A light brightening serum for dark spots and a tired, uneven tone
Ducray Melascreen Anti-Spots Radiance Serum is a brightening serum for all skin types with dark spots and a dull, uneven complexion. Its short formula pairs stabilized vitamin C (ascorbyl glucoside), which boosts radiance and has antioxidant properties, with niacinamide (vitamin PP), which helps even out the skin tone. Together they help fade dark spots and protect the skin from everyday oxidative stress. In the brand's tests, radiance improved by 88% and skin tone looked more even for 73% of users, with up to 24 hours of hydration.
The texture
A fluid, lightweight serum that absorbs quickly without stickiness, so it layers easily under a moisturizer or sunscreen.
Who it suits
- Dark spots from the sun, age or old blemishes
- Dull, tired-looking skin
- An uneven tone across the face and neckline
- All skin types
Worth knowing before you buy: it contains fragrance. Dark spots come back quickly without sun protection, so pair it with a high SPF such as the Melascreen SPF50+ cream every morning.
How long one bottle lasts
Used morning and evening on the face and neckline, the 40ml bottle lasts around 2 months.
