What should you know about The Better You glutathione, kojic acid and vitamin C?

Glutathione is an antioxidant used in cosmetic brightening routines. Kojic acid can reduce pigment production by interfering with an enzyme involved in melanin formation, while vitamin C supports antioxidant care and can help the appearance of uneven tone. The blend is intended for surface pigmentation concerns; it cannot identify why a new dark mark appeared. Pigmentation may return when sunlight, hormonal changes, inflammation or repeated irritation continue.

Check the full ingredient list and apply the product exactly as directed. Introduce one new active at a time on a small area first, especially if your skin is sensitive or you already use exfoliants or retinoids. Stop if burning, swelling, blistering or a persistent rash develops. Use broad-spectrum sunscreen and protective clothing because ultraviolet exposure can deepen discoloration and undermine progress. Avoid applying it to broken skin, eyelids or freshly irritated areas.

Arrange a dermatology assessment for a spot that changes in size, shape or colour, bleeds, crusts or does not heal. Seek advice when widespread darkening appears suddenly, pigmentation follows a severe rash, or treatment causes marked irritation. A clinician can distinguish post-inflammatory marks, melasma, medication-related changes and other conditions before choosing a stronger treatment.

Ask whether the pattern fits melasma or another cause, whether each active suits your skin type, and how to combine the product with sunscreen or prescribed treatment. Discuss pregnancy, breastfeeding, eczema, allergies and any medicines that may affect your plan.
