Description Summary How to use Key Ingredients Works Well With

NeoStrata® Illuminating Serum multi-action concentrate is a gentle exfoliator to help fade existing dark marks, evens out skin tone, and brightens skin. Suitable for all skin types with hyperpigmentation. Not for sensitive or rosacea-prone skin.

Key ingredients include patented NeoGlucosamine™ which increases cellular turnover. Tetrahexyldecyl Ascorbate (Vitamin C) is a powerful but tolerable antioxidant that promotes skin brightening. Licorice Root Extract and Resorcinol are well-studied ingredients for helping to prevent the formation of melanocytes. Niacinamide has multiple skin benefits including calming inflammation and supporting skin barrier repair. Additional skin brighteners within this formulation help to break up and reduce existing dark marks. Powerful pigment-reducing Peptides help to inhibit tyrosinase and melanin production to discourage new pigmentation. Fragrance-free. Dermatologist-developed and tested.

Dr Webster’s Recommendation: NeoStrata® Illuminating Serum can be used as a booster both morning and evening for the maintenance of dark marks and hyperpigmentation. The formula is lightweight and would lend itself well to those with oily or combination skin, although for dry skin you could supplement with a moisturiser over it. Always apply sunscreen when using this product during the day to avoid further pigmentation. Best used with other products in this range – Ultra Brightening Cleanser and Pigment Controller.

Strength: 6% NeoGlucosamine | 4% Niacinamide Product Size: 30ml SPF: N/A Application Area:  Face Paraben Free: Yes Use: PM/AM

  • Apply serum to face and neck after cleansing in the morning and evening.
  • Allow sufficient time in between application of various products for maximum product penetration.
  • Always use a good quality, high factor broad spectrum sunscreen during the day to avoid further pigmentation as this product does not contain one.

Product Rating:

I would highly recommend, it’s not sticky, blends on skin effortlessly. I was first introduced to this product 3 years ago and it is my go to vitamin c serum for pigmentation

Benita (verified owner) - 4 years ago

Product Rating:

This serum also works wonders. It really works on my dry and sensitive skin.

Tammy - 6 years ago

Product Rating:

I tried this product after it was recommended for my pigmentation. Firstly, the product lasted exactly 2 months which made it very affordable. The texture is light and has started lightening my pigmentation. It does require long term use.

Jo - 7 years ago

Product Rating:

I have been using this daily for the past 8 months on melasma which appeared 6 years ago on the top of my cheeks. I have tried tons of pigmentation correcting creams over the years with some minor improvements using the Obagi nuderm range a few years ago. However, the pigmentation has faded considerably (almost gone) since using the NeoStrata® Illuminating Serum! I have also been applying the Obagi Professional-C Serum 20% and believe the combination of these two products has been highly effective.
