SHSEIDO white lucent spot targeting serum+

I bought this serum with a prospect of it can lighten one of my spot due to sensitive,will this work???


Firstly,start with the product claim .The 2012 updated whitening serum has a updated ingredient that can help to diminish the dark spot in 10 days,wao how fast is that,this is the shortest time I ever seen in the advertisement for a whitening essence to work because normally whitening products have to take around 28 days to see the result,for example SK2 whitening spot specialist also takes 28 days,I will update that product`s detail next time.

Ingredients:

Water (Aqua), SD-Alcohol 40B (Alcohol Denat.), Glycerin, PEG-15, Tranexamic Acid, Cetyl Ehthylhexanoate, PEG/PPG 14/7 Dimethyl Ether, Potassium Methoxysalicylate, Dimethicone, Isostearate Acid, Phenoxyethanol, Carbomer, Lauryl Betaine, Potassium Hydroxide, Xanthan Gum, Butylene Glycol, Acrylates/C10-30 Alkyl Acrylate Crosspolymer, 2-0-Ethyl Ascorbic Acid, Fragrance (Parfum), Disodium EDTA, Tocopheryl Acetate, Glucosyl Hesperidin, Polyquaternium-51, Sodium Metabisulfite, Limonene, Sodium Hyaluronate, Benzyl Benzoate, Serine, Artemisia Princeps Leaf Extract, Sodium Benzoate

The special things about this serum is that it contains
tranexamic acid and potassium
methoxysalicylate(4MSK!).Both of them are very powerful whitening ingredients,but also have to depend on the ingredients` concentration.Tranexamic acid is used in the hospital to prevent breaking down of blood clot so it is really a safety whitening ingredient,don`t have to worry too much.For 4 MSK ,that is really rare in the market,base on what I know only shiseido and neogence(a taiwan brand) use this ingredient in their products.

*When we want to know is that a whitening product will work,it is crucial to know the concentration of the ingredient,we have to ensure that the active ingredient such as 4MSK,vitamin C,arbutin or tranexamic acid is within the  top one third of the ingredient list only that the active ingredient is concentrate enough to work.So from the list we can see that the active ingredients,both of them are in the top one third of the ingredient list~!However it contains alcohol denat as the solvent,so possibly it may cause allergic reaction to some of you.On top of that,fragrance and preservative(phenoxyethanol) may cause allergic reaction also because it is considered high concentration since these ingredients are still at the top half of the ingredient list.

The texture of the serum is really light and easy to spread out and after applying the serum definitely can be fully absorbed by the skin without any sticky feeling this is a good property since we live in a topical country.Another good thing about this serum is that it does not has any sparkling particle that may be found in some of the whitening serums in the market.It also comes with a light floral smell ,this maybe an advantage for some of you looking for fragrance therapy product,but I don`t emphasis on that since I have sensitive skin.The most important thing is the effect,after using for two weeks,if I observe my spot properly,the spot definitely lighten but not decrease in size,it also fasten the fade off of any blemish scar,so the claim is not kidding us.This whitening serum will not dry out your skin like most of the whitening serums,after applying you really will feel hydrate,for normal to combination skin people I think you would not have the necessity to add on another hydrating serum.


Twice a day,apply this after toner before moisturizer,directly spread that on your face and until the neck,add on another pump on spot area.If my skin looks dull,personally I will use this to massage the whole face,and the effect is obvious also.Besides that* if your spot is very serious try to apply a large amount on the spot area then put on a cotton soaked with whitening lotion ,this will speed up the spot fading process but sure la,you have to use alot of this serum =(


Pro:effective in whitening and hydrating ,light texture


Cons:expensive(even more expensive than SK2),may cause sensitive for some of you
