits include smoothing wrinkles and minimizing redness.
The cherry on top? Niacinamide can also help build keratin, a protein that keeps skin firm.
When incorporating niacinamide into your routine, look out for concentration amounts. Typically, 5% niacinamide provides benefits such as fading dark spots. However, if you have sensitive skin, it is better to begin with a smaller concentration.
Niacinamide can be mixed with other ingredients to boost benefits. For instance, it has shown to be effective when used with copper, folic acid, and zinc to treat acne.

This one works at removing dark spots, but it has to be consistent. My skin typically tastes months, plural, before marks lighten up. This one managed to make a scar mark disappear within a month. A small one, yes, but given everything I've tried, that's pretty promising.
Now that I've gotten more marks, it's time to see how well it works at eliminating them. Second round!
