When you first start using Enlighten Gold, pigmentation may appear darker before it lightens, which is normal. It’s because the areas of pigmentation are more stubborn and as skin tone generally starts to change, the pigmented areas are slower to change than the surrounding skin, which can, at first, make spots look more visible. Give it 3–4 months of consistent use: it's the safest, most evidence-based way to reduce pigmentation.
For even better results, we recommend targeting all four pathways of melanin production. That’s where Vitamin B3 and Retinal (Vitamin A) come in; both are included in our Hero Kit and Pigmentation Kit to help accelerate and support long-term pigment fading. Vitamin C is also suggested as a 4th pathway, however it is unstable and does not mix well with many other ingredients. While the evidence for stabilised forms of Vitamin C (like Ascorbyl Tetraisopalmitate) are weak, it has been included in the hope that evidence for it will improve in the future.
