Dark Spot Correcting Glow Serum

The AXIS-Y Dark Spot Correcting Glow Serum is a targeted brightening treatment designed to visibly fade dark spots, post-acne marks, and uneven pigmentation while delivering an all-over radiance boost. Formulated with AXIS-Y's signature microbiome-friendly approach, it works with your skin barrier — not against it.

What it does

This serum delivers multi-mechanism brightening: it targets existing dark spots at the source while preventing new pigmentation from forming. With consistent use, expect a more even skin tone, visibly reduced post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation, and a dewy glow finish that works on all skin tones — including deeper complexions. It pairs directly with the rest of the hyperpigmentation range at BeautyOnTApp.

Key actives

The formula centres on a brightening complex featuring niacinamide and tranexamic acid — two of the most clinically supported ingredients for dark spot correction — alongside centella asiatica extract for soothing and barrier support. AXIS-Y's clean formulation ethos means no unnecessary irritants, making this suitable for sensitive and reactive skin types.

How to use

Apply 2–3 drops to clean skin after toning, morning and/or evening. Press gently into the skin — do not rub. Follow with moisturiser. Always finish your morning routine with a broad-spectrum SPF, as brightening actives increase UV sensitivity. For maximum efficacy, use consistently for a minimum of 8 weeks.

Where it fits in your routine

This is a treatment serum — use it after essence and before moisturiser. It can be layered with a tranexamic acid toner for an enhanced brightening routine, or used alone as your sole active.
