The Best Fading Serum I’ve Used
I’ve been using Topicals Faded Serum for a while now, and I can see why it’s so popular for dark spots and hyperpigmentation. It has a mix of powerful ingredients like tranexamic acid and niacinamide that really help brighten the skin over time. The texture is lightweight but a little tacky, and the scent is pretty strong at first, which might take some getting used to. I did notice some slight irritation in the beginning, but after sticking with it, my skin started to look more even. If you’re dealing with stubborn dark spots, it’s definitely worth trying—just be patient and consistent!

Scars Disappearing Right Before My Eyes!
I started using the topicals serum back in January. I’ve been battling with hyperpigmentation for the last couple of years and nothing seemed to really be getting these stubborn spots. This serum had such a smooth and creamy consistency and you only needed a little bit to smooth over my face and neck. I didn’t really get a smell from it but it could’ve also been because of the other fragrant products I use. I didn’t start to see any results until halfway through the tube. After that I noticed my dark spots have diminished substantially! I can’t believe the difference from then to now. Also I felt no irritation while using this product, something that’s really important to me. I’m super excited I finally found something that can clear up complexion and get my skin on the right track.
