The MECCA view

Allies of Skin's potent formulation of 3% Tranexamic Acid, 2% Alpha Arbutin, 7.5% Diacetyl Boldine & Licorice Complex, and 8.1% Red Algae & Pea Complex helps visibly reduce the appearance of stubborn discoloration and uneven skin tone. Combining proven brighteners with modern-day clinically backed antioxidants, we've developed our ultimate solution for those dreaming of luminous skin without the effects of exfoliants and reduced risk of irritation.

We added Diacetyl Boldine & Licorice Complex and a Red Algae & Pea Complex for enhanced effects on evening dullness, increasing luminosity, preventing and fading the appearance of dark spots.

Even when your skin is sensitised, our serum is the perfect way to help strengthen and support your complexion. Tranexamic Acid helps support the skin barrier, while brighteners and peptides supercharge radiance and firmness. With its liquid-soft, smooth texture, this serum sinks easily into the skin.

Key ingredients

3% Tranexamic Acid: A powerhouse ingredient that can help reduce the appearance of discolouration, fade dark spots, and even irregular skin tones for visibly brighter, less dull skin over time. It can also accelerate skin barrier recovery.

2% Alpha Arbutin: A plant-derived extract that works deeply on the skin to help visibly brighten, while also providing antioxidant protection. Evens and brightens skin tone and reduces appearance of excess discolouration, like dark spots or marks.

6 Brighteners & Peptides: This formula includes 6 brighteners and peptides, such as 2% Licorice Root extract for brightening and 1% Aldavine X5 to reduce redness appearance, enhancing skin tone and firmness.

Diacetyl Boldine & Licorice Complex: A complex with skin brightening properties, it helps diminish the look of hyperpigmentation and can help prevent dark spots from developing.

Red Algae & Pea Complex: A powerful combination that increases skin luminosity and promotes a more even skin tone and texture.

Made without

Parabens, fragrance, alcohol, silicones & sulphates.

Pro-tip

As this Brightening Serum does not exfoliate this skin, it can be used in combination with other skincare actives, including exfoliants, if so desired, as well as alongside other stimulating actives such as Retinoids without the risk of sensitising the skin.

Direct from the brand

"I wanted to create a brightening formula that didn't rely on high amounts of acids or niacinamide, as we're seeing this ingredient in every formula now and I wanted to offer something unique. This formula combines some of my favorite supercharged brighteners include Diacetyl Boldine and Red Algae and Pea Complex, alongside the Tranexamic Acid and Alpha Arbutin, so this formula not only targets dark spots but also the look of redness, uneven tone and provides a glass-skin finish" - Nicolas Travis, Founder & CEO.
